(n=6–9 mice per group). (Top Panel) Latency to swim to platform in seconds. (Main effect of day F(4,76)=3.10, p=0.02 and genotype F(2,76)=8.88, p=0.0019. Day × genotype interaction (F(8,76)=6.19, p<0.0001). (Bottom panel) Mean number of errors made in swimming t maze over 5 days (mean of 3 trials per day per animal). Main effect of genotype F(2,76)=8.28, p=0.0026 and day F(4.76)=4.46, p=0.00026. Criterion was 3 consecutive days without errors (9 consecutive trials). The number of mice that achieved this criterion was lower (p=0.0319) in ak mice (1 out of 7) than in the wt (7 out 9) or rd1 (4 out of 6) groups.
