A Density plot showing variation in primary sex ratios for the five generations studied. B change in sex ratio bias over generations (weighted by brood size), with asterisks showing significant changes in the proportion of broods classified as male-biased (MB, >0.6) or female-biased (FB, <0.4) between successive generations, tested using a multinomial logistic regression with generation as a fixed effect. C Male and female offspring counts over generations, with asterisks showing statistical comparisons of clutch size between successive generations, tested using a linear mixed-effects model (brood size ~ generation + 1|founder line)). Asterisks represent significance levels (****P < 0.0001; ***P < 0.001; *P < 0.05).
