Description

Wild-caught flies are used to establish laboratory breeding lines maintained under standardized conditions. Lines are kept in multiple vials with controlled temperature, lighting, and nutrition to preserve genetic diversity for behavioral experiments.

Typical Equipment

  • malt medium
  • live yeast
  • multiple vials
  • CO2 anesthesia equipment

Output Measurements

  • breeding populations
  • virgin flies for experiments
