Box-plots showing fecundity (total egg production) and fitness (total adult offspring) in unplugged and plugged females. Plugged females produced significantly more eggs (Wilcoxon rank sums test: nplugged = 22; nunplugged = 23; Z = -2.66; p = 0.008) as well as offspring (Wilcoxon rank sums test: nplugged = 24; nunplugged = 24; Z = 2.25; p = 0.025) than unplugged females.
