BG02439BG02439 mutant flies (males and females pooled) sleep on average 160.2 minutes less per 24 hours than wild type flies. No significant difference is seen between the sexes.
Mutants show a reduced olfactory avoidance response to 0.03, 0.10 or 0.30% benzaldehyde compared to control flies, while the avoidance response is not significantly from that of control flies at benzaldehyde concentrations of 0.01, 1.0 or 3.0%.
