Drosophila as a new model organism for the neurobiology of aggression?

The Journal of experimental biology - 1 May 2002

Baier Andrea, Wittek Britta, Brembs Björn

Abstract excerpt

We report here the effects of several neurobiological determinants on aggressive behaviour in the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster. This study combines behavioural, transgenic, genetic and pharmacological techniques that are well established in the fruitfly, in the novel context of the neurobiology of aggression. We find that octopamine, dopamine and a region in the Drosophila brain called the mushroom bodies,...
