Fig. 2. Gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity (µmol ADP
mg-1 protein h-1) (A), plasma growth hormone levels (GH,
ng ml-1; B) and insulin-like growth factor I levels (IGF-I, ng
ml-1; C) in juvenile Atlantic salmon subjected to different
temperature and photoperiod treatments (see
Fig. 1). Values are means
± S.E.M. (N=12). Temperature increases in the advanced
temperature group began on February 14 (arrowhead). There were significant
effects of photoperiod, temperature and time on gill
Na+,K+-ATPase activity and plasma IGF-I levels, and
significant effects of photoperiod and time on plasma GH levels
(P<0.05, three-way ANOVA). Vertical lines unconnected to other
lines indicate a significant difference from other groups at that time point;
time points with no vertical lines are not significantly different from one
another (P=0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test).
