Fig. 4. CCAP-R on IPCs is required for suppression of intermale courtship.

Fig. 4.

(A) Screening for neuropeptide receptor genes using IPC-specific RNAi knockdown. Courtship index (top) and single-wing extension number (bottom) was counted between two males of the same genotype. N = 4 to 8 in each group. (B and C) Knockdown of CCAP-R in IPCs induced intermale courtship. Courtship index and single-wing extension number were counted between males. U-CCAP-R-RNAi #2 is another independent RNAi line from the one used in the screening (B). N = 9 to 10 in each group. (D and E) Silencing CCAP cells induced intermale courtship. Courtship index and single-wing extension number were counted between males. N = 8 to 10 in each group. In all analyses, one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test for multiple comparisons was used, and statistical differences were represented as follows: ***P < 0.001 and ****P < 0.0001. Data were represented as means ± SEM.
