Figure 4.

(A) Ovipositional rates of homozygous v and Met²⁷ females. Each point represents the mean (± SEM bars) daily oviposition of single females (n = 25) of various genotypes at the indicated times after eclosion. Open circles, v Met²⁷; open triangles, v Met²⁷/Df(1)N71; solid triangles, w v Met²⁷; p, [w⁺EN71]/+; solid circles, v. (B) Total vitellogenic oocytes per female as a function of time after eclosion. Each point represents the mean number of total stage 8–14 oocytes per female contained in staged females (n = 40) at the indicated times. Solid circles, v; open circles, v Met²⁷.
