The nompC but not the pain and pyx mutations disrupted auditory responses. (A) Schematic of the auditory recording method. Near-field sound, mimicking the Drosophila courtship song was delivered to the antenna. An extracellular electrode positioned as in Fig. 5A recorded sound-evoked potentials (SEP) in the axons of Johnston's organ. A sample trace from a wild-type fly is shown. (B) Amplitude of SEPs in pain¹, pain^Gal4, pyx³, and nompC^f00642 flies. nompC^f00642 heterozygous (het.) and homozygous (homo.) flies are shown. *, difference from control by ANOVA (α level = 0.05) and post hoc test of Games-Howell. The number (n) of antennae recorded in each group is shown underneath the corresponding genotype. Data are mean ± SEM.
