Figure 3. Circadian activity of C. islandica.

Figure 3

(A) Diagram of the group and individual circadian valve behaviours. At the individual level, the percentage of rhythmic individuals in the circadian range (20–28 h) is shown for each studied season (3 PD, 3 PN and 6 AL). NS: indicates a non-significant period. For each scallop at each season, a colour tag indicates the circadian period range that is closest to 24 h (dark blue tag: 23.5–24.5 h), intermediate from 24 h (medium blue tag: 22–26 h), and farthest from 24 h (light blue tag: 20–28 h). The white tags indicate that no significant rhythm in the circadian range was observed. (B) Percentage of scallops with valve behaviour in the circadian range according to the different seasons. For the PD and PN periods, the mean represents an average for the 3 total seasons (1 per each year studied), whereas for the AL period, the mean represents an average for the 6 total seasons.
