Effects of Food Availability Cycles on Phase and Period of Activity-rest Rhythm in Drosophila melanogaster

Abstract: Foraging and feeding are indispensable for survival and their timing depends not only on the metabolic state of the animal but also on the availability of food resources in their environment. Since both these aspects are subject to change over time, these behaviors exhibit rhythmicity in occurrence. As the locomotor activity of an organism is related to its disposition to acquire food, and peak feeding in fruit flies has been shown to occur at a particular time of the day, we asked if cyclic food availability … Show more

“…Honey bees (A. mellifera) have been shown to entrain to restricted feeding schedules and exhibit phase differences in expression of cryptochrome2 (cry2) and period (per) with timerestricted foraging (8,9). By contrast, studies in D. melanogaster show that restricted food availability is not able to entrain activity cycles (10,11). Food anticipation has also been welldocumented in fish.…”

“…While the waveform of locomotor activity is considered a reasonably close reflection of the state of the underlying circadian machinery, factors such as startle responses or timing of food availability are also known to influence it [1][2][3]. Thus, it is crucial to understand clock and non-clock factors regulating activity waveform.…”

“…Among all the behavioural rhythms exhibited by metazoans, daily rhythmicity in locomotion has garnered significant interest due to its apparent utility in providing insights into waveform regulation. While the waveform of locomotor activity is considered a reasonably close reflection of the state of the underlying circadian machinery, factors such as startle responses or timing of food availability are also known to influence it [13]. Thus, it is crucial to understand clock and non-clock factors regulating activity waveform.…”
