Fig. 1From: Assessment of parasite virulence in a natural population of a planktonic crustaceanOffspring of uninfected and infected D. magna females from the first (left panels) and second (right panel) sampling produced after the laboratory observation period. Differences are highly significant (Total fecundity: first sample: Mann-Whitney U Test, W = 4042.5, p = 3.4 × 10−16; second sample: W = 1179, p = 4.6 × 10−13; Number of offspring per clutch: first sample: W = 3976, p = 3.6 × 10−15, second sample: W = 1066, p = 1.8 × 10−9)Back to article page
