Seasonal phenotype | Sample size | Torpor bouts | Body weight (g) | Rectal Tb (°C) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Fall | 7 | 0 | 699 ± 64b,c | 35.4 ± 0.3a |
Torpor | 4 | ≥ 8 | 594 ± 35c | 2.9 ± 0.3c |
Ibe (Winter vehicle) | 5 | ≥ 8 | 486 ± 28a | 36.1 ± 0.3a |
Summer (Summer vehicle) | 7 | 0 | 584 ± 33a,c | 37.0 ± 0.2b |
Data shown ± SEM, rectal Tb was measured prior to tissue collection. Groups annotated with different letters (a,b,c) are significantly different from groups annotated with the same letters p < 0.05, Wilcoxon’s rank-sum test.
