Characterization of the Sexually Dimorphic fruitless Neurons That Regulate Copulation Duration
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Male courtship in Drosophila melanogaster is a sexually dimorphic innate behavior that is hardwired in the nervous system. Understanding the neural mechanism of courtship behavior requires the anatomical and functional characterization of all the neurons

Neuropeptide F regulates courtship in Drosophila through a male-specific neuronal circuit
eLife, 2019 Male courtship is provoked by perception of a potential mate. In addition, the likelihood and intensity of courtship are influenced by recent mating experience, which affects sexual drive.

Fruitless mutant male mosquitoes gain attraction to human odor
eLife, 2020 The Aedes aegypti mosquito shows extreme sexual dimorphism in feeding. Only females are attracted to and obtain a blood-meal from humans, which they use to stimulate egg production.
