New methods of intervention in Drosophila and other insect species reveal that the mushroom bodies are involved in a diverse set of behavioral functions. The intrinsic Kenyon cells (those neurons with projections within the mushroom bodies) house part of the short-term memory trace for odors and are required for courtship conditioning memory. A pair of extrinsic mushroom body neurons (neurons with projections both inside and outside the mushroom bodies) provides a neuropeptide important for 1-hour olfactory memory. In addition, the mushroom bodies are necessary for context generalization in visual learning and for regulating the transition from walking to rest.
对果蝇和其他昆虫物种进行干预的新方法表明，蘑菇体参与了一系列不同的行为功能。内在的肯扬细胞（那些在蘑菇体内有投射的神经元）储存了部分气味的短期记忆痕迹，并且是求偶条件记忆所必需的。一对外在的蘑菇体神经元（在蘑菇体内外都有投射的神经元）提供一种对1小时嗅觉记忆很重要的神经肽。此外，蘑菇体对于视觉学习中的情境泛化以及调节从行走状态到休息状态的转变是必不可少的。
