Figure 5


Fig. 5. The presence of sucrose in the reward strongly affects the ability of honey bees to recall the olfactory CS. Pollen foragers were conditioned with the APC protocol, the antennal-stimulation-alone (AC) protocol or a protocol where the antennae were stimulated with sucrose solution but the subject was fed water (ACW). (A) The rate of acquisition was greatest for the APC protocol (lreg; {chi} 22=7.80, P=0.040) (NAPC=69; NAC=58; NACW=68). (B) When tested immediately after conditioning, the level of response of subjects to the CS during the first recall trial was not significantly different for the three protocols ({chi} 22=1.60, P=0.449) (NAPC=35; NAC=29; NACW=31). After 24 h, the response of the AC and ACW subjects was significantly lower than the responses of the APC subjects ({chi} 22=9.21, P=0.010) (NAPC=34; NAC=29; NACW=37). *P<0.05.
