作者宣称，他们有没有竞争的财务权益。

这些数据表明，CO 2麻醉的影响是物种之间不一致，用两个3种示出的影响不大。我们的研究结果表明食物染料标记有比二氧化碳对雄性交配成功率较低的影响，2麻醉D.果蝇 。这些实验表明，食用染料能够容易且便宜地被用于标签苍蝇涉及多个雄性交配测定。 这三个模型果蝇的研究中，只有D.果蝇表现出的CO 2麻醉对交配的表现在竞争激烈的情况下的效果。相比之下，没有一个品种表现出交配潜伏期，违背了先前的结果D.方面收集的气体在单交配试验效果果蝇 5。竞争的效果，因此可突出二氧化碳麻醉更微妙的健身效果，这是唯一的检测在情况下，有男男性竞争。曝光在早期收集和前一天的试对D的男性的能力产生不利影响果蝇获得配合。暴露试验前两天但是没有显示出任何效果。 D.两者pseudoobscura和D. subobscura没有表现出暴露于气体中的任何一种试验中没有任何影响。一种解释是D.果蝇易受早期接触的CO 2，因为它必须被前面的寿命收集（0 - 6小时龄）比其他物种，以确保男性是处女。因此，男性D.这个年龄段的果蝇可能更敏感的苍蝇的角质层仍然硬化，相比已不再有他们的角质层硬化的其他物种。在一般情况下，这支持了的CO 2麻醉的效果是特定物种和调查人员应适当地测试在他们的目标物种的效果。 Currently，则多数工作的对CO 2麻醉的效果已经进行了对果蝇 5,11,22，因此可能不适合应用到其他相关的物种。 呈现给区分苍蝇的可选择的非侵入性方法是食品染料。结果表明这种治疗方法已经在所有物种检查没有影响。然而，虽然它的用途是成功的在个人之间进行区分，提供一种便宜和容易看见标记应当注意的是，该染料是更容易辨别在D. pseudoobscura和D. subobscura比D.果蝇。以前的作者已经使用了多种颜色（红，绿和蓝）4,6。我们发现蓝色着色是最容易区分所有物种，特别是D. pseudoobscura和D. subobscura。用几种颜色将有可能让更多的复杂的实验，有许多单独标记flie秒。然而，不同的染料的初步测试是必不可少的，因为有些食物染料未能颜色苍蝇，食用时有可能被消化。其它染料可具有毒性作用，降低了苍蝇生存，并且应避免14）。使用更昂贵的污渍的替代食品着色方法也被用于为D.检查肠道完整性23 果蝇，这些可以提供另一种选择，虽然价格较贵，染色法23。 染料的方法是一样快的CO 2翼剪取苍蝇可存储在染色食品从收集。食物的摄取是快速（〜3小时），所以存储O / N上的各色美食也足以标记苍蝇，在其他研究中使用6。然而，着色的持续时间相对较短（〜4 - 5小时）相比，翼削波（永久）或荧光标记的灰尘（10 - 19天）24。由于果蝇而变化的外观，不同的染料会或多或少有效针对不同的物种，并作为一些菌株（ 例如 ，敲除突变体）可以是易受改变饮食，任何使用的染料要求其有效性尤其是当较长的初步试验长期接触染料可能是有毒的14。与此相反的研究卡劳等人 14，我们发现存储多天之后没有显著死亡率有色食品D.果蝇 （3天），D。 pseudoobscura（5天）或D. subobscura（7天），可能是由于在染料的差使用。 为成功地使用的染料技术的关键步骤是步骤1.5，验证所选择的染料可以很好地被使用的物种和菌株。另一种技术涉及将彩色尘埃向在田间试验24在使用前即时的外侧。这种方法已被用于在该领域，由于吨追踪个体Ø标记的持续时间和质量的易用性标志苍蝇24。虽然我们还没有明确地测试此方法在交配试验中，它以检查任何影响的灰尘有可能对在交配重要，特别是在果蝇 25,26感官将是重要的，在物种，但是，其中肠染色是不可能的，这些方法可能是合适的。 总之，我们发现，在2所测试的3种（D. pseudoobscura和D subobscura）的没有发现任何的CO 2麻醉或雄性的交配能力食用色素的效果。对于D.果蝇的二氧化碳麻醉的负面影响被检测到，但食用色素并没有影响交配成功在这一物种。总体而言，该染料的方法提供了一种鉴定个体果蝇 ，它等效或比需要的CO 2麻醉方法更好的简单和廉价的非侵入性的方法。它很可能是这种方法会在一系列物种的工作。

