Weight analysis of e17.5 conceptuses from crosses between Grb7 KO and Grb10 KO mice. Data were pooled into four groups for analysis as described in the Methods; wild type (WT), Grb7 KO (7KO), Grb10 KO (10KO) and Grb7:Grb10 double knockouts (DKO). Weights are shown for the four offspring genotype groups for (A) Embryo; and B Placenta. C These values have been used to calculate the embryo to placenta weight ratio as a measure of placental efficiency. Values represent means and SEM, tested by one-way ANOVA using Kruskal–Wallis and Dunn’s post hoc statistical tests. Sample sizes were, for embryo WT N = 24, Grb7 KO N = 5, Grb10 KO N = 27, Grb7:Grb10 DKO N = 6, and for placenta and embryo:placenta ratio WT N = 23, Grb7 KO N = 5, Grb10 KO N = 27, Grb7:Grb10 DKO N = 6. Asterisks indicate p-values, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ****p < 0.0001
