Chronic exposure to odors at naturally occurring concentrations triggers limited plasticity in early stages of Drosophila olfactory processing
ZV Gugel, EG Maurais, EJ Hong - Elife, 2023 - elifesciences.org
In insects and mammals, olfactory experience in early life alters olfactory behavior and
function in later life. In the vinegar fly Drosophila, flies chronically exposed to a high …

Experience-dependent plasticity of a highly specific olfactory circuit in Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster encounters a variety of odor cues signaling potentially harmful
threats through-out its life, which are detected by highly specialized olfactory circuits …
