Artificial selection for odor-guided behavior in Drosophila reveals changes in food consumption
Abstract Background The olfactory system enables organisms to detect chemical cues in the environment and can signal the availability of food or the presence of a predator. Appropriate behavioral responses to these chemical cues are therefore important for organismal survival and can influence trait...
