Identification of additional dye tracers for measuring solid food intake and food preference via consumption-excretion in Drosophila
Abstract The Drosophila model has become a leading platform for investigating mechanisms that drive feeding behavior and the effect of diet on physiological outputs. Several methods for tracking feeding behavior in flies have been developed. One method, consumption-excretion or Con-Ex, provides flie...
