Gut microbiota–mediated lipid accumulation as a driver of evolutionary adaptation to blue light toxicity in <i>Drosophila</i>
2024-08-23
Abstract excerpt
Human agriculture has always raced against insect adaptation, requiring updated pest control methods and knowledge of evolutionary processes. Excessive exposure to blue light (BL) kills a wide range of insect species and has attracted attention as an alternative to chemical pesticides. Here, to understand how insects adapt to BL toxicity, we investigated evolutionary responses to BL toxicity in Drosophila melanog...
