Material contributed by Drosophila workers was arranged by C.B. Bridges and M. Demerec. As noted in its preface, which is reprinted in DIS 75, Drosophila Information Service was undertaken because, "An appreciable share of credit for the fine accomplishments in Drosophila genetics is due to the broadmindedness of the original Drosophila workers who established the policy of a free exchange of material and information among all actively interested in Drosophila research. This policy has proved to be a great stimulus for the use of Drosophila material in genetic research and is directly responsible for many important contributions." During the more than 60 years following that first issue, DIS has continued to promote open communication. The production of DIS 80 could not have been completed without the generous efforts of many people. Diane Jackson and Stanton Gray helped prepare and proof manuscripts; Gloria Stephens, Diane Jackson, Shalia Newby, and Caroline Tawes maintained key records; and Coral McCallster advised on artwork and computer graphics. Two special issues of Drosophila Information Service have appeared since DIS 77, the 1996 regular issue. DIS 78 and 79 were edited by William Gelbart on behalf of the FlyBase Consortium. Information on these two special issues can be obtained from Tatiana Murnkova (e-mail, dis78~morgan.harvard.edu). Because so much of the lengthy stock list and bibliographic data printed in previous DIS issues is now either available through electronic sources like FlyBase or these special issues, we expect that the regular annual issue will focus more exclusively on research, technque, new mutant, and teaching notes and on lists of supplementary or supporting data that cannot be included in research articles published elsewhere. Your contributions to any of these sections are warmly welcomed. We are grateful for the continued support of the DIS Advisory Group: Michael Ashburner (Cambridge University), Daniel Hartl (Harvard University), Kathleen Matthews (Indiana University), and RC. Woodruff (Bowling Green State University). The publication of Drosophila Information Service is supported in part by a grant from the National Science Foundation to RC. Woodruff for the Mid-America Drosophila melanogaster Stock Center, Bowling Green, Ohio. We hope that you find a lot of useful information here, and we invite you to let us know what can be done to improve DIS as a source of communication among Drosophila researchers. James N.

  • Comparison of Baits for Monitoring the Spotted Wing Drosophila, Drosophila Suzukii
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Joseph R. Kleiber for the degree of Master of Science in Horticulture presented on June 6, 2013 Title: Comparison of Baits for Monitoring the Spotted Wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Abstract approved: Denny J. Bruck Spotted wing Drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a pest of small and stone fruits that is widely distributed across much of the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. Unlike other members of the Drosophilidae that only lay eggs in overripe or rotting fruit, SWD infest ripening and ripe fruit. The female SWD has a serrated ovipositor that allows her to lay eggs under the skin of a wide range of fruits, where the eggs hatch into larvae and they consume the inside of the fruit. This feeding results in fruit collapse and deterioration, and the hole created by the oviposition puncture allows for secondary infection by microorganisms, yield losses, reduced fruit quality and degrades. The current control is to apply an insecticide treatment when the fruit begins to color and continue to keep the crop protected with chemical treatments until harvest is complete. The current monitoring tools are not sensitive enough to attract SWD at the critical time to establish economic thresholds, appropriately time treatments and allow growers to make good management decisions. The objective of this research project was to determine if a more sensitive attractant than the currently standard 5% acidity apple cider vinegar traps could be defined. A number of food products and commercially available lures were tested in greenhouse and field experiments for their attractiveness to D.

  • Terrestrial Insects and Climate Change: Adaptive Responses in Key Traits
    Physiological Entomology (2019), DOI: 10.1111/phen.12282 Terrestrial insects and climate change: adaptive responses in key traits VANESSA KELLERMANN andBELINDA VAN HEERWAARDEN School of Biological Sciences, Monash University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Abstract. Understanding and predicting how adaptation will contribute to species’ resilience to climate change will be paramount to successfully managing biodiversity for conservation, agriculture, and human health-related purposes. Making predictions that capture how species will respond to climate change requires an understanding of how key traits and environmental drivers interact to shape fitness in a changing world. Current trait-based models suggest that low- to mid-latitude populations will be most at risk, although these models focus on upper thermal limits, which may not be the most important trait driving species’ distributions and fitness under climate change. In this review, we discuss how different traits (stress, fitness and phenology) might contribute and interact to shape insect responses to climate change. We examine the potential for adaptive genetic and plastic responses in these key traits and show that, although there is evidence of range shifts and trait changes, explicit consideration of what underpins these changes, be that genetic or plastic responses, is largely missing. Despite little empirical evidence for adaptive shifts, incorporating adaptation into models of climate change resilience is essential for predicting how species will respond under climate change. We are making some headway, although more data are needed, especially from taxonomic groups outside of Drosophila, and across diverse geographical regions. Climate change responses are likely to be complex, and such complexity will be difficult to capture in laboratory experiments.

