Description
Summary:<p>The preferred temperature was significantly lower in infected insects compared to uninfected controls (t-value = 5.49, p = 3.98e-8, n = 40), and varied significantly across days (t-value = 6.31, p = 2.79e-10, n = 40) based on GLMM analysis. For readability, data from all times of day were pooled within each day. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean.</p>
