Neuroscience: Hidden female talent
Jai Y. Yu1 & Barry J. Dickson1
Abstract
A male fruitfly serenades his female with a courtship song produced by vibrating one wing. The female also has the neuronal circuitry to generate a song of her own, but her brain tells her not to.
Male flies tend to put on quite a show when it comes to sex. They have to.
- Jai Y. Yu and Barry J. Dickson are at the Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Dr.-Bohr-Gasse 7, 1030 Vienna, Austria.
