Animals exhibit sex-specific behaviors that are governed by sexually dimorphic circuits. One such behavior in male , courtship, is regulated by various sensory modalities, including olfaction. Here, we reveal how sexually dimorphic olfactory pathways in male flies converge at the third-order, onto lateral horn output neurons, to regulate courtship.
