    fruitless tunes functional flexibility of courtship circuitry during development

    Jie Chen, Sihui Jin ... Yufeng Pan
    The courtship master gene fruitless tunes functional flexibility of courtship circuitry during development instead of switching on its function as conventionally viewed.

    Central neural circuitry mediating courtship song perception in male Drosophila

    Chuan Zhou, Romain Franconville ... Bruce S Baker
    Anatomical, behavioral and physiological evidence suggests that the aPN1-vPN1-pC1 pathway serves as a labeled line for the processing and transformation of courtship song in male Drosophila.

    Female mice ultrasonically interact with males during courtship displays

    Joshua P Neunuebel, Adam L Taylor ... SE Roian Egnor
    A microphone array enables the vocal contribution of each socially interacting individual to be quantified, and reveals that vocalizations are exchanged between the sexes during mouse courtship.

    Neuropeptide F regulates courtship in Drosophila through a male-specific neuronal circuit

    Weiwei Liu, Anindya Ganguly ... Craig Montell
    Functional dissection of a cluster of male-specific neurons in Drosophila reveals a neuronal circuit regulating male courtship in accordance with the internal drive state.

    Sex-determining genes distinctly regulate courtship capability and target preference via sexually dimorphic neurons

    Kenichi Ishii, Margot Wohl ... Kenta Asahina
    Sex-specific characteristics of the fruit fly courtship behavior are not specified by a single binary switch, but as a combination of traits that are modularly specified by separable genetic switches.

    Modulation of sleep-courtship balance by nutritional status in Drosophila

    José M Duhart, Victoria Baccini ... Kyunghee Koh
    The sleep-courtship balance in Drosophila males is modulated by yeast/protein availability, and dopaminergic neurons projecting to the protocerebral bridge act downstream of courtship-regulating neurons for male sleep regulation.

    Persistent activity in a recurrent circuit underlies courtship memory in Drosophila

    Xiaoliang Zhao, Daniela Lenek ... Krystyna Keleman
    Persistent activity of dopaminergic neurons in a mushroom recurrent circuit lays the foundation for courtship memory in Drosophila.
    1. Neuroscience

    Courtship behaviour reveals temporal regularity is a critical social cue in mouse communication

    Catherine Perrodin, Colombine Verzat, Daniel Bendor
    A behavioural paradigm demonstrates that during courtship song preference by female mice relies on the temporal regularity of the male's production of song syllables.

    Physiological constraint on acrobatic courtship behavior underlies rapid sympatric speciation in bearded manakins

    Meredith C Miles, Franz Goller, Matthew J Fuxjager
    Skeletal muscle performance sets the course of rapid speciation by defining the evolutionary trajectory of reproductive behavior.

    Divergent sensory investment mirrors potential speciation via niche partitioning across Drosophila

    Ian W Keesey, Veit Grabe ... Bill S Hansson
    Phototaxis and courtship behavioral preferences reflect strong correlation with differences in olfactory and visual nervous system investment across five monophyletic Drosophila species, and could help explain their speciation events.
