Abstract excerpt
A collection of Drosophila melanogaster mutants was created by insertion of a P-element into autosomes at a rate of one copy per genome. The abilities of 64 homozygous P-insertion mutants to produce a form of associative behavior were determined. Testing was based on an original paradigm of operant learning: interactions between Drosophila individuals when placed in a group situation in which the flies learned to...
