How Blue Light Exposure Can Impact Fruit Flies
A recent study published in Nature Communications found that blue light exposure can have a significant effect on the reproductive behaviors of fruit flies. Researchers studied the effect of blue light exposure on the courtship behavior of male and female fruit flies, and found that male flies exposed to blue light were less likely to pursue females and were also slower to initiate courtship. Female flies exposed to blue light also showed a decrease in courtship behaviors. The decreased courtship behaviors observed in the study suggest that blue light can have a negative impact on the reproductive behaviors of fruit flies.
