Dynamics of learning in the context of courtship in Drosophila persimilis and D. pseudoobscura

Recent data indicating that male fruit flies adaptively reduce courtship of heterospecific females, which typically reject them, suggest that learning could contribute to reduced levels of matings between individuals from diverging populations with partial premating isolation. To further examine the robustness of learning in the context of courtship in fruit flies, I wished to broaden […]
