Figure 4.

Expression patterns (relative to actin-5)±s.e. of (a) attacinA (attA), (b) metchnikowin (mtk) and (c) serine protease 7 (sp7) for males (triangles) and females (circles) at several time points after mating. Closed symbols indicate that the expression level was significantly different from virgin levels (i.e. hour 0) within each sex even after a sequential Dunn–Šidák correction. ‘Asterisks’ indicate significant differences as detected across the sexes. ‘Daggers’ indicate that a significant difference was detected prior to a sequential Dunn–Šidák correction, but not after the correction was applied.
