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

open access: yesJournal 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).

The control of wing kinematics and flight forces in fruit flies (Drosophila spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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

Evidence that natural selection maintains genetic variation for sleep in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundDrosophila melanogaster often shows correlations between latitude and phenotypic or genetic variation on different continents, which suggests local adaptation with respect to a heterogeneous environment.

FlyBase: establishing a Gene Group resource for Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesNucleic 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 ...

The behavior of sympatric Chilean populations of Drosophila larvae during pupation

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 1998
The behavioral mechanisms by which the larvae of sympatric Chilean populations of Drosophila melanogaster, D. simulans, D. hydei and D. busckii select pupation sites are described in terms of larval substrate preferences.

Revised Annotations, Sex-Biased Expression, and Lineage-Specific Genes in the Drosophila melanogaster group

open access: yes, 2014
Here, we provide revised gene models for D. ananassae, D. yakuba, and D. simulans, which include UTRs and empirically verified intron-exon boundaries, as well as ortholog groups identified using a fuzzy reciprocal-best-hit blast comparison.

External control of the Drosophila melanogaster egg to imago development period by specific combinations of 3D low-frequency electric and magnetic fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report that the duration of the egg-to-imago development period of the Drosophila melanogaster, and the imago longevity, are both controllable by combinations of external 3-dimensional (3D) low-frequency electric and magnetic fields (LFEMFs).

The number of neurons in Drosophila and mosquito brains.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Various insect species serve as valuable model systems for investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which a brain controls sophisticated behaviors.

Calcium Imaging in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yes, 2019
Drosophila melanogaster, colloquially known as the fruit fly, is one of the most commonly used model organisms in scientific research. Although the final architecture of a fly and a human differs greatly, most of the fundamental biological mechanisms and pathways controlling development and survival are conserved through evolution between the two ...

Iron Absorption in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesNutrients, 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 ...
