Abstract excerpt
Allozyme polymorphisms have been used frequently in laboratory mating experiments to study patterns of sperm utilization in multiply mated females. In some instances, due either to chance or to design, there is a diagnostic difference between male genotypes that allows unambiguous assignment of paternity. In other instances, there is some overlap in allelic composition of males, so that attribution of paternity...
