Olfactory conditioning of the sting extension reflex in honeybees: Memory dependence on trial number, interstimulus interval, intertrial interval, and protein synthesis.
Harnessed bees learn to associate an odorant with an electric shock so that afterward the odorant alone elicits the sting extension response (SER). We studied the dependency of retention on interstimulus interval (ISI), intertrial interval (ITI), and number of conditioning trials in the framework of olfactory SER conditioning. Forward ISIs (conditioned stimulus [CS] before unconditioned stimulu...
متن کاملVisual conditioning of the sting extension reflex in harnessed honeybees.
Visual performances of honeybees have been extensively studied using free-flying individuals trained to choose visual stimuli paired with sucrose reward. By contrast, harnessed bees in the laboratory were not thought to be capable of learning a Pavlovian association between a visual stimulus (CS) and sucrose reward (US). For reasons as yet unknown, harnessed bees only learn visual cues in assoc...
متن کاملAversive Learning in Honeybees Revealed by the Olfactory Conditioning of the Sting Extension Reflex
Invertebrates have contributed greatly to our understanding of associative learning because they allow learning protocols to be combined with experimental access to the nervous system. The honeybee Apis mellifera constitutes a standard model for the study of appetitive learning and memory since it was shown, almost a century ago, that bees learn to associate different sensory cues with a reward...
متن کاملOdour aversion after olfactory conditioning of the sting extension reflex in honeybees.
In Pavlovian conditioning, an originally neutral stimulus (conditioned stimulus or CS) gains control over an animal's reflex after its association with a biologically relevant stimulus (unconditioned stimulus or US). As a consequence, a conditioned response is emitted by the animal upon further CS presentations. In such a situation, the subject exhibits a reflex response, so that whether the CS...
متن کاملEffects of interstimulus interval and contingency on classical conditioning of the Aplysia siphon withdrawal reflex.
The siphon withdrawal reflex of Aplysia undergoes differential classical conditioning with cutaneous stimulation of the siphon or mantle shelf as the discriminative conditioned stimuli (CS+ and CS-) and shock to the tail as the unconditioned stimulus (US). The reflex has proved to be useful for analyzing the neural mechanisms of conditioning. To test the generality of this experimental system, ...
