Fruit Fly Genetics Lab FruitFlyGeneticsLabKelly Hernandez 5/31/14 Drosophila melanogaster is a small‚ commonflyfound near unripe and rottedfruit. It has been in use for over a century to study genetics. Thomas Hunt Morgan was the best biologist studying Drosophila early in the 1900’s. Morg...
researcher W. E. Castle later used them at Woodworth's suggestion (though bred on bananas after too many drowned in the grape juice!), as did Thomas Hunt Morgan who made the fruit fly the centerpiece of his seminal work on genetics. It is now one of the most widely studied model ...
Last week, White and other researchers from the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory published a paper in the journal Nature on a project that combined fruit-fly genetics with the latest in data-mining systems to find a new genetic marker of kidney cancer in humans. Discover th...
"This study is a prime example of how combining UDN's unique team science approach with power of fruit fly genetics is facilitating rapid and phenomenal progress in rare diseases research. We are able to take on cases of patient(s) with mystery conditions, uncover new diseases and find defini...

North Carolina State University researchers have gleaned insight into the genes involved in resistance to nicotine in the lab rat of many gene studies – Drosophila melanogaster, the fruit fly. The research team led by Dr. Greg Gibson, William Neal Reynolds Professor of Genetics, and his graduate...
"The cutting-edge genetics and neurobiology used in this research suggests to us that forfruit fliesat least, it may not be a myth that sexual frustration is a health issue. Expecting sex without any sexual reward was detrimental to their health and cut their lives short." ...
Starting with a white-eyed mutant lured to his lab by an overripe banana, Morgan began a series of breeding experiments that confirmed the presence of a gene for eye color and heralded the birth of fruit fly genetics. Culinary experimentation continued as well; in keeping with his philosophy,...
