Figure 4. LFD and ACF in hybrids compared with N. furzeri GRZ and N. kadleci.

(A) LFD enrichment at 16w in F1 and F2 hybrids compared to parental populations at 16 weeks (B) ACF at 16w in F1 and F2 hybrids and parental populations at 16 weeks. Boxes represent 25th – 75th quartiles, whiskers show maximum and minimum data points excluding outliers (circles above whiskers), line in box is median, circle in box is mean. Significant differences are indicated by asterisks: (*) = P < 0.05, (**) = P < 0.01 and (***) = P < 0.001, Mann-Whitney U-test. N is number of individuals evaluated.
