Abstract excerpt
The effects of mutations that change the level of biogenic amines (octopamine and dopamine) on stress-reactivity and fitness of Drosophila imagoes are considered. It has been shown that (1) the biogenic amines represent an important but not triggering factor of the development of stress reaction; (2) under normal conditions, reproduction is regulated by genes that control dopamine metabolic pathways (indirectly...
