A small cohort of FRU(M) and Engrailed-expressing neurons mediate successful copulation in Drosophila melanogaster

BACKGROUND: In Drosophila, male flies require the expression of the male-specific Fruitless protein (FRU(M)) within the developing pupal and adult nervous system in order to produce male courtship and copulation behaviors. Recent evidence has shown that specific subsets of FRU(M) neurons are necessa...
