Effects of generational n-3 fatty acid deficiency on instrumental learning performance and extinction during adolescence. G2 DEF adolescent rats displayed consistently slower learning measured by total trials compared with their ADQ counterparts (A), while G1 DEF adolescent rats performed poorer only on some sessions. G2 DEF adolescent rats also displayed a trend for higher task-irrelevant pokes (p=0.06) (B) and significantly higher latencies for pellet retrieval (C). Data expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 10–12/group. Significance set at p < 0.05.
