Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of a spatial orientation memory in Drosophila
Kirsa Neuser,Kirsa Neuser,Tilman Triphan,Markus Mronz,Burkhard Poeck,Roland Strauss,Roland Strauss +6 more
TL;DR: The GABAergic ring neurons of the ellipsoid body in the central brain are necessary and their plasticity is sufficient for a functional spatial orientation memory in flies and the protein kinase S6KII (ignorant) is required in a distinct subset of ring neurons to display this memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral consequences of dopamine deficiency in the Drosophila central nervous system
Thomas Riemensperger,Guillaume Isabel,Hélène Coulom,Kirsa Neuser,Laurent Seugnet,Kazuhiko Kume,Magali Iché-Torres,Marlène Cassar,Roland Strauss,Thomas Preat,Jay Hirsh,Serge Birman +11 more
TL;DR: It is shown that flies can perform complex brain functions in the absence of neural DA, whereas specific behaviors involving, in particular, arousal and choice require normal levels of this neuromodulator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual Targeting of Motor Actions in Climbing Drosophila
TL;DR: It is concluded that the protocerebral bridge is an essential part of a visual targeting network that transmits directional clues to the motor output via a known projection system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual learning in individually assayed Drosophila larvae.
Bertram Gerber,Sabine Scherer,Kirsa Neuser,Birgit Michels,Thomas Hendel,Reinhard F. Stocker,Martin Heisenberg +6 more
TL;DR: The first visual associative learning paradigm for larval Drosophila is introduced, remarkable as larvae have an order of magnitude fewer neurons than adult flies, and the effectiveness of training using differential conditioning, with both positive and negative reinforcement, is compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Locomotor control by the central complex in Drosophila—An analysis of the tay bridge mutant
TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that the walking speed and activity is controlled by different substructures of the central brain than the compensatory locomotion for rotatory stimuli.