在过去的几十年中有越来越多的兴趣在男性的选择和竞争性如何影响之间的进化1,2。在交配行为的实验已经起到了开发和测试性选择3,4理论具有重要作用。特别是，使用研究属果蝇的物种，一直对性选择和行为的理解作出了贡献。然而，调查是否常用的技术可能会人为偏差标准的交配实验5,6的结果是很重要的。 麻醉通常用于处理和鉴定在实验7。例如，苍蝇通常收集交配前，或分类成使用二氧化碳（CO 2）的麻醉剂的基因型或实验性治疗。在实验中，其中两个或两个以上的个体需要加以区分，通常的做法是，以anaesthetise的FLIES和翼关闭的夹子部分，以确定每个单独的或治疗组5,8。它是非常重要的，但是，要理解的CO 2处理将如何影响行为。 二氧化碳麻醉的效果已经研究了果蝇中男性接触CO 2显著需要较长的时间进行交配和总体拥有较低的交配成功率比非麻醉男性或男性用挨冻5麻醉。观察到这种效果既当麻醉施用在实验当天以及当苍蝇给予一天恢复。然而，这项研究在一个单一的男性被提交给每个女5只检查试验是有限的。更现实的情况是女性遇到多个雄性9,10，让男性，这可能让男性健身因麻醉更微妙的损失检测之间的竞争。使用二氧化碳麻醉，也可以恩发现，以减少成虫产卵量D.与长寿果蝇当它们不久羽化后露出，如当收集的处女蝇11是常见的。 另一种为CO 2麻醉喂养它们的食物有色染料4,6,10,12,13标记苍蝇。该染料进入飞的肠和可见通过腹部，使有色苍蝇加以区别从无色蝇，或从苍蝇标有不同的颜色。方法的不同之处是如何可以适用:被直接添加到食物12中，通过染色的补充酵母膏6，或经由暴露于一种新型染食品衬底13。这些标记技术出现，以显示对交配性能4,6没有影响。然而，一纸直接检查一样食用色素的成人D.影响果蝇发现了一个强烈的减少寿命14。以前的工作也集中ALMOST完全D.果蝇，既涉及到的CO 2麻醉5,11和食用色素14的方法的效果。目前，很少有关于二氧化碳麻醉或使用肠道着色是如何影响其他果蝇的交配行为。 下面的研究评估二氧化碳麻醉对3种果蝇（黑腹果蝇，D. pseudoobscura和D. subobscura）的交配行为的影响。收集苍蝇对CO 2的效果进行了检查在单和两名男交配试验。 的 CO 2的效果也已发现，以改变在D.果蝇 5和暴露于CO 2和交配之间，以便不同的延迟时间进行了试验。另一种标记方法麻醉和机翼剪裁:使用食品染料染色的苍蝇也评估。

A Method to Test the Effect of Environmental Cues on Mating Behavior in Drosophila melanogaster

