Encoding of Wind Direction by Central Neurons in Drosophila

|
By Andrew Matheson, Marie P. Suver, Sinekdha Sarkar, Matthew Damiata
| Cell Press Verified
Highlights • Walking flies require both antennae for robust olfactory navigation behavior • The difference between antennal displacements generates a linear code for wind direction • Second-order APN neurons encode ipsilateral antenna deflections • Higher-order WPNs encode wind direction by integrating information from the two antennae Summary Wind is a major navigational cue for insects, but how wind direction is decoded by central neurons in the insect brain is unknown.
