Mate Recognition: Should Fly Stay or Should Fly Go?
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent studies have shown that male fruit flies use close-range olfactory cues to assess the status of potential mating partners. The presence of a volatile, male-derived pheromone can suppress the default male behavioral state of courting females.

Mate choice in fruit flies is rational and adaptive
According to rational choice theory, beneficial preferences should lead individuals to sort available options into linear, transitive hierarchies, although the extent to which non-human animals behave rationally is unclear. Here we demonstrate that mate choice in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster results in the linear sorting of a set of diverse isogenic female lines, unambiguously demonstr...

متن کاملIncestuous Sisters: Mate Preference for Brothers over Unrelated Males in Drosophila melanogaster
The literature is full of examples of inbreeding avoidance, while recent mathematical models predict that inbreeding tolerance or even inbreeding preference should be expected under several realistic conditions like e.g. polygyny. We investigated male and female mate preferences with respect to relatedness in the fruit fly D. melanogaster. Experiments offered the choice between a first order re...
متن کاملEffect of carbon black and fly ash co-fillers content on mechanical and thermal behaviors of styrene butadiene rubber compounds
Fly ash (FA) is produced as a waste byproduct during the burning process of coal in thermal power plants whose cost is primarily associated to cleaning and transportation. It possesses mechanical properties on account of its constituents like silica and alumina. The use of FA as filler in styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) was of researchers’ interest to reinforce and/or to reduce product cost. In ...
متن کاملAn Initial Study on the Coordination of Rod and Line Hauling Movements in Distance Fly Casting
Background. The double haul is a unique feature of single-handed fly casting and is used in both fly fishing and fly casting competition. The movement behaviour during the double haul has not been investigated in previous research. Objectives. Describe the coordination of the rod and line hauling movements during distance fly casting. Methods. Elite fly casters performed distance castin...
