Fly Copulation. Credit: Philipsborn Research group 
Graphical abstract: During copulation, males transfer not only sperm, but also seminal fluid. The authors hypothesize: Specific components of the male accessory gland secondary cells - secondary cell products (SCPs) cause the female to start singing. Her singing in turn prompts the male to allocate his ejaculate differently, ultimately giving him a reproductive advantage over other males, by biasing the female to mate with the next male later.

Do your neighbours have a noisy love life? Consider yourself lucky that you are not a fruit fly! Anne von Philipsborn’s group has discovered that female fruit flies sing by pulsed wing vibrations while they are copulating.

The new study, published yesterday in Nature Communications, was led by experts in behavioural genetics and circuit neuroscience in Drosophila at DANDRITE. The researchers’ findings on Drosophila sexual behaviour are important for understanding the complexity of neurocircuitry and behavioural genetics. In this article, first author of the paper…

IT security: Important information for everyone working from home

The current corona situation means that record numbers of Danes will be working from home for a while. This makes us even more vulnerable to cyber criminals, and AU has already registered an increase in the number of phishing emails we receive. So please be careful when you work from home.

Chairman of the Carlsberg Foundation, Flemming Besenbacher, states: “COVID-19 is developing exponentially right now, so we are pleased that we have quickly been able to mobilise a collaboration between a number of the world’s leading researchers to contribute to solving the enormous challenges we are facing.”
