Eclosion profiles of cry0, cryb, and cry+ cultures were obtained from three independent monitorings, each of which encompassed two eclosion-monitor “discs” (cf. Konopka et al. 1994) for cry0 and cryb, and one for cry+ pupae. Data from all tests were pooled and analyzed together for a given genotype to estimate a combined period value (τ in hours), using autocorrelation (Autocorr) and MESA. AR, arrhythmic; N, total numbers of emergents; ND, not done.
