Abstract excerpt
Larval salivary gland cells of Drosophila melanogaster were injected with a fluorescent dye to assess strengths of intercellular communication among such cells, as influenced by mutations at the period locus and by a per transgene. This clock gene had been reported to increase the extent of dye transfer when mutated such that it shortens the period of biological rhythms; the previous study also showed that a...
