-
There is a high degree of relatedness among the CDRS individuals exhibiting signatures of Floreana ancestry [mean pairwise relatedness (rxy) = 0.15].
-
To visualize the distribution of relatedness among the CDRS individuals of detected Floreana ancestry, the frequencies of observed pairwise rxy estimates for all possible comparisons were plotted with those calculated from simulated distributions of known relatedness (unrelated, half-sibling, full-sibling and parent-offspring) following the approach in Russello and Amato Lineage identification of captive Galápagos tortoises of unknown ancestry based on mtDNA and microsatellite data.

Yet, three of them (CDRS042-044) are likely grandmothers, exhibiting rxy ranging from 0. 23-0.31 with at least one individual of Floreana ancestry in the CDRS "progeny" pen.

(CDRS042-044) housed in the CDRS "parental" pen exhibit pairwise relatedness values consistent with full-sibling relationship (rxy = 0.40 − 0.61), while a fourth (CDRS040) appears to be their half-sibling rxy = 0.31 − 0.37).
