Cellular mechanism of brain lateral asymmetry and parallel processin

Papilio的遗传照相系统-我们演示了女性遗传照相机的光输入是卵巢的关键。我们在肠道神经系统的神经结构中研究了横向不对称，但没有明确的不对称在男性或女性中被识别。Papilio的彩色视觉系统，我们发现了Papilio的化合物眼睛含有三种不同类型的Omatidia每个承载不同类型的光谱接收器。这是一个巨大的分裂，但随机地越过视网膜。这样的组织在蝴蝶中间是很大的。我们在Papilio视网膜中鉴定了一种新颖的retinol结合蛋白，并将该蛋白作为Papilio retinol结合蛋白（Papilio RBP）。这种蛋白质可能会在视觉颜料的逆转中发生。我们通过分子生物学、电生理学和历史学进行了演示，即Papilio retina中的宽带接收器，以充分地表达绿色吸收和红吸收视觉颜料。我们证明，Lamina Cartridges的神经网络在络合物类型之间是不同的，以识别光谱接收器的结构的轴突末端的具体结构，以确定每个络合物类型。我们根据Bodian支架、Golgi支架和染料注射方法构建了一张基于Papilio大脑的地图。我们是通过行为实验来演示的，即预测Papilio具有颜色稳定性。我们建立了一个Y-Maze实验设置和协议，将用于衡量Papilio视觉系统的空间重建能力，例如，我们将使用单色灯光的培训/学习系统，将用于衡量波幅识别能力或预测Papilio，例如。

Genital photoreceptive system of Papilio・ We demonstrated that the light input from the female genital photoreceptors is crucial for oviposition.・ We studied lateral asymmetry in the neuronal structure of the vental nervous system, but no clear asymmetry was identified either in males or in females.Color vision system of Papilio・ We discovered that the compound eye of Papilio contains three different types of ommatidia each bearing different sets of spectralk receptors. These ommatidia distribute rather randomly over the retina. Such organization is widespread among butterflies.・ We identified a novel retinol-binding protein in the retina of Papilio, and termed the protein as Papilio retinol-binding protein (Papilio RBP). This protein is probably involved in visual pigment turnover.・ We demonstrated by molecular biology, electrophysiology and histology that the broadband receptors in the Papilio retina appeared to be expressing green-absorbing and red-absorbing visual pigments simultaneously.・ We demonstrated that neuronal network of lamina cartridges are different between ommatidial types by identifying the structure of the axon termini of spectral receptors specific to each type of ommatidium.・ We constructed a map of the Papilio brain based on Bodian staining, Golgi staining, and dye injection method.・ We demonstrated by behavioral experiments that foraging Papilio has color constancy.・ We established a Y-maze experimental setup and protocol, which will be used to measure spacial revolving power of Papilio visual system, for example・ We established a training/learning system using monochromatic lights, which will be used to measure wavelength discrimination ability or the foraging Papilio, for example.
