Abstract excerpt

Initial learning, 30- and 180-min memory retention after Pavlovian conditioning of an odor avoidance response was quantified in dnc1, dnc2, dncM11 and Canton-S (wild-type) homozygotes and in dnc1/FM7, dnc2/FM7, dncM11/FM7, dncM11/Can-S, Can-S/FM7, dnc1/dncM11 and dnc2/dncM11 heterozygotes. Our re...
