Effect of larval and adult diet on daily egg production (the number of eggs produced per day) recorded across days 0–10 posteclosion for female D. melanogaster. The longitudinal patterns of daily egg production for D. melanogaster fed on the adult diet with P:C 1:8, 1:2, 2:1 and 8:1 are presented in the panel (a), (b), (c), and (d), respectively. In each panel, the patterns of daily egg production for D. melanogaster raised on the larval diet with P:C 1:8, 1:2, 2:1 and 8:1 are represented as blue, green, orange, and red lines, respectively
