  1. Presented data show the results of the Series II experiments, carried out in USA, using 3 ± 1 days old males. ARw PUS = w Pip infected; HTA = w AlbA single infected, HTB = w AlbB single infected. Number of total scored eggs are in parenthesis.
  2. Within a column, letters following the data indicate significant differences (P < 0.05) (Anova-Newman-Keuls Multiple Comparison Test).
