The paper performs a GWAS on bristle number variation in Drosophila melanogaster, identifying significant genomic regions and candidate genes associated with abdominal and sternopleural bristle numbers.

This paper shows that low statistical power in pool-seq GWAS can create the illusion of polygenicity by masking simple genetic architectures through noise.

The paper uses extreme QTL mapping in Drosophila to identify genetic loci associated with zinc toxicity resistance, finding seven QTL and ten genes with genotype-by-treatment effects.

This study uses multi-timepoint RNA sequencing in Drosophila melanogaster to identify age-related gene expression changes, revealing non-linear patterns missed by two-timepoint comparisons.
