Thermogenetic activation of R72D07-GAL4 neurons increases aggression and UWEs in intermale fights: Thermogenetic activation of R72D07-GAL4 neurons at 30 °C increases (A) lunges, (B) boxing, (C) UWE counts, and (D) UWE time, compared to the parental controls. This phenotype is lost at the control temperature of 22 °C. For A–D, each circle represents lunges per 30 min, boxing per 30 min, UWE counts per 30 min, and UWE time in seconds per 30 min, respectively. For A–D, Kruskal–Wallis test followed by post hoc Dunn’s was performed for both the temperatures (**P < 0.01, ***P <0.001, ns = not significant at P > 0.05). Genotypes and number of pairs used are shown below each plot. (E) Thermogenetically activated R72D07-GAL4 males display increased aggression and UWEs in interspersed bouts: The x axis represents the observation period, which is 1,800 s (or 30 min). Representative fights of (i) R72D07-GAL4/UAS-dTrpA1 at 22 °C (Left) and 30 °C (Right), (ii) R72D07-GAL4-only control at 22 °C (Left) and 30 °C (Right), and (iii) UAS-dTrpA1-only control at 22 °C (Left) and 30 °C (Right).
