Figure 1.

(A) The influence of diet treatment on C. remanei (SP8 strain) on daily reproductive output after 6 days of either temporary fasting (TF in red; N = 50) or ad libitum (AL in blue; N = 49) access to food. Data were analyzed using mixed models in the lme4 package in R with Poisson error distribution and log-link function with individual as a random effect to account for repeated measures. Daily reproduction between diet treatments is not significant, but there is a difference in lifetime reproductive output with TF female producing more lifetime larvae than AL females. (B) The influence of maternal diet treatment on offspring reproduction (TF in red N = 50; AL in blue N = 48) starting at sexual maturity. Data were analyzed as in (A). Maternal diet treatment impact offspring reproduction with those from TF mothers showing reduced larval output (days 2 to 4) and reduced lifetime total number of larvae relative to offspring from AL mothers. Figure shows mean larval count ± se.
