°C | Slope [95% CI lower, 95% CI upper] | Intercept | r2 | Group |
---|---|---|---|---|
18 | 1.44 [1.18, 1.70] | 2.25 | 0.61 | a |
22 | 0.94 [0.74, 1.15] | 2.42 | 0.52 | b |
30 | 0.39 [0.25, 0.54] | 2.38 | 0.26 | c |
37 | 0.50 [0.31, 0.68] | 2.29 | 0.26 | c |
Values are results of least-squares regression applied to responses by 22 S-type neurons to 0.1, 0.17, 0.31, and 0.56 M sucrose at each temperature (Fig. 3). Calculations operated on the logarithm of the spiking response and the logarithm of concentration. All regression slopes were significantly greater than 0 (P < 0.001). The Group column indicates whether there was separation, denoted by different characters, between the 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for 2 slopes.
