Experiment I: Pre-conditioning PC ablation impaired odor-aversion learning. (A) Experimental schedule. (B) The avoidance rate (%) was substantially reduced in the PC-ablated group in comparison to the sham-operated groups on the day after the conditioning (P < 0.001 by χ2 test). The numerals above the columns indicate the number of slugs used for the conditioning.
