esg transcript amounts in unmated mutant and revertant flies and embryos. Transcript amounts in (A) unmated males of different ages; (B) 1 day-old unmated males; (C) embryos. Two biological repeats were done in the first experiment with 1- and 20- day-old males (A). Three biological repeats were done in the first experiment with 10-day-old males (A), in the second experiment with 1-day-old males (B), and in the experiment with embryos (C). The paragraph sign denotes marginally significant differences (^§P < 0.10) and the asterisk denotes significant differences (^*P < 0.05) as determined by the Kruskall-Wallis test.
