PLoS Biology, 2018 Animals live together with diverse bacteria that can impact their biology. In Drosophila melanogaster, gut-associated bacterial communities are relatively simple in composition but also have a strong impact on host development and physiology.

Invasive Drosophila suzukii facilitates Drosophila melanogaster infestation and sour rot outbreaks in the vineyards [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 How do invasive pests affect interactions between members of pre-existing agrosystems? The invasive pest Drosophila suzukii is suspected to be involved in the aetiology of sour rot, a grapevine disease that otherwise develops following Drosophila ...

The Drosophila genome nexus: a population genomic resource of 623 Drosophila melanogaster genomes, including 197 from a single ancestral range population. [PDF]
Genetics, 2015 Hundreds of wild-derived Drosophila melanogaster genomes have been published, but rigorous comparisons across data sets are precluded by differences in alignment methodology.

Drosophila melanogaster as a High-Throughput Model for Host–Microbiota Interactions
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Microbiota research often assumes that differences in abundance and identity of microorganisms have unique influences on host physiology. To test this concept mechanistically, germ-free mice are colonized with microbial communities to assess causation ...

More oxygen during development enhanced flight performance but not thermal tolerance of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2017 High temperatures can stress animals by raising the oxygen demand above the oxygen supply. Consequently, animals under hypoxia could be more sensitive to heating than those exposed to normoxia.

Six new hoverfly species (Diptera: Syrphidae) in the fauna of Serbia [PDF]
Kragujevac Journal of Science, 2021 During a survey conducted from 2018 to 2021, six hoverfly species were registered on the territory of Serbia for the first time: Chalcosyrphus pannonicus (Oldenberg, 1916), Chrysogaster coemiteriorum (Linnaeus, 1758), Eristalinus taeniops (Wiedemann ...

Rapid evolution of piRNA clusters in the Drosophila melanogaster ovary
bioRxiv, 2023 Animal genomes are parasitized by a horde of transposable elements (TEs) whose mutagenic activity can have catastrophic consequences. The piRNA pathway is a conserved mechanism to repress TE activity in the germline via a specialized class of small RNAs ...
