雄性果蝇调节求偶歌曲期间产生的脉冲间隔。 这些歌曲周期因时钟基因周期的突变而改变，表现出促进交配的物种特异性变异。 我们在种系转化实验中使用了来自果蝇和模拟果蝇的嵌合期基因构建体，将其鸣叫节奏差异的遗传控制映射到该基因内的一小段氨基酸编码信息。
Drosophila males modulate the interpulse intervals produced during their courtship songs. These song cycles, which are altered by mutations in the clock gene period, exhibit a species-specific variation that facilitates mating. We have used chimeric period gene constructs from Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans in germline transformation experiments to map the genetic control of their song rhythm difference to a small segment of the amino acid encoding information within this gene.
