#Drosophila #Advent Day16: In #Scaptomyza flava we meet our first fly with an unexpected larval substrate: https://www.leafmines.co.uk/html/Diptera/S.flava.htm . One of several leaf-miners in the genus, S. flava is a specialist on soft #Brassicaceae, where it can be a pest https://doi.org/10.30843/nzpp.2006.59.4546 . Its evolution is the subject of some phenomenal work on the evolution of herbivory https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1424656112 , providing a great intersection with one of the other great model organisms, #Arabidopsis https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-294X.2010.04901.x
