Box Plot from Scientific Research

Histograms of performance in the circular Barnes Maze (mean count ± SEM & raw data points, green = target hole, red = opposite). Histograms plot mean headpokes ±SEM. of n WT(young) = 18, n WT(aged) = 16, n HP1βKO(young) = 11, n HP1 β KO(aged) = 7, n HP1γKO(young) = 6, n HP1γKO (aged) = 5, n HP1β/γ DKO (young) = 11, n HP1β/γ DKO (young) = 12. Two way ANOVA, Bonferroni adjustment on multiple comparison, two-tailed. HP1β/γ DKO young vs WT young 24 h test p = 0.0009. HP1β/γ DKO young vs WT young 24 h test p = 0.0081. Box and whisker plots ( a , b ) display median, bounds of box at 25 th and 75 th percentiles, and whiskers to farthest datapoint within 1.5 * the interquartile range. All raw data can be seen in the Source Data file.
