About Drosophila
Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as the fruit fly, has been used in biological research for more than a century. Its short life cycle, well-mapped genome and powerful genetic tools allow researchers to investigate inheritance, development, ageing, behaviour, neuroscience and cancer. Studies using Drosophila have helped uncover chromosome-based inheritance, body-patterning genes, circadian rhythms and innate immunity.
