Correction to: Heredity (2009) 103, 340–345; doi:10.1038/hdy.2009.80

The authors have discovered an error they would like to correct. Table 1 shows incorrect values for the coefficients of additive genetic variation (CVA). The correct values are as follows:

CVA: Longevity (total days)=22.3; Longevity (residual days)=26.8; Copulations duration (sons)=22.5; Copulation duration (daughters)=19.1.

We apologize for this error.
