Effects of Nardonella infection, sex, and interaction between them on fitness components of E. postfasciatus analyzed by generalized linear mixed models.

*The two groups of insects were reared on artificial diets with and without 0.003% rifampicin, and the antibiotic-treated insects were mostly Nardonella-free while the untreated insects were mostly Nardonella-infected (see table 2).**The two groups of insects were reared on sweet potatoes without the antibiotic, and the offspring of the antibiotic-treated insects were all Nardonella-free while the offspring of the untreated insects all Nardonella-infected (see table 2).***In the 1st generation, therefore, not exactly reflecting Nardonella infection but actually antibiotic treatment.Statistically significant effects are highlighted by bold type.
