Macronutrient composition in hemolymph and body of flies kept for 1–12 weeks at 11°C and 10L:14D, light/dark (D1–D12) and after recovery for 1 week after 3 weeks of diapause (R1′), or 1 (R1) or 2 weeks (R2) after 6 weeks of diapause. Virgin flies, kept for 1 week at non-diapausing conditions (C1) and recently hatched 3–6 h old flies (C0) were used as a controls. Data are presented as means ± S.E.M, n = 3–5 independent replicates with 10–15 flies in every replicate. Significantly different either from the control (C1) with *p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001 or from the indicated group as assessed by ANOVA, followed by Tukey test or alternatively with # p<0.05, ## p<0.01, ### p<0.001 as assessed by Kruskal-Wallis test followed with Wilcoxon pairwise comparison. N.S. – values are not significantly different. Vs, versus.
