Fig. 1. ELAVL2 is required for learning and memory consolidation.

Fig. 1

a Western blot detecting ELAVL2 (top) or tubulin (bottom) in bee central brains of control GFP and elavl2 dsRNA-injected workers 50 h after injection. b Schematic of the treatment to test for ELAVL2’s role in learning. c Learning (left) and memory (right) performances of control GFP dsRNA (white, n = 66) and elavl2 dsRNA (black, n = 74) injected worker bees. CS: conditioned odor, N: novel odorant. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. d Schematic of the treatment to test for ELAVL2’s s role in memory consolidation. e Learning (left) and memory (right) performances of control GFP dsRNA (white, n = 74) and elavl2 dsRNA (black, n = 77) injected worker bees. CS: conditioned stimulus, N: novel odorant **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001. f Schematic of the treatment to test for ELAVL2’s role in memory retrieval. g Learning (left) and memory (right) performances of control GFP dsRNA (white, n = 53) and elavl2 dsRNA (black, n = 50) injected worker bees.
