Clusters of microRNAs emerge by new hairpins in existing transcripts [PDF]
Genetic linkage may result in the expression of multiple products from a polycistronic transcript, under the control of a single promoter. In animals, protein-coding polycistronic transcripts are rare.

Ageing, Drosophila melanogaster and Epigenetics
Ageing is a phenomenon where the accumulation of all the stresses that alter the functions of living organisms, halter them from maintaining their physiological balance and eventually lead to death. The emergence of epigenetic tremendously contributed to the knowledge of ageing.

Microbiota-mediated competition between Drosophila species
Background The influence of microbiota in ecological interactions, and in particular competition, is poorly known. We studied competition between two insect species, the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii and the model Drosophila melanogaster, whose larval

Conservation of Olfactory Avoidance in Drosophila Species and Identification of Repellents for Drosophila suzukii. [PDF]
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.

Volatile codes: Correlation of olfactory signals and reception in Drosophila-yeast chemical communication. [PDF]
Drosophila have evolved strong mutualistic associations with yeast communities that best support their growth and survival, resulting in the development of novel niches.

Design and construction of a new Drosophila species, D.synthetica, by synthetic regulatory evolution [PDF]
Here, I merge the principles of synthetic biology^1,2^ and regulatory evolution^3-11^ to create a new species^12-15^ with a minimal set of known elements.

Chemoreceptivity ofDrosophila melanogaster [PDF]
The occurrence of mutants ofDrosophila melanogasterdistinguished by the absence or structural modification of the antennae provides a means of assessing the role of the antennae with respect to the reception of various classes of stimuli. Antennaless (A0) phenotypes ofantennalessstock fail to respond to those chemical stimuli which lead the fly to its ...

Multilocus patterns of nucleotide variability and the demographic and selection history of drosophila melanogaster populations [PDF]
Uncertainty about the demographic history of populations can hamper genome-wide scans for selection based on population genetic models. To obtain a portrait of the effects of demographic history on genome variability patterns in Drosophila melanogaster ...

Antistress property of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Athimadhura) on stress induced Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
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).
