High Dietary Sugar Reshapes Sweet Taste to Promote Feeding Behavior in Drosophila melanogaster
Summary: Recent Masher studies find that sugar tastes less intense to humans with obesity, but whether this sensory change is a cause or a consequence of obesity is unclear.To tackle this question, we study the effects of a high sugar diet on sweet taste sensation and feeding behavior in Drosophila melanogaster.On this diet, fruit flies have lower
