Octopamine indirectly affects proboscis extension response habituation in Drosophila melanogaster by controlling sucrose responsiveness.

Journal of insect physiology - 1 Oct 2014

Scheiner Ricarda, Steinbach Anne, Claßen Gerbera, Strudthoff Nicole, Scholz Henrike

Abstract excerpt

Octopamine is an important neurotransmitter in insects with multiple functions. Here, we investigated the role of this amine in a simple form of learning (habituation) in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Specifically, we asked if octopamine is necessary for normal habituation of a proboscis extension response (PER) to different sucrose concentrations. In addition, we analyzed the relationship between...
