Salt avoidance test in control larvae (WTB) under red light and blue light (combined data)
Larvae showed a significant avoidance of salt under both light conditions. When data from both weeks were combined, no significant difference in avoidance was observed between blue and red light.
Salt avoidance test in control larvae (WTB) under red light and blue light
WTB Drosophila larvae were placed in the center of an agar plate with plain agar on one side and salt-containing agar on the other. After 3 minutes, larval distribution was quantified as a preference index under red and blue light.
Larvae showed a significant avoidance of salt under both light conditions. Avoidance was significantly stronger under blue light than under red light.
Salt avoidance test in control larvae (WTB) under red light and blue light
WTB Drosophila larvae were placed in the center of an agar plate containing plain agar on one half and agar supplemented with salt on the other half.
Larval distribution after 3 minutes was quantified as a preference index under red and blue light conditions.
