  1. Generalised Linear Model (GLM type III Sum of Squares) of all parameters in our data and their influence on litter size. There are 24 degrees of freedom; the model has a coefficient of determination of R2 = 0.0627. COI 5, 10, 20, 30, meuw refer to the inbreeding coefficients of the litter, pat COI to the inbreeding coefficients of the sire, mat COI to the inbreeding coefficients of the dam.
