Recent studies have shown that male fruit flies use close-range olfactory cues to assess the status of potential mating partners. The presence of a volatile, male-derived pheromone can suppress the default male behavioral state of courting females.
最近的研究表明,雄性果蝇利用近距离嗅觉线索来评估潜在配偶的状态。一种挥发性的、源自雄性的信息素的存在可以抑制雄性向雌性求爱的默认行为状态。
