Table 6 Sex-specific effects of inbreeding on fitness (lifetime adult offspring production).

From: Sex differences in the genetic architecture of lifespan in a seed beetle: extreme inbreeding extends male lifespan

Sex Inbred F~0.89 Outbred F~0 Inbred/Outbred × 100
Female 30.96 (3.77) 89.02 (5.04) 35%
Male 42.60 (5.59) 90.50 (6.80) 47%
  1. Fitness assays of male and female C. maculatus beetles, data show lifetime adult offspring production (mean ± SE) and the relative value of inbred to outbred reproductive success in %.
