Evolution of a pest: towards the complete neuroethology of Drosophila suzukii and the subgenus Sophophora [PDF]
bioRxiv, 2019 Comparative analysis of multiple genomes has been used extensively to examine the evolution of chemosensory receptors across the genus Drosophila. However, few studies have delved into functional characteristics, as most have relied exclusively on genomic data alone, especially for non-model species.

Another way of being anisogamous in Drosophila subgenus species: giant sperm, one-to-one gamete ratio, and high zygote provisioning. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1994 It is generally assumed that sexes in animals have arisen from a productivity versus provisioning conflict; males are those individuals producing gametes necessarily small, in excess, and individually bereft of all paternity assurance. A 1- to 2-cm sperm,

Differential attraction of drosophilids to banana baits inoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Hanseniaspora uvarum within a Neotropical forest remnant [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Yeasts are a necessary requisite in the diet of most Drosophila species that, in turn, may vector their dispersal in natural environments.

Genetics and Molecular BiologyTo explore the diversity of scenarios in nature, animals have evolved tools to interact with different environmental conditions. Chemoreceptors are an important interface component and among them, olfactory receptors (ORs) and gustatory receptors (GRs ...

Concurrent duplication of the Cid and Cenp-C genes in the Drosophila subgenus with signatures of subfunctionalization and male germline-biased expression [PDF]
, 2017 AbstractDespite their essential role in the process of chromosome segregation in eukaryotes, kinetochore proteins are highly diverse across species, being lost, duplicated, created, or diversified during evolution. Based on comparative genomics, the duplication of the inner kinetochore proteins CenH3 and Cenp-C, which are interdependent in their roles ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998 We describe a gene from Drosophila melanogaster related to the alpha-amylase gene Amy. This gene, which exists as a single copy, was named Amyrel. It is strikingly divergent from Amy because the amino acid divergence is 40%.
