Reproductive output.

Source colony was a significant factor (p ≤ 0.034) for numbers of eggs, larvae, and combined offspring. Row headings (left) show number of replicates for each treatment and source

Presented as mean ( x¯) number of individuals per microcolony ± 1 standard error of the mean (SEM), with F and p-values from ANOVA where relevant: * indicates a significant difference for a given offspring type at α = 0.05. OxO concentration was not a significant factor for any reproductive measurement (p ≥ 0.220).
