Figure 4
Glucose, glycogen, ATP, and lactate content (mmol/g wet weight) in E. verrucosus, E. cyaneus and G. lacustris after long-term exposures to temperatures different from preferred. White bars denote the preferred temperature of the species (control), while the red bars denote experimental temperatures above the preferred, and blue bars those below the preference temperatures. The data are presented as means ± standard deviation of the mean. Replicates numbers (n) for each experimental temperature were: 3–5 (9–15 individuals) for E. verrucosus; 4 (56 individuals) for E. cyaneus, and 3–4 (33–44 individuals) for G. lacustris. *Significant difference from initial control values (p < 0.05).
