In vivo RNAi rescue in Drosophila melanogaster with genomic transgenes from Drosophila pseudoobscura. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Systematic, large-scale RNA interference (RNAi) approaches are very valuable to systematically investigate biological processes in cell culture or in tissues of organisms such as Drosophila.

Live Drosophila melanogaster Larvae Deter Oviposition by Drosophila suzukii
The worldwide invasive insect pest, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (spotted-wing Drosophila), lays eggs in soft and stone fruit before harvest. Hatched larvae cause fruit collapse and significant economic losses.

Evolutionary changes in gene expression, coding sequence and copy-number at the Cyp6g1 locus contribute to resistance to multiple insecticides in Drosophila. [PDF]
Widespread use of insecticides has led to insecticide resistance in many populations of insects. In some populations, resistance has evolved to multiple pesticides.

Structural and functional characterization of a putative de novo gene in Drosophila
Previous work identified goddard as a putative de novo evolved gene in Drosophila melanogaster. Here, the authors characterize the structure and function of the Goddard protein in D. melanogaster, and they infer its ancestral and extant structures across

HeT-A_pi1, a piRNA target sequence in the Drosophila telomeric retrotransposon HeT-A, is extremely conserved across copies and species. [PDF]
The maintenance of the telomeres in Drosophila species depends on the transposition of the non-LTR retrotransposons HeT-A, TAHRE and TART. HeT-A and TART elements have been found in all studied species of Drosophila suggesting that their function has ...

Развитие, структура и функции глиальных клеток Drosophila melanogaster
Глиальные клетки (ГК) являются наиболее распространенным типом клеток в центральной нервной системе. Интерес к ним значительно увеличился за последние десятилетия по мере осознания того, что глия является не только «опорными» клетками для нейронов, но ...

Specific Identification Method based on PCR for Drosophila melanogaster
D. melanogaster is one of the most harmful citrus fruit flies having a large number of host plants. The molecular diagnostic method has been created for identification the D. melanogaster from another non-quarantine species Drosophila spp.
