Drosophila melanogaster‚ more commonly known as the fruit fly‚ is commonly used as a model organism in genetic research. Using D. melanogaster has a multitude of practical advantages for researchers. These include a fast reproduction cycle of approximately 30 days‚ small physical size‚ cost-effective culture and growth in large quantities‚ and a small genome size of 4 pairs of chromosomes. A basic understanding of the anatomy and genetics of D. melanogaster is necessary before preforming genetics

In this population cage‚ it used Drosophila melanogaster because is a common model organism for genetic studies. In this population cage‚ it was calculated the coefficient of selection of an actual sample and an ago sample. In this experiment‚ it was used the actual sample #4 and the ago sample #3. The result of the coefficient of selection should be at the rate between 0 and 1. The result was 0.82‚ so it was a good result of the coefficient of selection between these two samples (#4 and #3).

Taste discrimination in young and old Drosophila melanogaster Introduction The ability to discriminate taste is critical for the survival and nutrition of an organism (Sellier et al.‚ 2010‚ Gordesky-Gold et al.‚ 2008). Many animals rely on their taste organs to detect and discriminate various types of taste such as sweet or bitter (Weiss et al.‚ 2011). When these organs come in contact with a food source‚ signals are sent to taste receptor cells. The activation of certain taste receptor cells by

Drosophila melanogaster - Sex linkage and inheritance of genes through cross breeding Abstract This experiment looks at the relationship between genes‚ generations of a population and if genes are carried from one generation to another. By studying Drosophila melanogaster‚ starting with a parent group we crossed a variety of flies and observe the characteristics of the F1 generation. We then concluded that sex-linked genes and autosomal genes could indeed be traced through from the parent generation
