Appendix Results of ANOVAs for the quantities of the 20 most abundant epicuticular hydrocarbon components in this study. Results are based on flies reared on defatted culture medium plus 1, 3, or 9% concentrations of triolein, tristearin, or tripalmitolein alone or combined. Controls (standard and defatted media) were not included in these analyses. Chemical names and equivalent chain lengths (in parentheses) are from Etges and Jackson (2001).
