Mutants of Drosophila Melanogaster's ABC Transporter, White, Have Altered Cholesterol-Mediated Acquisition of Memory that is Moderated with 5-HT
Since the discovery of Drosophila melanogaster’s white gene over 100 years ago, white has become an important genetic tool in Drosophila research. The distinct white-eyed phenotype has allowed researchers to do seminal work on heredity, gene regulation, and whole organism studies with transgenic …

Derepression of heterochromatin inactivation by induction of a nearby promoter in Drosophila melanogaster
… (PEV) describes the compaction of a euchromatic gene placed next to a region of heterochromatin. This compaction into heterochromatin in some instances results in a mosaic phenotype in Drosophila melanogaster. Since its discovery in the 1930's the phenomenon of PEV has been extensively analyzed …
