The foraging gene in Drosophila, encoding PKG, is known for its importance as a natural variant affecting behavioral plasticity. Here, we demonstrate that it also affects metabolic plasticity: Rovers show a greater response to changes in their food environment than do sitters. Using metabolic profi...
ORGANISM(S): Drosophila melanogaster 
Genomic and behavioral investigations were performed to determine the effects of a mutation in a Drosophila soluble guanylyl cyclase gene. A mutant DGCalpha1[3] third chromosome was crossed into a natural rover (for[R]) or natural sitter (for[s]) genetic background. (See Osborne et al. 1997; PMID: ...
