Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygous dikarE3145 mutant flies do not show any change in sensitivity to ethanol vapor compared to controls.

Homozygotes and heterozygotes (to a lesser extent) show deficits in 1-day memory after spaced training, however complementation analysis suggests that this memory phenotype is most likely due a second-site mutation in the background of the P{lacZ}dikarE3145 insertion stock.

In memory tests, mutants perform at 95% of wild-type after a single training session, at 53% after spaced training. FlyBase curator comment: complementation analysis in FBrf0201526 indicates that the memory deficit seen in P{lacZ}dikarE3145 mutants is probably not caused by the insertion in the dikar gene, but is most likely caused by a second-site mutation.

Complementation tests between P{lacZ}dikarE3145 and the dikar3 and dikar5 alleles suggest that the long term memory deficit seen in P{lacZ}dikarE3145 mutants is probably not caused by the insertion in the dikar gene, but is most likely caused by a second-site mutation.
