From: cryptochrome genes form an oscillatory loop independent of the per/tim loop in the circadian clockwork of the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus

Fig. 3

Double-plotted actograms showing locomotor rhythms of crickets Gryllus bimaculatus. (a–j) Locomotor activity of DsRed2 RNAi (a), Gb’cry1 RNAi (b, c), Gb’cry2 RNAi (d–g), or Gb’cry1 RNAi and Gb’cry2 RNAi (h–j) crickets recorded under LD 12:12 and DD at a constant temperature of 25 °C. Arrowheads indicate the day when the crickets were transferred from LD to DD. Gb’cry1 RNAi crickets showed a locomotor rhythm free-running in DD with a period similar to that of DsRed2 RNAi crickets (a–c), but Gb’cry2 RNAi and Gb’cry1/Gb’cry2 double RNAi crickets showed variable free-running periods (d–j).
