Estrogens Can Disrupt Amphibian Mating Behavior

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The main component of classical contraceptives, 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2), has high estrogenic activity even at environmentally relevant concentrations. Although estrogenic endocrine disrupting compounds are assumed to contribute to the worldwide decline of amphibian populations by adverse effects on sexual differentiation, evidence for EE2 affecting ...

Mating disrupts morning anticipation in Drosophila melanogaster females

open access: yesPLOS Genetics, 2022
Abstract After mating, the physiology of Drosophila females undergoes several important changes, some of which are reflected in their rest-activity cycles. To explore the hypothesis that mating modifies the temporal organization of locomotor activity patterns, we recorded the fly ...
