FreeClimber: Automated quantification of climbing performance in <i>Drosophila</i> , with examples from mitonuclear genotypes

2020-07-04

Abstract excerpt

Negative geotaxis (climbing) performance is a useful metric for quantifying Drosophila health and vigor. Manual methods to quantify climbing performance are slow, tedious, and may be systematically biased, while available computational methods have inflexible hardware or software requirements. We present an alternative: FreeClimber. This open source, Python-based pipeline subtracts a video’s static background to...
