This CD-ROM adaptation of the film, "Fly Cycle: The Lives of a Fly, Drosophila melanogaste" includes QuickTime movies, depicting details on the biology and life cycle of Drosophial, courting and mating, embryonic development, larval growth, metamorphosis and a gallery of mutants used in research.
This CD-ROM adaptation of the film, "Fly Cycle: The Lives of a Fly, Drosophila melanogaste" is formatted for Macintosh and Windows processors. It includes 40 minutes of QuickTime movies, depicting details on the biology and life cycle of Drosophial, adult courting and mating, embryonic development, larval growth, imaginal discs and salivary glands, metamorphosis and a gallery of mutants used in research. The CD-ROM has been designed to be used at a number of educational levels. At introductory undergraduate levels, it can acquaint students with the fruit fly life cycle and a number of the mutants used in introductory courses. For more advanced undergraduates in developmental biology and genetics courses, and for graduate students beginning their research on Drosophila, the CD-ROM introduces the many specifics they will need to know, and techniques for examining the organism in detail. Included on the CD ROM is the text to an accompanying 40 page booklet that can be used on the computer, with convenient text hyperlinks, or printed out.
The booklet presents information on each segment of the CD-ROM, a "getting started" section for those who want to raise fruit flies, a list of suppliers, an annotated selected bibliography and a glossary.
