Figure 6. Reduced decrease of sensory responsiveness during sleep-like behavior in egl-30 mutants.

Figure 6

A Light dose-dependent fraction of wild type worms reversing upon optogenetic ASH activation. Note that worms need higher LED intensity for half-maximal responsiveness during sleep-like behavior. B Wild type control without retinal. C Light dose-dependent fraction of worms reversing upon ASH activation during wake-like and sleep-like states in egl-30(tg26gf). D Light dose-dependent fraction of worms reversing upon ASH activation during wake-like and sleep-like states in egl-30(n715sd). Note that the intensity required for half-maximal responsiveness is not reduced during lethargus in egl-30 mutants. Error bars represent SEM. * represents p < 0.05, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test.
