Drosophila flies choose a habitat based on volatiles

  • Yeast metabolism

– esters – higher alcohols – CO2 – ethanol

  • Yeasts are food
  • but, yeasts are vectored

  • 1. Do Drosophila species differ in

different parts of the vineyard and winery?

  • 2. Are Drosophila associated

with yeasts, and are these species different in the vineyard and winery?

  • 3. Are there any special

relationships between wine environment Drosophila and yeasts?

And now to France…

  • NGS profiling of yeast communities on

wild populations of Drosophila

  • Languedoc-Roussillon vineyards sampling
  • Attractiveness of yeast aromas to wild flies
  • Do Drosophila play a part in the ecology,

persistence and evolution of yeasts?
