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)
Year: 2016
Type: dissertation
Abstract: 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.
