Electromagnetic field effects in Drosophila melanogaster
Many higher animals have evolved the ability to use the Earth’s magnetic field, particularly for orientation. However, the biophysical mechanism by which magnetoreception is achieved remains elusive. One theoretical model (the radical pair mechanism - RPM) proposes that the geomagnetic field is perc...
