Soluble pProtein levels across diet and infection conditions used to normalize carbohydrate levels.

<p>Flies were pooled in batches of 3 for each biological replicate. Protein levels were ~ 10% lower in flies fed 16% sucrose compared to flies fed 2% sucrose across all infection treatments (uninfected, p = 0.013, n = 30; <i>Providencia rettgeri</i>, p = 0.013, n = 25, <i>Serratia marcescens</i>, p = 0.014, n = 30; post-hoc Tukey test p<0.05).
