Fig. 2. Citrate synthase (CS) activity (µmol min1
g1 lean muscle mass) in pectoral muscle of refueling
semipalmated sandpipers vs %20:5 (A,C) and %22:6 (B,D) in fuel
reserves (total body neutral lipids, NL; A,B) and muscle phospholipids (PL;
C,D). 20:5 is eicosapentaenoic acid and 22:6 is docosahexaenoic acid. Lines
were fitted by linear regression (%20:5 NL: y=435.32+12.42x;
%22:6 PL: y=455.30+8.90x). N=38.
*P<0.05; **P<0.01; NS, not
significant.
