Variation in dauer-like larva formation frequency in C. inopinata. Twenty-five C. inopinata strains are shown on the x-axis; all are wild isolates with the exception of NKZ43, which is a twenty-generation inbred line derived from NKZ2. Each point represents one observation of dauer-like larva formation frequency, the fraction of a starved population of animals surviving SDS treatment (N observations per strain = 2–10; N worms per observation = 17–1557, average = 450, median = 397). Black horizontal lines represent the average. Strains are colored by Okinawan island of origin (Supplemental_tables.xls Sheet 17)
