Figure 5

Correlation between each of the behavioural and physiological responses to stress that were measured in each of the two sessions of behavioural tests of all animals regardless of groups (genotype or phenotype) except for animals that had a missing variable. AUC the area under the curve of the stress induced hyperthermia (SIH), IBT isolation box test, OXYPre the blood oxidative stress before each behavioural test, OXYPost the blood oxidative stress after each behavioural test, DHEA dehydroepiandrosterone, BDNF brain derived neurotrophic factor, S1 the first session of behavioural tests, S2 the second session of behavioural tests. The size of circle and the colour scale indicate the coefficient values of each combination (as given in the legend below the figure). * indicates a significant correlation at P < 0.05.
