Piezo-mediated mechanosensation contributes to stabilizing copulation posture and reproductive success in Drosophila males
Summary: In internal fertilization animals, reproductive success depends on maintaining copulation until gametes are transported from male to female. In Drosophila melanogaster, mechanosensation in males likely contributes to copulation maintenance, but its molecular underpinning remains to be ident...
