Interaction of light regimes and circadian clocks modulate timing of pre-adult developmental events in Drosophila

Abstract: BackgroundCircadian clocks have been postulated to regulate development time in several species of insects including fruit flies Drosophila melanogaster. Previously we have reported that selection for faster pre-adult development reduces development time (by ~19 h or ~11%) and clock period (by ~0.5 h), suggesting a role of circadian clocks in the regulation of development time in D. melanogaster. We reasoned that these faster developing flies could serve as a model to study stage-specific interaction of circad… Show more

“…In many insects, including Drosophila, endogeneous circadian clocks influence the timing of developmental hallmarks (e.g., pupation, eclosion; Kyriacou et al 1990). Circadian rhythms result in "gated" periods of development, which can be entrained by diurnal variation in photoperiod to further increase the synchronicity of discrete developmental events (e.g., pupation, eclosion; Ashmore andSehgal 2003, Nijhout et al 2010;Yadav et al 2014). Flies can develop fastest in constant light, absent of photoperiodic entrainment (Paranjpe et al 2005).…”
