Abstract excerpt
The phenotype of spontaneous behaviour in mice with targeted gene deletion of the DIA dopamine receptor was investigated topographically. Via direct visual observation, individual elements of behaviour were resolved and quantified using an ethologically-based, rapid time-sampling behavioural check-list procedure. Relative to wildtypes (D1A+/+), D1A-null (-/-) mice evidenced over initial exploration significant...
