Selection for long and short sleep duration in Drosophila melanogaster reveals the complex genetic network underlying natural variation in sleep

Why do some individuals need more sleep than others? Forward mutagenesis screens in flies using engineered mutations have established a clear genetic component to sleep duration, revealing mutants that convey very long or short sleep. Whether such extreme long or short sleep could exist in natural p...
