Genetic modules and networks for behavior: lessons from Drosophila.

Abstract excerpt

Behaviors are quantitative traits determined through actions of multiple genes and subject to genome-environment interactions. Early studies concentrated on analyzing the effects of single genes on behaviors, often generating views of simplified linear genetic pathways. The genome era has generated a profound paradigm shift enabling us to identify all the genes that contribute to expression of a behavioral...
