Social interest. Female Tph2 wildtype (WT) and knockout (KO) mice (focal animals) were housed together with a female of the same or the other genotype (partner animal), resulting in four combinations (focal animal/partner animal, n = 10 each): WT/WT, WT/KO, KO/WT and KO/KO. Behaviour was recorded on day 1 and day 5. Data are presented as boxplots with medians and 25–75% quartiles (box). The whiskers range from the minimum to the maximum of those observations with a distance from the box of less than 1.5 times the length of the box. Observations outside this area are represented as circles. Statistics: see Methods section; (a) approaching on day 1; (b) approaching on day 5; (c) ano-genital sniffing on day 1; (d) ano-genital sniffing on day 5.
