Figure 2. Severity of daf-2 allele affects recovery of pharyngeal pumping during starvation.

Young adults (20 per group) from the various strains indicated in A) & B) were grown overnight at 25°C and pharyngeal pumping was measured as described above. To simplify the figure, we have only shown the 99% confidence intervals around the means of the N2 control groups. Experimental group means lying outside these intervals are significantly different from the controls with a p value <0.01.
