Sema-5cBG01245 mutant flies (males and females pooled) sleep on average 108.6 minutes longer per 24 hours than wild type flies. No significant difference is seen between the sexes.
Sema-5cBG01245 flies show a reduced avoidance response to benzaldehyde compared to control flies in an olfactory assay.
Approximately 10% of Sema-5cBG01245 adults show defects in the α-lobes of the mushroom body. There is also a significant reduction in the surface area of the ellipsoid body compared to controls.
Mutants show an abnormal olfactory avoidance response to 0.3% benzaldehyde.
