Neuroscience : Flies and grits
(2021) In Current Biology 31(9). p.442-443- Abstract
Food texture affects palatability. A new study finds that the common dew fly Drosophila melanogaster is also choosy when it comes to food texture. Flies evaluate size and presence of food particles through neurons in the tongue that express the mechanically activated channel protein TMEM63.
