Kenyon cell proliferation in adult beetles under different conditions. Median numbers of EdU positive (adult-born) Kenyon cells per neuroblasts within 24 hours after EdU injection. Sample sizes for each group (analysed neuroblasts [N] and animals[n]) are given in the respective column of the plot. The circles represent the median, while the error bars represent the 95% confidence interval of the median equivalent to the standard error calculated by bootstrap analysis. Kruskal Wallis test with posthoc analysis using Dunns’ multiple comparison test was used to compare the cell number over the different injection times within one experimental group. The results of the Kruskal Wallis test [test statistics corrected for ties (H), p-value (p)] for each condition is given in the figure. Same capital letters indicate groups with no significant difference to each other as obtained by Dunn’s posthoc analysis (p > 0.05, Holm-corrected). The actual p-values of the post-hoc test are listed in Supplementary Table S2. Original photo of the beetle by Peggy Greb, USDA Agricultural Research Service (ID: D268-1).
