OverviewAI-generated summary
Yi Ting Ter's research investigates behavioral plasticity and sensory processing in butterflies, specifically focusing on the role of the gene "yellow." Their work explores how this gene regulates male courtship behavior and influences learning related to mating preferences. Publications examine the temporal dynamics of female olfactory sensitivity in relation to male courtship, and how developmental plasticity in male courtship is driven by hormone regulation of the "yellow" gene. Ter also studies divergent sensory transcriptomic profiles associated with positive and negative learning in butterflies, and the influence of the "yellow" gene on aversive mate preference learning.
Ter collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Erica L. Westerman, Neelendra K. Joshi, and Matthew J. Murphy, with whom they share multiple publications. Their h-index is 2 with 25 citations across 7 publications.
