Following embryogenesis, infection with wMel elevated the rate that OreR and nos:Gal4/CyO wild-type eggs hatch into L1 stage larvae by 5.2% and 2.5%, respectively (88% and 91% (infected) versus 83% and 89% (uninfected) of eggs hatched, p< = 1e-4 to 2.1e-3 Wilcoxon rank sum test, Figs 1C and S8C and S6 Table). This evidence concerns the gene LGALS4 and infection.
