Evolution of Learning in Three Aplysiid Species: Differences in Heterosynaptic Plasticity Contrast with Conservation in Serotonergic Pathways

We investigated the neurobiological basis of variation in sensitization between three aplysiid species: Aplysia californica , Phyllaplysia taylori and Dolabrifera dolabrifera . We tested two different forms of sensitization induced by a noxious tail shock: local sensitization, expressed near the …
