Figure 5

Effects of preening and immune defenses on fly survival by sex. Both female (A) and male (B) flies were significantly affected by preening defense (see text for statistics). However, only female flies (C) were affected by host immune defense over the course of 5 weeks; male flies (D) did not differ significantly (see text).
