Data from: Parental genetic similarity and offspring performance in blue tits in relation to brood size manipulation ...
In birds, as in many other taxa, the level of genetic similarity between parents is an important source of variation in offspring fitness. The majority of avian studies which explore the influence of mates’ genetic similarity on offspring viability have focused on hatching success as a viability mea...
