Effect of genotype (WT vs. Per2−/−) on open field activity. There was no effect of genotype on any measures taken during the open field activity. WT and Per2−/− a traveled the same distance, b traveled at the same speed, c spent the same time mobile (moving around the arena), and d had the same number of mobile episodes. Per2−/− mice spent e more time in the center and f less time in the periphery compared to WT mice. *p < 0.05 WT vs. Per2−/− mice. (n = 9–16 animals per group)
