In both sexes, individuals performing more flights directly over the live intruder showed (a) more AR, (b) more AROM and (c) more ORα mRNA in ventromedial telencephalon (VmT). These relationships did not differ between the sexes. Abundance of each target gene is expressed as fold changes relative to an arbitrary calibrator (calibrator = 1), normalized by GAPDH. Black circles, females; grey circles, males.
