Antistress property of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Athimadhura) on stress induced Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2010 Stress is defined as a condition that disturbs the normal function of the biological system or a condition that decreases fitness. The present study was to evaluate the antistress property of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Athimadura).

A comparative analysis of transcription factor expression during metazoan embryonic development [PDF]
, 2013 During embryonic development, a complex organism is formed from a single starting cell. These processes of growth and differentiation are driven by large transcriptional changes, which are following the expression and activity of transcription factors (TFs).

The anomalous tango of hemocyte migration in Drosophila melanogaster embryos [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Drosophila melanogaster hemocytes are highly motile cells that are crucial for successful embryogenesis and have important roles in the organism's immunological response. Hemocyte motion was measured using selective plane illumination microscopy. Every hemocyte cell in one half of an embryo was tracked during embryogenesis and analysed using a deep ...

Iron Absorption in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Nutrients, 2013 The way in which Drosophila melanogaster acquires iron from the diet remains poorly understood despite iron absorption being of vital significance for larval growth. To describe the process of organismal iron absorption, consideration needs to be given to cellular iron import, storage, export and how intestinal epithelial cells sense and respond to ...

Conservation of Olfactory Avoidance in Drosophila Species and Identification of Repellents for Drosophila suzukii. [PDF]
, 2015 Flying insects use olfaction to navigate towards fruits in complex odor environments with remarkable accuracy. Some fruits change odor profiles substantially during ripening and related species can prefer different stages.

Effect of competitive cues on reproductive morphology and behavioral plasticity in male fruitflies [PDF]
, 2015 Phenotypic plasticity will be favored whenever there are significant fitness benefits of responding to environmental variation. The extent and nature of the plasticity that evolves depends on the rate of environmental fluctuations and the capacity to ...

A comparative study of the short term cold resistance response in distantly related Drosophila species: the role of regucalcin and frost. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The molecular basis of short term cold resistance (indexed as chill-coma recovery time) has been mostly addressed in D. melanogaster, where candidate genes (Dca (also known as smp-30) and Frost (Fst)) have been identified.

Pervasive variation of transcription factor orthologs contributes to regulatory network evolution [PDF]
PLOS Genetics 11(3): e1005011. 2015, 2014 Differences in transcriptional regulatory networks underlie much of the phenotypic variation observed across organisms. Changes to cis-regulatory elements are widely believed to be the predominant means by which regulatory networks evolve, yet examples of regulatory network divergence due to transcription factor (TF) variation have also been observed ...

FlyBase: establishing a Gene Group resource for Drosophila melanogaster
Nucleic Acids Res., 2015 Many publications describe sets of genes or gene products that share a common biology. For example, genome-wide studies and phylogenetic analyses identify genes related in sequence; high-throughput genetic and molecular screens reveal functionally ...

A HOMOZYGOUS TRANSLOCATION IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1929 Five cases of translocation involving the third and the fourth chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster have been found in the progeny of flies treated by x-rays. The flies carrying a given translocation seem to be perfectly normal in their appearance, but, when tested genetically, they show linkage of genes belonging to the third with genes belonging to
