Fig. 5: mHFD promotes an increase of stereotypic and repetitive behaviours in the marble burying task of adult offspring.

a Marbles burying paradigm is illustrated in the upper panel. b Results of the task are presented in the lower panel. Whisker graph shows minimum, median (line) and maximum, as well as individual data points (n = 6–10 litters/diet/sex, 8–12 animals/group). **P < 0.01 by 2-way ANOVA. ♀: female, ♂: male, CD: control diet, mHFD: maternal high-fat diet.
