  • aFlies were kept at 25°C and exposed to 4 d of 12:12LD followed by 7 d of DD.

  • bM16, M1, and F3 indicate independent transgenic lines.

  • cMeasure of the strength or amplitude of the rhythm.

  • dPercentage of flies with activity rhythms having a power value of ≥10 and a width value of ≥2.

  • eTotal number of flies that survived until the end of the testing period.
