黑腹果蝇的雄性-雌性求偶行为部分是由化学信号介导的。正常和遗传嗅觉缺陷（olfD）苍蝇的求偶行为的比较有力地支持了这一假设，并导致以下推论的重要性，在求偶过程中的化学交换。处女女性对男性求爱的反应是减缓并最终停止她们的动作，这似乎提高了交配的可能性; olfD女性在这种停止反应和对交配的接受性方面是有缺陷的。雄性可以通过处女雌性的空中暗示来刺激求爱，这种暗示在大约30英里的距离内都有效。5毫米。相比之下，化学求偶刺激线索未成熟的苍蝇几乎没有空气传播的功效，未成熟的男性似乎刺激求偶只有接触化学感受。嗅觉、视觉和听觉线索的求偶相互作用的遗传扰乱或去除（从而留下接触化学感受作为雄性-雌性相互作用的可能主要手段）导致虚拟行为不育。
Male-female courtship interactions in Drosophila melanogaster are mediated in part by chemical cues. A comparison of the courtship behaviors of normal and genetically olfaction-deficient (olfD) flies lends strong support to this hypothesis and leads to the following inferences regarding the importance of chemical interchange during courtship. Virgin females respond to male courtship by slowing and finally stopping their movements, which appears to enhance the probability of copulation; olfD females are defective in this stopping response and in their receptivity to mating. Males can be stimulated to court by airborne cues from virgin females which are effective over a distance of ca. 5 mm. By comparison, the chemical courtship-stimulating cues from immature flies have little airborne efficacy; immature males appear to stimulate courtship only by contact chemoreception. The genetic upset or removal from courtship interactions of olfactory, visual, and auditory cues (thus leaving contact chemoreception as the probable major means of male-female interaction) results in virtual behavioral sterility.
