Fig. 5From: Memory of social experience affects female fecundity via perception of fly depositsD. melanogaster females housed in groups are less likely to retain virgin eggs. Focal females were kept in ‘isolation’ (blue bars/boxes) or ‘group’ (housed with three Sudan Red-dyed non-focal females, red bars/boxes) treatments, for 3 days. A The proportion of virgin females laying ≥1 egg on days 1, 2 or 3 of social exposure. B Virgin egg counts of laying females (laying ≥ 1 egg on any given day) over 3 days of social exposure. Boxplots as in Fig. 1. Statistical significance values and standard error bars were derived from post hoc testing of modelsBack to article page
