Dark Fly

These guys kept a fly stock in the dark for 57 years!! Not exactly a Master’s project, if you have to wait for 57 years!! Now who thought 57 years ago that this could be and interesting and very important experiment?! And imagine if someone entered the room one day and turned the lights on by mistake!!

Now they published the genome sequence, and I am not convinced considering that next-generation sequencing is not good enough yet, and they compare the sequence to Oregon R. But the idea is crazy enough!!
