Low concentrations of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (Yoba®) are safe in male Drosophila melanogaster
Objective The purpose of the study was to generate information on the safety of probiotics, thus the study objectives were to evaluate the effects of Yoba® on basic physiochemical properties.

The control of wing kinematics and flight forces in fruit flies (Drosophila spp.) [PDF]
By simultaneously measuring flight forces and stroke kinematics in several species of fruit flies in the genus Drosophila, we have investigated the relationship between wing motion and aerodynamic force production. We induced tethered flies to vary their

Environmental Effects On Drosophila Brain Development And Learning [PDF]
Brain development and behavior are sensitive to a variety of environmental influences including social interactions and physicochemical stressors. Sensory input in situ is a mosaic of both enrichment and stress, yet little is known about how multiple ...

Female Drosophila melanogaster respond to song-amplitude modulations
Males in numerous animal species use mating songs to attract females and intimidate competitors. We demonstrate that modulations in song amplitude are behaviourally relevant in the fruit fly Drosophila. We show that Drosophila melanogaster females prefer

Drosophila melanogaster mutant tan [PDF]
Drosophila melanogaster gene tan was originally discovered in the early 20th century as a mutant strain lacking the dark pi gment pattern of wild-type (wt) f lies and, therefore, showing a light yellowish brown color (McEwen, 1918 ...

The effects of recombination rate on the distribution and abundance of transposable elements [PDF]
Transposable elements (TEs) often accumulate in regions of the genome with suppressed recombination. But it is unclear whether this pattern reflects a reduction in the efficacy of selection against deleterious insertions or a relaxation of ectopic ...

The onset of homologous chromosome pairing during Drosophila melanogaster embryogenesis. [PDF]
We have determined the position within the nucleus of homologous sites of the histone gene cluster in Drosophila melanogaster using in situ hybridization and high-resolution, three-dimensional wide field fluorescence microscopy.
