Coupled oscillators control morning and evening locomotor behaviour of Drosophila.

Nature - 14 Oct 2004

Stoleru Dan, Peng Ying, Agosto José, Rosbash Michael

Abstract excerpt

Daily rhythms of physiology and behaviour are precisely timed by an endogenous circadian clock. These include separate bouts of morning and evening activity, characteristic of Drosophila melanogaster and many other taxa, including mammals. Whereas multiple oscillators have long been proposed to orchestrate such complex behavioural programmes, their nature and interplay have remained elusive. By using...
