      Reference

      The expression of Maur\PrpFFI.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 leads to adults showing a progressive decrease in climbing ability.

      The progressive decrease in climbing ability induced by the expression of Maur\PrpWT.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 is not enhanced by inoculation with brain extracts from individuals expressing Maur\PrpFFI.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155.