An individual's sexual drive is influenced by genotype, experience and environmental conditions. How these factors interact to modulate sexual behaviors remains poorly understood. In Drosophila melanogaster, environmental cues, such as food availability, affect mating activity offering a tractable system to investigate the mechanisms modulating sexual behavior. In D. melanogaster, environmental cues are often sensed via the chemosensory gustatory and olfactory systems. Here, we present a method to test the effect of environmental chemical cues on mating behavior. The assay consists of a small mating arena containing food medium and a mating couple. The mating frequency for each couple is continuously monitored for 24 h. Here we present the applicability of this assay to test environmental compounds from an external source through a pressurized air system as well as manipulation of the environmental components directly in the mating arena. The use of a pressurized air system is especially useful to test the effect of very volatile compounds, while manipulating components directly in the mating arena can be of value to ascertain a compound's presence. This assay can be adapted to answer questions about the influence of genetic and environmental cues on mating behavior and fecundity as well as other male and female reproductive behaviors.

Methods to Assay Drosophila Behavior

Drosophila melanogaster, the fruit fly, has been used to study molecular mechanisms of a wide range of human diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and various neurological diseases1. We have optimized simple and robust behavioral assays for determining larval locomotion, adult climbing ability (RING assay), and courtship behaviors of Drosophila. These behavioral assays are widely applicable for studying the role of genetic and environmental factors on fly behavior. Larval crawling ability can be reliably used for determining early stage changes in the crawling abilities of Drosophila larvae and also for examining effect of drugs or human disease genes (in transgenic flies) on their locomotion. The larval crawling assay becomes more applicable if expression or abolition of a gene causes lethality in pupal or adult stages, as these flies do not survive to adulthood where they otherwise could be assessed. This basic assay can also be used in conjunction with bright light or stress to examine additional behavioral responses in Drosophila larvae. Courtship behavior has been widely used to investigate genetic basis of sexual behavior, and can also be used to examine activity and coordination, as well as learning and memory. Drosophila courtship behavior involves the exchange of various sensory stimuli including visual, auditory, and chemosensory signals between males and females that lead to a complex series of well characterized motor behaviors culminating in successful copulation. Traditional adult climbing assays (negative geotaxis) are tedious, labor intensive, and time consuming, with significant variation between different trials2-4. The rapid iterative negative geotaxis (RING) assay5 has many advantages over more widely employed protocols, providing a reproducible, sensitive, and high throughput approach to quantify adult locomotor and negative geotaxis behaviors. In the RING assay, several genotypes or drug treatments can be tested simultaneously using large number of animals, with the high-throughput approach making it more amenable for screening experiments.

A Single-fly Assay for Foraging Behavior in Drosophila

For many animals, hunger promotes changes in the olfactory system in a manner that facilitates the search for appropriate food sources. In this video article, we describe an automated assay to measure the effect of hunger or satiety on olfactory dependent food search behavior in the adult fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. In a light-tight box illuminated by red light that is invisible to fruit flies, a camera linked to custom data acquisition software monitors the position of six flies simultaneously. Each fly is confined to walk in individual arenas containing a food odor at the center. The testing arenas rest on a porous floor that functions to prevent odor accumulation. Latency to locate the odor source, a metric that reflects olfactory sensitivity under different physiological states, is determined by software analysis. Here, we discuss the critical mechanics of running this behavioral paradigm and cover specific issues regarding fly loading, odor contamination, assay temperature, data quality, and statistical analysis.

An Adjustable High-Definition Imaging System for Behavioral Studies of Drosophila Adults

Drosophila melanogaster is a very powerful model in biological research, but a bad model for photography or videography. This paper describes a simple but effective method to observe and document the behavior or morphology of flies. Flies were placed in a translucent observation chamber c.a. &#216;15 x 5mm (no food inside) or &#216;15 x 12 mm (with an 8 mm-high piece of food inside). After covering with an ultraviolet (UV)/clear filter with high light transmittance, the chamber was placed under a 5-50x zoom stereo microscope, and mini light-emitting diode (LED) video lights were placed on both sides of the microscope to illuminate the chamber to obtain uniform, soft, bright, and nearly shadow-free light. Then, a compact digital camera with 3-5x optical zoom, which can record 1080 P high-definition or higher resolution video (at a frame rate of &#8805;30 fps), was connected to the eyepiece of microscope through a bracket, and photographs or videos were taken through the eyepiece. By adjusting the zoom knob of the zoom stereo microscope, it was very easy to track the flies and take panoramic or detailed close-up images as needed, while the camera recorded everything under the microscope. Because the flies can stay at any position in the chamber, they can be observed and recorded from all directions. The photographs or videos taken are of good image quality. This method can be used both for scientific research and teaching.

