Abbreviations: Inseminated, females who had daughters (Only male offspring can be produced by parthenogenesis in T. urticae); compatible, inseminated females that produced hatching eggs; incompatible, inseminated females that produced non-hatching eggs. X 2 test, df = 1. w, infected strain; u, uninfected strain.
