Figure 2


Fig. 2. Glycogen levels in rainbow smelt Osmerus mordax. (A) Glycogen levels in various tissues of fish maintained at 8°C and sampled on 15 January 2004, immediately prior to the temperature decrease. Note the break in axis that separates liver from other tissues. Values are means ± s.e.m., N=4. Different letters over bars indicate a statistically significant difference between tissues. (B) Glycogen levels in liver of fish subjected to a controlled decrease in water temperature with either feeding (open circles) or food deprivation (filled circles). The date at which the temperature decrease was initiated (i.e. 15 January 2004) is used as day 0. Filled square, liver glycogen content in fish maintained at ambient temperature. Values are means ± s.e.m., N=4. Different letters indicate a statistically significant difference between time points for the fed group. Water temperature (°C) is shown in parentheses.
