Dopamine signalling in mushroom bodies regulates temperature-preference behaviour in Drosophila.

The ability to respond to environmental temperature variation is essential for survival in animals. Flies show robust temperature-preference behaviour (TPB) to find optimal temperatures. Recently, we have shown that Drosophila mushroom body (MB) functions as a center controlling TPB. However, neurom...
