Viral infection causes sex-specific changes in fruit fly social aggregation behaviour

2019-05-07

Abstract excerpt

Host behavioural changes following infection are common and could be important determinants of host behavioural competence to transmit pathogens. Identifying potential sources of variation in sickness behaviours is therefore central to our understanding of disease transmission. Here, we test how group social aggregation and individual locomotor activity vary between different genotypes of male and female fruit fli...
