Abstract

This study investigates the mechanisms governing experience-dependent tolerance of bitter compounds in Caenorhabditis elegans. The nematodes showed an aversion to nicotinamide, MgCl2, isoleucine, and arginine in a Gα-dependent manner. Worms furthermore displayed diminished avoidance of MgCl2 upon MgCl2-preconditioning at the larval stages. AIY interneurons have been suggested to be involved in experience-dependent behavioral plasticity.
