Figure 4From: Effect of environmental salinity on expression of adrenomedullin genes suggests osmoregulatory activity in the medaka, Oryzias latipes AM5 mRNA expression in tissues of medaka one week after transfer from an 11 ppt isotonic saline solution to salinities of 0 ppt (fresh water) and 33 ppt (seawater). Asterisks indicate significant differences in a Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison test following one-way ANOVA (**P < 0.01 in brain) or a Steel-Dwass’ test (*P < 0.05 in kidney). Values are means ± SEM (n = 4–6) and mRNA levels are expressed in arbitrary units normalized to ribosomal protein L7 levels.Back to article page
