a, Male and female adult zebrafish (3 mpf) were sampled from the same tank. Box plots show pth2 levels in relation to the mean level of male gene expression. Unpaired, one-sided t-test, p(n = 4, t = 0.40) = 0.69. b, Box plots show pth2 levels in adult zebrafish that were kept at densities of 5 and 35 per 3.5 l for one week, respectively. Expression levels were normalized to the mean level at the lower density. Unpaired, one-sided t-test, p(n = 6, t = 2.44) = 3.4E-2. Box plots in a and b represent the median (black line), the lower and upper quartile (box) with the whiskers indicating at most 1.5 × the interquartile range. Significance is reported as follows: *P < 0.05.