Straightforward Assay for Quantification of Social Avoidance in Drosophila melanogaster

Drosophila melanogaster is an emerging model to study different aspects of social interactions. For example, flies avoid areas previously occupied by stressed conspecifics due to an odorant released during stress known as the Drosophila stress odorant (dSO). Through the use of the T-maze apparatus, one can quantify the avoidance of the dSO by responder flies in a very affordable and robust assay. Conditions necessary to obtain a strong performance are presented here. A stressful experience is necessary for the flies to emit dSO, as well as enough emitter flies to cause a robust avoidance response to the presence of dSO. Genetic background, but not their group size, strongly altered the avoidance of the dSO by the responder flies. Canton-S and Elwood display a higher performance in avoiding the dSO than Oregon and Samarkand strains. This behavioral assay will allow identification of mechanisms underlying this social behavior, and the assessment of the influence of genes and environmental conditions on both emission and avoidance of the dSO. Such an assay can be included in batteries of simple diagnostic tests used to identify social deficiencies of mutants or environmental conditions of interest.

A Behavioral Assay for Mechanosensation of MARCM-based Clones in Drosophila melanogaster

Because of the structural and functional homology to the hair cells of the mammalian inner ear, the neurons that innervate the Drosophila external sense organs provide an excellent model system for the study of mechanosensation. This protocol describes a simple touch behavior in fruit flies which can be used to identify mutations that interfere with mechanosensation. The tactile stimulation of a macrochaete bristle on the thorax of flies elicits a grooming reflex from either the first or third leg. Mutations that interfere with mechanotransduction (such as NOMPC), or with other aspects of the reflex arc, can inhibit the grooming response. A traditional screen of adult behaviors would have missed mutants that have essential roles during development. Instead, this protocol combines the touch screen with mosaic analysis with a repressible cell marker (MARCM) to allow for only limited regions of homozygous mutant cells to be generated and marked by the expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP). By testing MARCM clones for abnormal behavioral responses, it is possible to screen a collection of lethal p-element mutations to search for new genes involved in mechanosensation that would have been missed by more traditional methods.

A Behavioral Assay for Mechanosensation of MARCM-based Clones in Drosophila melanogaster

In order to identify novel mutations affecting mechanosensation, we designed an assay that measures the behavioral response to tactile stimulation of fly bristles in mutant clones generated by the MARCM method. The combination of techniques allows for the identification of mechanosensitive mutations that would otherwise be lethal.

Quantification of Drosophila Grooming Behavior

Drosophila grooming behavior is a complex multi-step locomotor program that requires coordinated movement of both forelegs and hindlegs. Here we present a grooming assay protocol and novel chamber design that is cost-efficient and scalable for either small or large-scale studies of Drosophila grooming. Flies are dusted all over their body with Brilliant Yellow dye and given time to remove the dye from their bodies within the chamber. Flies are then deposited in a set volume of ethanol to solubilize the dye. The relative spectral absorbance of dye-ethanol samples for groomed versus ungroomed animals are measured and recorded. The protocol yields quantitative data of dye accumulation for individual flies, which can be easily averaged and compared across samples. This allows experimental designs to easily evaluate grooming ability for mutant animal studies or circuit manipulations. This efficient procedure is both versatile and scalable. We show work-flow of the protocol and comparative data between WT animals and mutant animals for the Drosophila type I Dopamine Receptor (DopR).

