Long-term behavior recordings were used to extract features of egg-laying active and inactive behavior states for the indicated genotypes, as described (Waggoner et al. 1998). “*” indicates significant differences compared to wild-type animals (P < 0.0001, Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s correction for multiple comparisons), “‡” indicates significant differences compared to wildtype (P < 0.0001, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction).
