Figure 2.

Survival kinetics of rotifer populations treated (100 µM) with KYNA or its analogs. The number and survival of individuals significantly increased in the three treated groups compared to untreated controls. KYNA and its SZR73 and SZR81 analogs had the most beneficial effect on both Philodina acuticornis (A) and Adineta vaga (B) species. The two different bdelloid rotifer genera show similar kinetics under the same treatments. The error bars represent SEM. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc test was used for statistical analysis, the level of significance is ***; ### p < 0.001 (*, significant difference in number of rotifers from untreated controls on day nine; # significant difference from untreated control in survival of animals; n = 12 wells).
