The relationship among GRR, R0, and the preadult survival rate (la) is proven as R0 < la · GRR < GRR; however, when applying the female age-specific life table to a two-sex population, due to the difficulty in determining the pre adult mortality of the females, the calculated age- specific survival rate and fecundity are possibly incorrect and consequently the relationship amongGRR, G1, and la also may be incorrect.
