Description:
Article The mushroom bodies (MBs) in an insect brain integrate and process sensory information. Using fully sequenced/inbred lines of the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel, this study performs genome wide association analyses and identifies candidate genes affecting MB size, and uses RNAi to functionally validate the identified loci.
