Sex determination gene transformer regulates the male-female difference in Drosophila fat storage via the adipokinetic hormone pathway
Sex differences in whole-body fat storage exist in many species. For example, Drosophila females store more fat than males. Yet, the mechanisms underlying this sex difference in fat storage remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify a key role for sex determination gene transformer (tra) in r...
