    A new method is developed for the estimation of the amount of concurrent multiple paternity in natural populations based on progeny array data. This method is particularly useful in organisms scored at loci with low allelic diversity. This method can also be used to combine information from several independent loci to obtain an overall concurrent multiple paternity estimate. Examples of the use of this method are presented for mallard, Drosophila, and milkweed data sets.
