The presence of geosmin has no measurable effects on sucrose consumption. (a–e) Consumption time of immobilized Canton-S flies measured by the temporal consumption assay. In (a–d), flies were food-deprived for the indicated durations and tested with the indicated concentrations of sucrose solution, either without or with 1:1000 geosmin. In (e), flies were food-deprived for 24 h and tested with 300 mM sucrose, either without or with 50 mM caffeine. For box plots: whiskers = 10th–90th percentile, box = 25th–75th percentile, and line within box = median. Dots represent individual data points. N = 31–77 flies/genotype; Mann–Whitney test, ns = not significant; ***p < 0.001.
