Genetic control of courtship behavior in the housefly: evidence for a conserved bifurcation of the sex-determining pathway.
In Drosophila melanogaster, genes of the sex-determination hierarchy orchestrate the development and differentiation of sex-specific tissues, establishing sex-specific physiology and neural circuitry. One of these sex-determination genes, fruitless (fru), plays a key role in the formation of neural...
