“…Although Drosophila melanogaster is classified as a solitary species, these flies aggregate at high densities to feed and they exhibit social entrainment, aggression, and collective behavior (Levine et al, 2002;Liu et al, 2011;Ramdya et al, 2015;Schneider et al, 2012;Veenema, 2009;Wang and Anderson, 2010). Studies using Drosophila have begun to define the molecular and neuronal mechanisms controlling social entrainment (Bloch et al, 2013;Fujii and Amrein, 2010;Fujii et al, 2007;Levine et al, 2002;Lone et al, 2016;Lone and Sharma, 2012). In particular, volatile pheromones, the olfactory system, and some clock neurons are involved.…”
