Male early-life fitness (competitive paternity share): proportion of the scored first-instar larvae that were sired by the DGRP males, i.e. FocalLarv_Early / (FocalLarv_Early + RivalLarv_Early). 5 virgin males of the DGRP line (2-3 days old at the start) competed with 10 GFP-marked males for 15 virgin bw females in a food vial for 3 days; the females then laid eggs for 24 h and up to 200 L1 larvae were scored for GFP (the males were 5-6 days old at the end of the 3-day interaction). Computed per vial (one value per group of 5 males), as the authors did for their repeatability estimates. NA for 1 vial with no larva scored and 2 vials with missing counts (the authors imputed these 3 vials for their line means). [Proportion / Ratio]
