This project investigates how fruit flies and honeybees recognize species-specific sounds, focusing on the neurons involved in auditory processing. By using advanced techniques, the research aims to map the auditory circuits in these insects to better understand communication mechanisms.
Acoustic signals are used to communicate in many species.
It is found from insects to humans to, for example, locate preys, in courtship behaviour or to transmit more complex information to other individuals.
To use auditory cues efficiently animals must be able to recognise species-specific sounds.
This means that the auditory system is tuned to these sound patterns.
Current models assume that sound recognition occurs through matched sensory filters along the auditory pathways, but the identifi…
