indicates significant differences from the control (p < 0.05).

All data represent the entire study period (from 21 hpf to 14 dpf). Time to hatch (dpf) was not significantly different between groups and thus we report only hatching success (%). The cumulative number of hatched larvae was recorded for the determination of hatching success, and the cumulative mortality of embryos and larvae was recorded for the determination of survival.
