Density‐dependent within‐patch movement behavior of two competing species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Movement behavior is central to understanding species distributions, population dynamics and coexistence with other species. Although the relationship between conspecific density and emigration has been well studied, little attention has been paid to how

Chemical communication of emigration behavior of Drosophila melanogaster. II. Identification of chemical substances.

open access: yesThe Japanese Journal of Genetics, 1991
Two chemical substances isolated from adult flies of Drosophila melanogaster differently affected the emigration activity of genetically different strains. These substances were identified as palmitic acid and oleic acid, respectively. Chemical and biological comparisons of the natural and authentic compounds showed them to be identical.
