Scutoid mutation of Drosophila melanogaster specifically decreases olfactory responses to short-chain acetate esters and ketones.

Journal of neurobiology - 1 Oct 1995

Dubin A E, Heald N L, Cleveland B, Carlson J R, Harris G L

Abstract excerpt

A molecular-genetic approach has been taken to identify genes involved in olfactory transduction in Drosophila melanogaster. Two independent lines of research led to the finding that the dominant Scutoid (Sco) mutation causes a diminished extracellular electroantennogram response to the odorants ethyl acetate (EtAC) and acetone (AC). Sco flies showed about 4- and 2.5-fold reduced responses to EtAC and AC,...
