Fig. 1

Individual long-term contributions (c) and estimates of effective population size (N e ) based on those contributions. Long-term contributions for each individual to the last generation obtained from pedigree information (a) and estimates of N e obtained from individual contributions plotted against generations in the past (b). Each dot in (a) represents the contribution of one individual born ‘x’ generations ago to the last generation. For instance, the circled dot represents the contribution of an individual born one generation ago (i.e., generation 25) to the last generation (i.e., generation 26)
