Fig. 8. Analysis of the initial biting responses of caterpillars to disks containing water (H₂O), 200 mmol l^–1 glucose, 200 mmol l^–1 sucrose, 1 mmol l^–1 inositol or binary mixtures of the carbohydrates. We show (A) latency to initiate biting, and number of bites taken across the initial (B) 10 s and (C) 120 s of the meal. Within each panel, we compared medians (±median absolute deviation) with Dunn's multiple comparison test; different letters (a, b, c or combinations of each) above the bars indicate medians that differ significantly from one another (P0.05). The absence of letters above the bars in panels B and C reflects a lack of significant difference among the medians (according to a Kruskal–Wallis test, P>0.05). N=19–25 caterpillars per taste stimulus.
