Figure 8.

Mean ± SEM relative mRNA abundance (relative to the reference gene, s20 and normalized to controls) of the serotonin receptor 1Aα (5-HT1Aα) in the raphe nuclei (RN) of depression-like state (DLS) Atlantic salmon at both basal and post-acute stress conditions for buspirone-treated (i.e., fish were treated twice with 3 mg/L and twice with 5 mg/L buspirone concentrations throughout the course of the experiment) and control (sham-treated) fish. Linear mixed effect model statistics are given within the figure and lowercase letters symbolize Tukey post hoc differences.
