...To exclude confounding visual input via UV-sensitive photoreceptors, flies were blinded with the help of the norpA7 allele (Hotta and Benzer, 1970; Pak et al., 1970), which eliminates an essential phototransduction component (Bloomquist et al., 1988)....

...Examples of mutants that display profound alterations in the LCRP includenorpA(no-receptor-potential A) (Hotta & Benzer 1970, Pak et al 1970, Heisenberg 1971a) andtrp (transient receptor potential) (Figure 2A) (Cosens & Manning 1969)....
