Abstract

Fruit flies with genetic lesions disrupting the structure of a brain region known as the protocerebral bridge fail to aim their movements correctly when crossing gaps, implicating this central brain neuropile in the visual control of goal-directed behaviour.

摘要

具有遗传损伤的果蝇在穿过缝隙时无法正确瞄准其运动，这些损伤破坏了一个被称为protocerebral bridge 的大脑区域的结构，这表明这个中央脑神经丛在视觉控制目标导向行为中起作用。
