Phenotypic association of spontaneous ovulation and sexual receptivity in virgin females of Drosophila melanogaster mutants.

Behavior genetics - 1 Sept 2001

Ejima A, Nakayama S, Aigaki T

Abstract excerpt

In Drosophila melanogaster females, mating stimulates ovulation/oviposition and switches off receptivity. To investigate the relationship between ovulation and receptivity, we searched for genetic variants in which ovulation occurs in virgins and characterized their behavioral phenotype. Among a collection of 333 P-element insertion lines, we identified eight lines that showed elevated ovulation in virgins. These...
