Fig. 4. Training across the artificial hill set-up (compare
Fig. 3C), experimental data I
(shaving). The top panels show search density plots (abscissae, homing
distances; ordinates, cumulated relative search densities between the first
and sixth turning points; see Materials and methods). The bottom diagrams
display box-and-whisker plots (medians of the initial six turning points),
derived from the same data sets (N=15–20 ants for each
experimental situation). 0–0, 0–1 and 1–1 are double-digit
codes for the particular test situation, the first digit represents the
outbound run and the second digit represents the homebound run; 0 denotes the
normal situation, 1 denotes the manipulated condition. (A) Animals with the
hair plates in their neck region shaved. (B) Animals with the hair plates in
the petiole–gaster region shaved. (C) Animals with both neck and
petiole–gaster regions shaved.
