Genetics on the Fly: A Primer on the Drosophila Model System
2015年11月11日 · Genetic studies in Drosophila spermatocytes have revealed important mechanisms regulating cleavage furrow formation, aspects of contractile ring formation and function, as well as the role of membrane trafficking from internal compartment in cytokinesis (Giansanti and Fuller 2012).
Genetics on the Fly: A Primer on the Drosophila Model System
Fruit flies of the genus Drosophila have been an attractive and effective genetic model organism since Thomas Hunt Morgan and colleagues made seminal discoveries with them a century ago. Work with Drosophila has enabled dramatic advances in cell and developmental biology, neurobiology and behavior, …
Drosophila : Genetics meets behaviour - Nature
2001年11月1日 · Drosophila is an exceptionally useful genetic model used for the study of simple and complex behaviours, and its use has given an important insight into the molecular, cellular and evolutionary...
Drosophila and the Molecular Genetics of Pattern Formation ...
The fly Drosophila has been the foremost model organism for study of the genetics of animal development. Like other insects, it begins its development with a series of nuclear divisions generating a syncytium, and a large amount of early patterning occurs in this single giant multinucleate cell.
Drosophila – a versatile model in biology & medicine
2011年5月1日 · Over the past four decades, Drosophila has become a predominant model used to understand how genes direct the development of an embryo from a single cell to a mature multicellular organism.
