TABLE 5.

Fitness assays of H. defensa-infected and uninfected aphid lines sharing the same genotype at 20 and 25°C^a

^aMeans (back-transformed), SE, and t test outcomes are presented for fresh weights (FW). For development time (TFR, in hours), median, quartiles 1 and 3 (Q1 and Q3), and comparisons based on Wilcoxon rank sum test are presented. For both FW and TFR, n represents the number of aphids screened. Means for cumulative fecundity (back-transformed) per cage and ANOVA t test outcomes, a comparison of aphid survival (up to day 13; 5 aphids per cage) logistic regression equation, and results of the likelihood ratio test are presented. For cumulative fecundity and survivorship, n is the number of aphid cages per line and are the same for both assays, except survivorship differed for lines AC1ab (n = 15) and SV1ab (n = 11) at 25°C (§). *, significant result after Bonferroni correction.
