Figure 2

Number of brown (red bar) and grey (grey bar) offspring colour morphs produced by different combinations of parental colour morphs (B×B, B×G and G×G). The first columns show the observations in the field, second, third and fourth columns show the expected number of offspring colour morphs according to models with brown dominance, grey dominance and an additive genetic model, respectively. The lines above the bars show a G-test of association between models and their significance (NS: P=0.58, **P<0.002, ***P<0.0001).
