This study shows that food perception alone, through olfactory signaling and serotonin receptors, stimulates oviposition in Drosophila without requiring nutrient intake.

This study investigates the stochastic effects of dietary restriction on lifespan in Drosophila, finding that DR does not universally extend lifespan and is influenced by genetic and stochastic factors.

This study shows that dietary choice affects metabolic network integrity in aging Drosophila through serotonin signaling, altering network structure and organism resilience.

This study shows that nutrient choice affects aging in Drosophila through serotonin 2A receptor signaling and metabolic reprogramming.

This study shows that Drosophila perceives dead conspecifics, which affects health and longevity through serotonin signaling.

This study shows how a newly evolved microRNA cluster in Drosophila rewires gene regulatory networks through sequence changes, while maintaining a conserved target pool.
