24. sWT but lacking as a result of the Q215L mutation.
25. 238Y and 201Y are described in (7) and C232 in (18). C747 shows identical expression to that of C772 (17) (24). C309 is described by J. D. Armstrong [thesis, University of Glasgow, Scotland (1995)]. The O'Kane laboratory screened 500 P-GAL4 lines to identify OK66, OK86, OK62, OK107, OK348, and OK415.

28. s* insertion. We characterized a total of two P-GAL4 insertions (C232 and OK348) that expressed to some degree in the CC.
29. s* in the CC does not affect learning. Formally, however, we cannot exclude the possibility that other sites of convergence of the CS and US contribute to the conditioned behavior, as in honey-bees [M. Hammer and R. Menzel, J. Neurosci. 15, 1617 (1995)].

33. Pan-neural expression was driven by P-GAL4 1407 [generated by J. Urban and G. Technau; described in L. Luo, Y. Liao, L. Jan, Y. Jan, Genes Dev. 8, 1787 (1994)].
34. s* lines. Brains from the resultant progeny were dissected, and β-Gal activity was detected as described [S. T. Sweeney, K. Broadie, J. Keane, H. Niemann, C. J. O'Kane, Neuron 14, 341 (1995)].
