Birds Do It, Bees Do It, And Even Electric Fish Do It: Cultural Transmission Of Maze Learning In The African Weakly Electric Fish, Gnathonemus Petersii (Mormyridae, Teleostei), Ann Tomaszewicz

Theses and Dissertations

In this study, the ability of a maze-experienced, weakly electric fish to transmit spatial information to an inexperienced conspecific through exposure via paired training in a maze is evaluated using maze trial latency, electric signals discharged within the maze and the subsequent effect of training on molecular markers of memory.
