  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Social hierarchy is established and maintained with distinct acts of aggression in male Drosophila melanogaster
    Jasper C. Simon, Ulrike Heberlein
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb232439 doi: 10.1242/jeb.232439 Published 23 December 2020

    Summary: Precise descriptions of aggression aligned to changes in social status reveal how the recurring sequence and escalation of distinct behaviors relate to the establishment, maintenance and reversal of social dominance.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    The relationship between longevity and diet is genotype dependent and sensitive to desiccation in Drosophila melanogaster
    Andrew W. McCracken, Eleanor Buckle, Mirre J. P. Simons
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb230185 doi: 10.1242/jeb.230185 Published 2 December 2020

    Summary: Lifespan extension under dietary restriction can occasionally be obscured. In Drosophila melanogaster, a robust appreciation of dietary reaction norms is necessary to conclude an absence of the dietary restriction longevity effect.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    An amino-acid mixture can be both rewarding and punishing to larval Drosophila melanogaster
    Naoko Toshima, Melisa Kantar Weigelt, Aliće Weiglein, Fabian A. Boetzl, Bertram Gerber
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb209486 doi: 10.1242/jeb.209486 Published 28 November 2019

    Summary: A 20-amino-acid mixture can be both rewarding and punishing, suggesting that oppositely valenced parallel memories for it could be established in maggots.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Food-derived volatiles enhance consumption in Drosophila melanogaster
    Carolina E. Reisenman, Kristin Scott
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb202762 doi: 10.1242/jeb.202762 Published 29 May 2019

    Summary: Fruit flies integrate diverse olfactory and gustatory cues to guide feeding decisions, including situations in which animals are confronted with stimuli of opposite valence.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Visuomotor strategies for object approach and aversion in Drosophila melanogaster
    Jean-Michel Mongeau, Karen Y. Cheng, Jacob Aptekar, Mark A. Frye
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb193730 doi: 10.1242/jeb.193730 Published 1 February 2019

    Summary: Animals classify stimuli to generate appropriate motor actions; aversive responses to a small object in Drosophila melanogaster are driven in part by processes that elicit signed saccades with distinct dynamics and trigger mechanisms.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Thermosensory perception regulates speed of movement in response to temperature changes in Drosophila melanogaster
    Andrea Soto-Padilla, Rick Ruijsink, Ody C. M. Sibon, Hedderik van Rijn, Jean-Christophe Billeter
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb174151 doi: 10.1242/jeb.174151 Published 22 May 2018

    Highlighted Article: Although flies modulate speed in response to temperature following the same dynamic as metabolic reactions, this response is controlled by the nervous system and not by a direct thermal influence on metabolism.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Hormetic benefits of prior anoxia exposure in buffering anoxia stress in a soil-pupating insect
    Bertanne Visser, Caroline M. Williams, Daniel A. Hahn, Clancy A. Short, Giancarlo López-Martínez
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb167825 doi: 10.1242/jeb.167825 Published 19 March 2018

    Summary: Prior anoxia exposure benefits organismal performance, increases lipid levels and reduces the oxygen debt compared with a singular exposure to anoxia in the Caribbean fruit fly.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Flight control of fruit flies: dynamic response to optic flow and headwind
    Kiaran K. K. Lawson, Mandyam V. Srinivasan
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 2005-2016; doi: 10.1242/jeb.153056

    Summary: Measurement and characterisation of the dynamic flight response of fruit flies reveal that their flight controller weighs visual and wind stimuli approximately equally, to produce flight thrust and adjust the pitch of the abdomen.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Drosophila females trade off good nutrition with high-quality oviposition sites when choosing foods
    Mathieu Lihoreau, Laure-Anne Poissonnier, Guillaume Isabel, Audrey Dussutour
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 2514-2524; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142257

    Summary: Flies uncouple feeding and egg-laying decisions to balance their diet and provide a nutritionally optimal environment for their progeny, indicating a certain complexity in the nutritional ecology of parent–offspring interactions.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Arginine and proline applied as food additives stimulate high freeze tolerance in larvae of Drosophila melanogaster
    Vladimír Koštál, Jaroslava Korbelová, Rodolphe Poupardin, Martin Moos, Petr Šimek
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 2358-2367; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142158

    Highlighted Article: Development of a laboratory technique that secures high survival of the tropical fly Drosophila melanogaster when most of its body water is frozen.
