Fig. 7. Histamine in the head is altered reciprocally by white, in double
mutants with ebony and tan. In all single mutants, the
histamine content is reduced, to 51% (white), 48% (ebony)
and 10% (tan) of the wild-type value. Relative to these,
double-mutant white, tan has significantly more histamine
than the corresponding tan single mutant
(
P<0.0005), which has 34% of the wild-type
value; whereas white; ebony has less head histamine than
either single mutant alone, reduced to 19% of the wild-type value, a reduction
that is significant (*P<0.0005).
