Taste and pheromonal inputs govern the regulation of time investment for mating by sexual experience in male Drosophila melanogaster

OBPs and snmp1 are involved in detecting the sensory inputs for SMD behavior.
(A-B) MD assays for GAL4 mediated knockdown of LUSH via UAS-lush-IR; UAS-dicer (lush-RNAi) using (A) Gr5a-GAL4 and (B) Gr66a-GAL4 drivers. (C-H) MD assays of snmp1 genetic rescue experiments. Genotypes are indicated below each graph. (I) Male antenna of flies expressing Gr5a-lexA and Snmp1-GAL4 drivers together with lexAOP-tdTomato and UAS-Stinger were imaged live under a fluorescent microscope. Scale bars represent 50 μm. (J) Male foreleg of flies expressing Gr5a-lexA and Snmp1-GAL4 drivers together with lexAOP-tdTomato and UAS-Stinger were imaged live under a fluorescent microscope. Yellow arrows indicate Gr5a-positive and Snmp1-positive neurons. Scale bars represent 50 μm.
