This is the final graph of the experiments knocking down PKG (foraging) in operant self-learning:

This was supposed to be a reproduction of Tina’s experiment:

While in my dataset, the knock-down flies are still performing the worst of all three groups, it is not quite as clear-cut as in Tina’s results. Then again, her knock-down flies maybe were slightly too low. Now pooled with mine that were slightly to high, maybe this is what we should expect: a clear zero. We should pool the data and see how it looks.

Getting more and more flies, but only one group looks unambiguous. The other two not so much:

It seems that panneuronal downregulation of the expression of the foraging gene impairs yow torque learning when flies were trained for 8 minutes.
