Induction of spawning in Aiptasia. (a) Schematic of initial spawning induction conditions during two consecutive 29-day artificial lunar cycles. Temperature and moon cue indicated; color of the circle refers to color of the simulated moon cue (see text). (b,c) Spawning synchronicity and efficiency in [F003 x CC7] couples (b) and [H2 x CC7] couples (c) under the induction conditions in (a).(d) Schematics of various spawning induction conditions A-D for a direct comparison of spawning cues in [F003xCC7] couples. (e) Number of spawning events by five couples in each of the four induction conditions in (d) over one 29-day artificial lunar cycle. Error bars are standard deviations. (f) Quantification of total larvae per condition produced during the larvae spawning events shown in (e).
