Important advances have included the discovery of the first evidence that the odour response is governed by neurons, of the intracellular signalling pathways between odorant receptors and sensory neurons, and of specific neurons, receptors and neurotransmitters involved in behaviour adaption following experience.

Despite these miniscule variations, the flies showed a consistent preference for one arm of the maze over the other, the team reports online today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggesting that the flies could tell the difference between the odorants.
