Abstract excerpt
Neuron activity was studied electrophysiologically in the antennal lobes, mushroom bodies, and cervical connective during ontogenesis (days 1, 3, 7, and 25) in snow(laranija) mutant bees, which suffer kynurenine deficiency, and in wild-type bees. Neuron activity recorded from the cervical connective was found to show the greatest dependence on kynurenine content. Mutation in the structural gene for tryptophan...
