Differential Contributions of Olfactory Receptor Neurons in a Drosophila Olfactory Circuit

The ability of an animal to detect, discriminate, and respond to odors depends on the functions of its olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). The extent to which each ORN, upon activation, contributes to chemotaxis is not well understood. We hypothesized that strong activation of each ORN elicits a diff...
