Courtship-stimulating volatile compounds from normal and mutant Drosophila
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Volatile compounds from Drosophila melanogaster males and females dramatically affect male courtship behaviour. These substances, which have been extracted from flies of different ages and genotypes, have been analysed by gas chromatography (GC) and in behavioural assays. Extracts from virgin females and males have different gas chromatographic profiles, which may reflect the fact that extract from virgin females stimulates high levels of courtship between males over short distances, while extract from mature wild-type males does not affect sexual behaviour. However, volatile compounds from very young males or males expressing the fruitless ( fru ) mutation do stimulate courtship between males, and chromatographic profiles of young male and fru male extracts differ from the GC profile of extracts from mature wild-type males.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
