Quantitative and Discrete Evolutionary Changes in the Egg-Laying Behavior of Single Drosophila Females

Quantitative and Discrete Evolutionary Changes in the Egg-Laying Behavior of Single Drosophila Females

How a nervous system assembles and coordinates a suite of elementary behavioral steps into a complex behavior is not well understood. While often presented as a stereotyped sequence of events, even extensively studied behaviors such as fly courtship are rarely a strict repetition of the same steps i...
