Figure 3. Variation surrounding nath-10 affects the number of dauer larvae at food exhaustion in growing populations.

Figure 3

Box and whisker plots showing number of dauer larvae (top panels) and the population size (bottom panels) at exhaustion of 100 µl of 20% w/v food in two assays (left and right columns) in N2 and in JU1648, JU2041 and JU2047, lines with very fine introgressions of the nath-10(haw6805) allele in an N2 genetic background. The nath-10(haw6805) allele is the only common difference that distinguishes JU2041, JU2047, and JU1648 from N2, and JU2041 contains only two known alleles that differ from N2, nath-10(haw6805) and mfP19 (see [19] for further details). Asterisks indicate significant difference to N2 within that assay (p<0.05, post hoc testing by Fisher’s Least Significant Difference).
