Fig 4. Knockout of Or7a, Or59b and Or98a, but not of Or42b, abolished fly aversion to pyrethrum.

(A) Behavioral responses of w1118 and two Or98a-/- lines to pyrethrum at 50 μL of the 10−2 dilution (v v-1) (H = 21.80, d.f. = 2, P < 0.001; **P < 0.01 compared to w1118, One-Way ANOVA on Ranks, n = 13 for w1118, n = 21 for Or98a-/- 1, and n = 22 for Or98a-/- 2). (B) Behavioral responses of w1118 and two Or7a-/- lines to pyrethrum at 50 μL of the 10−2 dilution (v v-1) (H = 8.16, d.f. = 2, P = 0.017; *P < 0.05 compared to w1118, One-Way ANOVA on Ranks, n = 7 for w1118, n = 15 for Or7a-/- 1, and n = 7 for Or7a-/- 2). (C) Behavior responses of w1118 and two Or59b-/- lines to pyrethrum at 50 μL of the 10−2 dilution (v v-1) (F(2,52) = 7.92, P < 0.001; **P < 0.01 compared to w1118, One-Way ANOVA, n = 18 for w1118 and for Or59b-/- 1, and n = 19 for Or59b-/- 2). (D) Behavioral responses of w1118 and two Or42b-/- lines to pyrethrum at 50 μL of the 10−2 dilution (v v-1) (H = 0.47, d.f. = 2, P = 0.79; ns = not significant compared to w1118, One-Way ANOVA on Ranks, n = 5 for w1118, n = 10 for Or42b-/- 1, and n = 12 for Or42b-/- 2).
