Age-dependent stability of sensorimotor functions in the life-extended Drosophila mutant methuselah.

Behavior genetics - 1 Jul 2007

Petrosyan Agavni, Hsieh I-Hui, Saberi Kourosh

Abstract excerpt

Methuselah is a Drosophila mutant with a 35% increased lifespan. We examined the robustness of methuselah's sensorimotor abilities in tethered flight as a function of age in experiments designed to test visuomotor synchronization and phototaxis in simulated flight. A total of 282 flies from different age groups (4 hours to 70 days) and genotypes (mth and w1118) were individually tethered under an infrared...
