PC flies sleep more and engage in fewer locomotor activity when awake than ME under starvation. a-b Comparison of sleep patterns in ME flies when fed (black) and starved (gray). Data points for daytime are denoted in circles and nighttime are in squares. c-d Comparison of hourly sleep patterns of ME (white) and PC (gray) during starvation. Gray box denotes dark period, and Zeitgeber Hour denoted in these graphs start with when flies were placed on starvation media. e-f Total percent sleep when starved for ME and PC females and males. g-h Percent change in sleep upon starvation at the individual level for ME and PC flies. i-j Mean movement per minute when awake under starvation for (i) females and (j) males. Asterisks denote statistical significance after Bonferroni correction
