From: Symbiont-conferred immunity interacts with effects of parasitoid genotype and intraguild predation to affect aphid immunity in a clone-specific fashion

Fig. 1

Aphid immunity subject to intraguild predation (IGP). The means (± SE) of IR (immunity ratio), representing aphid immunity to the parasitoid wasp, are shown centrally per aphid lineage with (light grey) and without (dark grey) IGP by the aphid lion. IR percentages, without IGP, are shown in dark grey; and in light grey with IGP. Each mean IR proportion is accompanied with detailed IR proportions for IR under the effect of the parasitoid genotype (daughters) that were the result of the Sire x Dam mating system (quantitative genetic design). In the absence of IGP sample sizes were as follows: n = 30 parasitoid daughters in the case of N116, and n = 30 in the case of Q1. In the presence of IGP: n = 43 parasitoid daughters in the case of N116, and n = 15 in the case of Q1. In total, there were 118 parasitoid daughters. The smallest uniform rectangles shown in the detailed IR illustration refer to IR of 0% i.e., lack of immunity
