This project investigates how the 'fruitless' gene influences the development of neural circuits that govern courtship behavior in fruit flies. By exploring the molecular mechanisms involved, it aims to reveal how specific genes can dictate innate behaviors through neural circuitry.
Innate behaviours are well studied in many animals and yet little is known regarding how these behaviours are encoded via neural circuitry and how genes regulate their development. A number of “master switch” genes have been defined that specify (i.e. are necessary and sufficient for) developmental processes, e.g. the eyeless gene, which regulates the differentiation of multiple cell types to direct eye formation, even when expressed ectopically (1).
Less well defined however is if, and how, mas…
