Sperm Precedence Data from the Rove Beetle

Description

Offspring counts and proportional paternity by mating order for a breeding experiment of the rove beetle conducted by T Benken et al., (1999).

Usage

data(rove)

Format

A data frame with 17 observations on the following 4 variables.

Female

a numeric vector to identify females.

Total_Offspring
