Figure 5

Double plotted actograms showing locomotor activity of crickets doubly treated with ds opUV and ds opB (A) and ds opUV and ds opLW (B) that subjected to LD cycles advanced by 6 h on the day indicated by an arrow head. White and black bars above actograms indicate light (white) and dark (black) phases. Shaded areas in actograms indicate dark phases. The opUV and opB double RNAi cricket (expressing mainly opLW) clearly synchronized to the shifted LD (A) while the opUV and opLW double RNAi cricket (expressing mainly opB) did not. Note that the crickets showed intense activity bouts at lights-on (orange arrow) after phase advance when the subjective night was exposed to light.
