Pairwise significant differences among the eight base hibernation states

	SA	IBA	Ent	LT	EAr	LAr	SpC	SpW
SA		95	98	70	88	105	61	54
IBA	148		0	0	3	1	28	75
Ent	163	2		1	2	1	33	79
LT	111	0	2		1	3	5	25
EAr	139	6	4	2		0	34	67
LAr	162	3	2	3	0		35	77
SpC	97	41	57	11	50	51		4
SpW	88	105	123	37	102	110	4

Bottom left: significant comparisons for all matched spots (n = 323). Top right: significant pairwise comparisons for the identified spots (n = 203). The brown adipose tissue proteome of summer active (SA) ground squirrels is most distinct from all other groups.

IBA, interbout arousal; Ent, entering torpor; LT, late torpor; EAr, early arousing; LAr, late arousing; SpC, spring-cold; SpW, spring-warm.

Tukey highly significant difference (HSD) test was performed; P < 0.05.
