Emergence time under deviant T-cycles. (a) Average adult-emergence profiles of the three strains (n > 8 vials; 300 eggs/vial) under T20 averaged across cycles where percentage emergence is plotted against zeitgeber time. (b) Box plot shows period values obtained by COSINOR analysis for each strain under T20. (c) Adult-emergence profiles of the three strains (n > 8 vials; 300 eggs/vial) under T28 averaged across cycles where percentage emergence is plotted against zeitgeber time. (d) Box plot shows period values obtained by COSINOR analysis for each vial under T28. (e) Median pre-adult emergence time for each strain (n > 9 vials; 30 eggs/vial) calculated as average of medians across vials when assayed under LD 10:10 (T20) at 25 °C. Asterisk shows that perl differs significantly from other strains (p < 0.05) based on Kruskal-Wallis test for multiple independent samples. (f) Median pre-adult emergence time for each strain (n > 9 vials; 30 eggs/vial) calculated as average of medians across vials when assayed under LD 14:14 (T28) at 25 °C. Asterisk shows that pers differs significantly from other strains (p < 0.05) based on Kruskal-Wallis test for multiple independent samples. All other details are similar to Fig. 1
