Abstract excerpt
The retention time of attenuated chemotactic response to continuous presentation of odorant diacetyl was investigated in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The level of chemotactic response of nematodes pre-exposed to diacetyl for 90 min was significantly smaller than that of nonexposed control nematodes. In this study, wild-type (N2) nematodes were maintained at 15, 20 and 25 degrees C after pre-exposure to...
