      Homozygous embryos show defects in the guidance of the intersegmental nerve in the periphery.

      (Zheng et al., 2011)

      cherjoy/cherjoy mutants do not display any gross morphological defects of the mushroom body, and neither cherjoy/cherjoy nor cherjoy/+ mutants display any defects in sensorimotor responses (shock reactivity, octanol avoidance, and methylcyclohexanol avoidance) as compared to wild type.

      cherjoy/cherjoy mutants display defective memory 1 day and 4 days after spaced training, but not 1-day after massed training in a Pavlovian olfactory learning context, as compared to wild type.

      cherjoy/+ mutants do not display defects in memory 1 day and 4 days after spaced training, nor in memory 1 day after massed training in a Pavlovian olfactory learning context.

      cherEPSĪ”5/cherjoy mutants do not display defects in memory 1 day after spaced training in a Pavlovian olfactory learning context.

      (Bolduc et al., 2010)

      Homozygous cherjoy mutants show increased sensitivity to ethanol vapor compared with controls.

      (Berger et al., 2008)

      In memory tests, mutants perform at 104% of wild-type after a single training session, at 24% after spaced training.
