The two-week life cycle and sequenced genome make, FTP, what insect also called the fruit fly a great model organism?
This organism features class II transposons called P elements, which cause a form of temperature-dependent sterility in its offspring called hybrid dysgenesis. Its blastoderm stage is a syncytium, allowing rapid uptake of injected DNA. Its salivary glands have giant polytene chromosomes formed from repeated endoreplication. Common mutations in this organism include antennapedia, though it is most associated with sepia eyes or vestigial wings.
