Male late-life fitness (competitive paternity share): proportion of the scored first-instar larvae sired by the DGRP males, FocalLarv_Late / (FocalLarv_Late + RivalLarv_Late), in the second assay of the same vial: after the early-life assay the males aged in the vial (one transfer) and, at 14-15 days of age, were given 15 new 2-3-day-old virgin bw females for 3 days, followed by a 24 h egg collection scored for GFP (dead DGRP and GFP males not replaced). Computed per vial. NA for the 47 vials in which no larva was scored (counts 0 and 0) and for 3 vials with missing counts (DGRP_911, block E1). The authors' line-mean model counted the 47 empty vials as full paternity (see mn_MaleFit_LateAuth and the study comment). [Proportion / Ratio]
