Additional file 2: Figure S1. of The Toll pathway underlies host sexual dimorphism in resistance to both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria in mated Drosophila
Sexual dimorphism in survival to infection of inbred populations. (A) Survival of the genotype Canton S upon infection by the Gram-negative bacteria P. alcalifaciens. Females were more susceptible than males (Cox-ph: Sex: df = 1, χ2 = 11.94, P = 0.0005). (B) Dose response in survival of the genotype Oregon R to P. rettgeri infection. Females were more susceptible than males (Cox-ph: Sex: df = 1, χ2 = 15.95, P < 0.0001) and the dose had an effect on survival (Dose: df = 1, χ2 = 16.59, P = 0.0002) but this effect was dependent on the host sex (Dose*Sex: df = 1, χ2 = 6.13, P = 0.04). (C) Dose response in survival of Canton S to the Gram-positive E. faecalis. Females were more susceptible than males (Cox-ph: Sex: df = 1, χ2 = 29.061, P < 0.0001) and the dose had an effect on survival (Dose: df = 1, χ2 = 16.51, P < 0.0001), but we did not detect a difference in response to the dose (Dose/Sex: df = 1, χ2 = 0.26, P = 0.61).
