MBLK-1/E93, AN ECDYSONE RELATED-TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR, TARGETS SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY-RELATED GENES IN THE HONEY BEE MUSHROOM BODIES

Mblk-1/E93, an ecdysone related-transcription factor, targets synaptic plasticity-related genes in the honey bee mushroom bodies

Abstract Among hymenopteran insects, aculeate species such as bees, ants, and wasps have enlarged and morphologically elaborate mushroom bodies (MBs), a higher-order brain center in the insect, implying their relationship with the advanced behavioral traits of aculeate species.The molecular bases leading to the acquisition of complicated MB functio
