a Selection regimes 1 for PDRP, 2 for dauer larva formation, and 3 control, showing the first two generations of selection, which was repeated 5 times. b The proportion of dauer larva formed by lines selected for PDRP (selection regime 1), dauer larva formation (selection regime 2), or the control (selection regime 3), and strain N2, and selection regime significantly affected dauer larva formation (Selection Regime d.f. = 2 χ2 = 560, P < 0.001). For each line tested there were three replicates shown as dots, with their mean shown as triangles, with different colours showing different lines, and the overall mean for each selection environment is shown as a horizontal black line
