Locomotor activity rhythms of CS, norpAP41, and cryb flies at different temperaturesa

Genotype Temp (°C) nb Time (h) relative to ZT0 (mean ± SEM)d
50% onsetc Peak
CS 18 32 8.9 ± 0.2 10.4 ± 0.1
norpAP41 18 30 7.2 ± 0.3* 9.1 ± 0.2*

a

Flies were kept at either 18 or 29°C and exposed to 4 days of 12:12LD. Average data from two independent experiments are shown.

b

Total number of flies that survived until the end of the testing period.

c

Onset is the time at which the upswing in evening activity reached 50% of the peak value and is given in hours from the last lights-on transition, where ZT0 is lights-on.

d

*, significant difference between CS and norpA or cryb at P < 0.001 using Student's t test. **, significant difference between CS and norpA at P < 0.05. No significant differences were observed between norpA and cryb for either onset or peak at either temperature.
