Value that differed significantly from comparator groups shown bold and italicized.
a
% expelled in 10 mM LEV differs significantly from worms of the same genotype treated with all other LEV concentrations (Fisher's Exact test, 2-tailed; P = 0.0001 to 0.03).
b
Value differs significantly from corresponding group of unc-63 worms treated with the same LEV concentration (P = 0.006).
