  • Antidromic phase shifting of so1 flies was highly dependent on the wavelength (χ2(8,182) = 49.55; p < 0.0001; data at 369 and 395 nm and at 546 and 600 nm pooled). Furthermore, so1 flies overall showed significantly more antidromic phase shifting thanso1; gl60j flies (χ2(1,301) = 50.19; p < 0.0001; data for all wavelengths pooled).
