New knowledge about a fungus that turns 60-80% of the flies in your home into zombies
University of Copenhagen - Faculty of ScienceHow can a fungus take over a fly's behavior? An international group of researchers with participation from the University of Copenhagen hopes to find out with the help of a new genetic map of a unique fungus that transforms 60-80 percent of the flies in your home into zombies. In the future, the fungus could become both an effective insect repellent and basis for new psychotropic drugs.How can a fungus take over a fly's behavior?

Fungus gnat entombed in a 40-million-year-old piece of amber is a rare gem
University of Copenhagen - Faculty of ScienceA Danish amber collector’s find upon a wild North Sea shore in the 1960’s has proved to be of great and surprising significance. After having thoroughly examining the roughly 40-million-year-old piece of amber, University of Copenhagen researchers have discovered it to contain the first fossil of a predatory fungus gnat belonging to a rare genus. The research contributes new knowledge about the distribution of the gnat species and about biodiversity across space and time.
