From: Role of serotonergic neurons in the Drosophila larval response to light
Lack of VNC 5-HT neurons does not affect the larval response to light. Photobehavior of foraging and wandering 3rd instar egP 289and eg18B/eg-GAL4 mutant larvae as well as control larvae during the ON/OFF assay. As measured by their RIs, egP 289and eg18B/eg-GAL4 larvae show normal photoneutral response when compared with heterozygous parental control larvae in the same larval stage (early foraging 3rd instar:egP 289, n = 21, RI = 0.317; egP 289/+, n = 26, RI = 0.328; ANOVA: F(1,45) = 0.34, p = 0.561; early wandering 3rd instar egP 289, n = 41, RI = 0.06; egP 289/+, n = 25, RI = 0.063; ANOVA: F(1,64) = 0.10, p = 0.747; early foraging 3rd instar:eg18B/eg-GAL4, n = 19, RI = 0.3283; eg18B/+, n = 21, RI = 0.3113; ANOVA: F(1,38) = 0.93, p = 0.34; early wandering 3rd instar eg18B/eg-GAL4, n = 26, RI = 0.094; eg18B/+, n = 21, RI = 0.064; ANOVA: F(1,45) = 3.43, p = 0.06).
