Gene expression index for olfactory behavior in Drosophila melanogaster. Drosophila melanogaster

Transcriptional analysis for GEI in olfactory behavior Keywords: whole body, olfactory behavior Overall design: Larvae were reared on three different media: standard cornmeal-molasses medium, standard medium supplemented with 9% ethanol and standard medium enriched with tomato paste. After eclosion, we transferred all flies to standard medium at 25°C under a 12:12 hour light/dark cycle prior to characterization of behavioral responses to benzaldehyde and transcription profiling.
