Earlier this year, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra came together for a joint residency at Aldeburgh, to explore differences in period performing style.
Other investigators have found differences in period distributions for stars more and less massive than 0.25 Msolar ; we find ambiguous evidence for differences in distributions of P and find no difference in those of log j on either side of this boundary, although for stars more massive than ~0.6 Msolar, values appear to cluster around j = 107 km2s-107
Alternatively, differences in the activity of glucokinase (GK) or other metabolic proteins could also account for the differences in period.
Regional differences in period were not detected (Figure S3A, p = 0.7), and period accounted for only a minor proportion of variance in phase (r2 = 0.03).
Since FRQ and WC-1 are located on the same chromosome, we also genotyped FRQ R753Q to determine if FRQ was responsible for the differences in period.
Therefore, fibroblast measurements succeeded in capturing inter-individual differences in period among members of each group (whether they were blind or sighted), but were insensitive to apparent differences between blind and sighted individuals.
By investigating the mechanistic bases of SCN phase heterogeneity, we show for the first time that phase differences are not systematically related to regional differences in period, waveform, amplitude, or brightness.
There were no significant differences in period (F1,28 = 0.25, p = 0.62) or MI (F1,28 = 1.97, p = 0.21) between the entrained and free-run intervals.
Despite these differences in period 1, the test for a possible unequal carry-over effect was not significant (P = 0.3397) (Table 2).
Observed task-specific differences in period gene expression and behavioral activity levels suggest that nest workers are arrhythmic with respect to daily light regimes but foragers experience strong circadian rhythms in behavior.
