AB  - Courtship in Drosophila is influenced by a wide variety of genes, in that many 
      different kinds of pleiotropic mutations lead to defective courtship. This may 
      seem to be a truism, but the broad temporal and spatial expression of most of the 
      fly's "neuro genes" makes it difficult to exclude elements of such genes' actions 
      as materially underlying reproductive behavior. "Courtship genes" that seem to 
      play more particular roles were originally identified as sensory, learning, or 
      rhythm mutations; their reproductive abnormalities have been especially 
      informative for revealing components of male or female actions that might 
      otherwise have gone unnoticed. Further behavioral mutations seemed originally to 
      be courtship-specific, turned out not to have that property, and have led to a 
      broadened perspective on the nature and action of Drosophila's sex-determination 
      genes.
