Scientists probe DNA of 'Evolution Canyon' fruit flies, find drivers of change




Scientists have long puzzled over the genetic differences between fruit flies that live hardly a puddle jump apart in a natural environment known as “Evolution Canyon” in Mount Carmel, Israel. Now, an international team of researchers led by scientists with the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute at Virginia Tech has peered into the DNA of these closely related flies to discover how these animals have been able to adapt and survive in such close, but extremely different, ecologies.
