Gene expression of (A) mc2r, star, cyp21a, cyp11b, hsd11b2, gr1 and mr in the whole trunk of juveniles and (B) of crf, gr1, mr and pomc in the head of juveniles kept in the 3 different treatments: Control, Low density and Tryptophan. Note that these are values relative to the geometric mean of the following reference genes: ribosomal protein L13 (L13) and eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha (eef1a). Each bar plot represents the difference in % between Control and the other treatments. “*” indicates a p value < 0.05.
