  1. CK: Blank control; NFP: Non-flowering (vegetative) plants; FP: Flowering plants. Numbers in front and after backslashes (/) denote the number of adults preferring CK and FP or NFP and FP, respectively. Of the 60 individuals tested per treatment, the number of no-responses ranged from 3 to 13. Data in brackets show P values from χ2 goodness-of-fit test.
