Effects of incubation osmolality and temperature on the mRNA expression of prlr1 and prlr2 in SW-acclimated tilapia (A and C) and FW-acclimated tilapia (B and D) Prl cells after 6 h of incubation. Data are expressed as mean fold change from the isosmotic and isothermal (330 mOsm/kg:26 °C) group ± SEM (n = 6–8). The effects of osmolality and temperature were analyzed by two-way ANOVA (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001). When there was a significant effect of temperature (Temp), media osmolality (Osm) or interaction (Int), group comparisons were conducted using protected Fisher’s LSD test. Groups not sharing uppercase letters indicate significant (P < 0.05) mean differences in response to incubation temperatures and groups not sharing lowercase letters reflect significant (P < 0.05) mean differences in response to media osmolality.
