[Adaptive value of genes controlling the level of biogenic amines in Drosophila].
The effects of mutations that change the level of biogenic amines (octopamine and dopamine) on stress-reactivity and fitness of Drosophila imagoes are considered. It has been shown that (1) the biogenic amines represent an important but not triggering factor of the development of stress reaction; (2) under normal conditions, reproduction is regulated by genes that control dopamine metabolic pathways (indirectly via regulation of the juvenile hormone level). Under unfavorable conditions, reproduction is regulated by genes that control octopamine metabolism; (3) heat-stress adaptation depends on expression of genes controlling the background level of dopamine.
