From: Variation in cyanogenic compounds concentration within a Heliconius butterfly community: does mimicry explain everything?

Fig. 3

Mean and standard deviation (lines) of the concentration μg of NaCN per mg for each species. *** stands for significant difference with P < 0.001, ** for significant difference with P <0.01, * for significant difference with P < 0.05 between co-mimics. Letters stand for significant differences in the comparisons on the concentration of NaCN between mimicry rings (p < 0.05). On the top left corner is an example of a cyanogenic glucoside molecule (linamarin), showing the glycosidic bond between the glycine and the aglycone part that was broken off during hydrolysis
