Food anticipatory activity from individual wild-type and Period mutant (Brdm strain) mice. (a) Food anticipatory activity (FAA) during 9 days of restricted feeding (RF) of wild-type (n = 12) and mPer2 Brdm1−/− (n = 17) mice was determined by totaling the number of wheel revolutions per minute from 4 hours before feeding time to the end of feeding time (total of 8 hours). FAA during fasting was defined as the total number of wheel revolutions per minute from 4 hours before feeding time to the end of previous feeding time (total of 8 hours). Wheel-running FAA for each mouse was determined separately for the first (Day 1; b) or second (Day 2; c) day of fasting. Black circles are individual mice fed from ZT6-10. Blue circles are individual mice fed from ZT5-9. The mean of each group is a horizontal line.