This protocol describes a scalable individual grooming assay technique in Drosophila that yields robust, quantitative data to measure grooming behavior. The method is based on comparing the difference in dye accumulation on the bodies of un-groomed versus groomed animals over a set period of time.

Measuring and Altering Mating Drive in Male Drosophila melanogaster

Despite decades of investigation, the neuronal and molecular bases of motivational states remain mysterious. We have recently developed a novel, reductionist, and scalable system for in-depth investigation of motivation using the mating drive of male Drosophila&#160;melanogaster (Drosophila), the methods for which we detail here. The behavioral paradigm centers on the finding that male mating drive decreases alongside fertility over the course of repeated copulations and recovers over ~3 d. In this system, the powerful neurogenetic tools available in the fly converge with the genetic accessibility and putative wiring diagram available for sexual behavior. This convergence allows rapid isolation and interrogation of small neuronal populations with specific motivational functions. Here we detail the design and execution of the satiety assay that is used to measure and alter courtship motivation in the male fly. Using this assay, we also demonstrate that low male mating drive can be overcome by stimulating dopaminergic neurons. The satiety assay is simple, affordable, and robust to influences of genetic background. We expect the satiety assay to generate many new insights into the neurobiology of motivational states.

Tracking Drosophila Larval Behavior in Response to Optogenetic Stimulation of Olfactory Neurons

The ability of insects to navigate toward odor sources is based on the activities of their first-order olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). While a considerable amount of information has been generated regarding ORN responses to odorants, the role of specific ORNs in driving behavioral responses remains poorly understood. Complications in behavior analyses arise due to different volatilities of odorants that activate individual ORNs, multiple ORNs activated by single odorants, and the difficulty in replicating naturally observed temporal variations in olfactory stimuli using conventional odor-delivery methods in the laboratory. Here, we describe a protocol that analyzes Drosophila larval behavior in response to simultaneous optogenetic stimulation of its ORNs. The optogenetic technology used here allows for specificity of ORN activation and precise control of temporal patterns of ORN activation. Corresponding larval movement is tracked, digitally recorded, and analyzed using custom written software. By replacing odor stimuli with light stimuli, this method allows for a more precise control of individual ORN activation in order to study its impact on larval behavior. Our method could be further extended to study the impact of second-order projection neurons (PNs) as well as local neurons (LNs) on larval behavior. This method will thus enable a comprehensive dissection of olfactory circuit function and complement studies on how olfactory neuron activities translate in to behavior responses.

Behavioral Assays for Optogenetic Manipulation of Neural Circuits in Drosophila melanogaster

Optogenetics has become a fundamental technique in neuroscience, enabling precise control of neuronal activity through light stimulation. This study introduces easy-to-implement setups for applying optogenetic methods in Drosophila melanogaster. Two optogenetic tools, CsChrimson, a red-light-activated cation channel, and GtACR2, a blue-light-activated anion channel, were employed in four experimental approaches. Three of these approaches involve single-fly experiments: (1) a blue-light optogenetic thermotactic positional preference assay targeting temperature-sensitive heating cells, (2) a red-light optogenetic positional preference assay activating bitter sensing neurons, and (3) a proboscis extension response assay activating the sweet-sensing neurons. The fourth approach (4) is a fly maze setup to assess avoidance behaviors using multiple flies. The ability to manipulate neural activity temporally and spatially offers powerful insights into sensory processing and decision-making, underscoring the potential of optogenetics to advance our knowledge of neural function. These methods provide an accessible and robust framework for future research in neuroscience to enhance the understanding of specific neural pathways and their behavioral outcomes.

This paper presents methods for optogenetic manipulation in Drosophila melanogaster, utilizing CsChrimson and GtACR2 to activate and silence specific neurons. Four experiments are described to utilize optogenetics to explore thermotactic and gustatory behaviors, providing insights into the underlying neural mechanisms governing these processes.
