Figure 3From: Evidence that pairing with genetically similar mates is maladaptive in a monogamous birdRelationship between heterozygosity and chick survival in 2005. We show the correlation between chick survival up to 25 days of age and chick heterozygosity estimated by the H index calculated over all loci. Chicks that survived 25 days were significantly more heterozygous than chicks that died (see the text for statistical tests).Back to article page
