Fig. 2. Time course of changes in maximal rates of pyruvate oxidation (nmol O
min-1) by mitochondria from oxidative muscle during warm
acclimation. State 3 rates are expressed as mg-1 mitochondrial
protein, nmol-1 cytochrome and nmol-1 ANT. Values are
means ± s.e.m. (N=11 for cold acclimated trout, N=8
for short-term warm exposed trout and N=11 for warm acclimated
trout). Different superscript letters indicate rates at a given assay
temperature that differ between acclimation states (ANOVA and a
posteriori test, P
0.05).
