Starvation response in Drosophila score: 100 | D. melanogaster |   RNA Expression A developmental time course of Drosophila development using 40 After egg lay (AEL) as a baseline was compared to 12 hour time points upto 100 hr AEL. Adult Drosophila were starved for 24 or 48 hours or give only sucrose for only 24 or 48 hours were compared to flies given a normal diet of yeast.
