*

Expected proportions are computed from the number emerging on a day and the number of infected and uninfected individuals overall (i.e., corrected for survivorship differences between strains).

Days after hatching to eclosion. Males were sampled on days 8, 10, and 12 and females were sampled on days 9, 11, and 13.

Observed numbers of Wolbachia-infected and uninfected adults on each day of eclosion.

§

Expected numbers of adults emerging on each day, adjusted for survivorship differences between strains. Expected values are equal for each day of eclosion.

P value for contingency table, χ2 with degrees of freedom = 2, testing the deviation of observed ratio from expected due to chance (P < 0.05 in bold).
