Abstract
Two different assays for chemosensory behaviour were performed on normal Drosophila melanogaster adults that had been raised and tested at various temperatures. The temperatures at which the flies were raised, maintained as adults and tested affected their ability to extend the proboscis in response to stimulation of the tarsal chemoreceptors with sucrose. Testing flies at temperatures that were different from the ones at which the flies had been raised also affected their performance in an hour-long assay for sucrose consumption.
