Abstract excerpt
The behavior and physiology of Drosophila are subject to rhythms that are controlled by the circadian clock genes, period, timeless, clock and cycle, all of which are thought to participate in central pacemaker control. The molecular mechanism of rhythm in Drosophila has been studied in detail. However, rhythm and clock genes have mostly been analyzed in Drosophila melanogaster. To confirm whether the tim gene...
