... stimuli might be considered ‘synergistic’ ( Raguso, 2004 ; Raguso and Willis, 2002 ), because the combined signal allowed a high bimodal associative learning, while its elements resulted in a low learning performance on their own. In contrast, although when employing mid and high intensity stimulus...

...Maarten Wissink; Volker Nehring ABSTRACT Associative learning relies on the detection of coincidence between a stimulus and a reward or punishment. In the insect brain, this process is carried out in the mushroom bodies under the control of octopaminergic and dopaminergic neurons. It was assumed...

...Anuradha Batabyal; Veronica Rivi; Cristina Benatti; Johanna M. C Blom; Ken Lukowiak ABSTRACT Animals respond to acute stressors by modifying their behaviour and physiology. The pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis exhibits configural learning (CL), a form of higher order associative learning. In CL snails...

Altogether, these results imply that GLY at concentrations found in agro-ecosystems as a result of standard spraying can reduce sensitivity to nectar reward and impair associative learning in honeybees...

... that associative learning actually occurs by means of trophallaxis. Animals associate the odour (as the conditioned stimulus or CS) and the sucrose (as the unconditioned stimulus or US) present in the solution they receive through trophallaxis. Moreover, this particular kind of learning leads to long-term...
