Abstract:
The paper presents some experimental data on the structural gene of tryptophanoxygenase and its role in hereditary determination of learning ability and memory in honey bees. Changes in the memory trace formation were shown to depend on the degree of breaks in the kynurenine and phosphodiesterase activity.