    Heredity (1976), 36 (3), 293-304 REASSOCIATIONPATTERNS AMONG SEGMENTAL INTERCHANGES IN MAIZE D.B. WALDEN and R. C. JANCEY Department of Plant Sciences,Universityof WesternOntario,London, Ontario N6A 3K7 Received2.iv.75 SUMMARY Data from Longley (1961) and Burnham (1969) on the cytological position of the break-points in chrornosomal rearrangements in maize were re-expressed in terms of segment lengths and analysed. After correction for the deviation of the distribution of break-points from an equidistribution, it was shown that highly significant excesses and deficits occurred among some but not all segment length classes. It was concluded that the pattern of reassociation shows: (i) that reassociation involves non-homologues whose interstitial segments are of similar length more frequently than expected; (ii) that the two interchange segments involved in a translocation are of similar length more frequently than expected. 1. INTRODUCTION AN extensive literature exists on the genetic effects and consequences of exposure to radiation and radiomimetic and radiochemical compounds. The origin of chromosomal aberrations had long been considered to be the consequence of" breakage and reunion" until Revell (1955) proposed an "exchange" hypothesis as an alternative. The distribution of the "breakage" or "exchange" events has been approximately determined in several species, with a" random "distribution being claimed by some workers and a "non-random" distribution favoured by several recent investigators (e.g. Caspersson et al., 1972). It is important for the present communication to note that most of the studies record observations made one or a few cell generations after exposure to the mutagen and that only limited information is available about the survival of the aberrations so induced.

    Heredity 80 (1998) 642–650 Received 3 September 1997 Inheritance of behavioural differences between two interfertile, sympatric species, Drosophila silvestris and D. heteroneura CHRISTINE R. B. BOAKE*, DONALD K. PRICE% & DEBRA K. ANDREADIS Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN 37996, U.S.A. The Hawaiian fly species, Drosophila silvestris and D. heteroneura, are sympatric and interfertile but show strong behavioural isolation and major differences in male aggressive behaviour and the associated morphology. As a first step in elucidating the genetic control of the differences between these species, we examined the mating and aggressive behaviour of their reciprocal F1 hybrids. The latency to the first wing vibration and the latency to copulate did not differ significantly between the parental species. However, D. heteroneura females had a very low tendency to copulate with D. silvestris males, rarely mating during the observation period. The duration of copulation also differed significantly: same-species pairs of D. silvestris had copula- tions that lasted about 50% longer than those of same-species pairs of D. heteroneura. The hybrids were intermediate between the parental species for both the tendency to copulate with D. silvestris males and the duration of copulation, suggesting codominance or polygenic inherit- ance for those traits. The aggression traits that we scored were the leg posture and wing extension during early aggression, and the leg posture and head position during escalated aggression. The parental species showed clear differences for each of these traits. The F1 hybrids resembled one parent or the other, without showing intermediate values, suggesting single-gene dominance or threshold expression of many genes for those traits.

Abstract I used Drosophila melanogaster as a model to study the role of the gut microbiota, specifically yeasts, in animal physiology. I used Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast commonly included in Drosophila diet, and Lachancea kluyveri, isolated from some Drosophila in the wild, and generated axenic (germ-free) and gnotobiotic (yeast-fed) flies. I found that L. kluyveri persists in the crop, as ascospores and vegetative cells, longer than S. cerevisiae. Some L. kluyveri vegetative cells survive passage through the gut. Egg to adult development time is reduced by 14% in vials containing live L. kluyveri or S. cerevisiae, whereas heat-killed yeasts reduced development time by 3.5-4.5%.
