Locomotion Induced by Spatial Restriction in Adult Drosophila.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Xiao Chengfeng, Robertson R Meldrum

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila adults display an unwillingness to enter confined spaces but the behaviors induced by spatial restriction in Drosophila are largely unknown. We developed a protocol for high-throughput analysis of locomotion and characterized features of locomotion in a restricted space. We observed intense and persistent locomotion of flies in small circular arenas (diameter 1.27 cm), whereas locomotion was greatly...
