Summary of statistics of embryo hypoxia survival experiments.
Statistical comparison of each genotype’s ability to reach at least L4 following 24 hr exposure to 0.5% O2 as embryo and then allowed to recover at 21% O2 for 65 hr compared to worm embryos kept in 21% O2 for 65 hr (two-way ANOVA corrected for multiple comparisons using the Tukey method).
