The effects of sleep disruption, sex, and mating status on susceptibility to fungal (Metarhizium anisopliae) infections in Drosophila melanogaster

Mintong Nan, Raymond J. St. Leger

This study investigates how sleep, sex, and mating status affect susceptibility to fungal infection in Drosophila, finding that sleep increases post-infection and that sex and mating status influence disease resistance.

Latitudinal clines in climate and sleep patterns shape disease outcomes in Drosophila melanogaster infected by Metarhizium anisopliae

Mintong Nan, Jonathan B. Wang, Michail Siokis, Raymond J. St. Leger

This study examines how latitudinal clines in climate and sleep patterns affect disease resistance in Drosophila melanogaster infected by Metarhizium anisopliae, finding correlations with temperature, humidity, and sleep duration.
