Fig. 5. Statistical analysis of data shown in Fig. 4. CO2 emission by each batch of eggs was fitted by the logistic curve (see text for details). (A) Fitted values of the coefficient K (filled diamonds) and calculated emission rates (µg mol–1 h–1) from the fitted model (coefficients given in Table 4) for temperatures of 16 (solid squares) and 38°C (open circles). K depends on ambient PO2 by the relationship: K=15.1+0.85PO2 (r2=0.71; F1,10=24.3, P<0.001). Calculated emission rates at 38°C depend on ambient PO2 by the relationship: CO2 (38°C)=15.4+0.65 PO2 (r2=0.70; F1,10=23.6, P<0.001). Calculated emission rates at 16°C were not significantly related to ambient oxygen (F1,10=0.05, P=0.82). (B) Residual variation about the model fitted to the emission trace from each batch of eggs.
