Distribution of the 1,000 bootstraped Internal Relatedness IR (A), pairwise-relatedness r (B) and MHC allele-sharing (C). IRobs, IRobswithin-pair and IRobsextra-pair correspond to the observed IR computed on the entire sample of chicks, chicks produced by social males and chicks produced by extra-pair males, respectively. robssocial, Dobssocial correspond to the observed r and allele-sharing between the female and her social mate. robsgenetic, Dobsgenetic corresponds to the observed r and allele-sharing between the female and her extra-pair mate.
