Gene expression of brooding versus non-brooding females: All graphs show relative expression of Ct values (-ΔCt), bars and error bars show group means with SE. Lettering denotes significance; only genes with effects (p > 0.05) are shown. Graphs are sorted according to the significant factor. a Interaction of treatment (brooding (B) and control (C)) and challenge (Vibrio (+) and naïve (−)) b Treatment effects of brooding (in turquoise) versus non-brooding (brown) c Challenge effects of Vibrio (red) and PBS (blue) challenge
