Figure 4

Relative genome sizes (A) and cell size distributions (B) of Ditylum brightwellii from two populations. A) The mean mode of the linearly calibrated integrated SYBR signal is given for clones collected in 2006 (white circles) where the whiskers represent the actual values of each duplicate, and clones collected in 2007 (black circles) where the whiskers represent the standard deviation of the triplicate samples. B) Size distributions of the cell width (μm) in each clone at the time of the flow cytometry measurements. N = 100 cells per clone. Boxplot parameters: bar = median; box = 1st and 3rd quartiles; whiskers = 10th and 90th percentiles; filled circles = outliers. White boxes represent 2006 clones and grey boxes represent 2007 clones. White panel-regions represent population 1 clones and grey panel-regions represent population 2 clones.
