Bassetto et al. dismissed previous studies claiming Drosophila couldn't detect magnetic fields, but Bae et al. independently replicated these responses, showcasing fly magnetic geotactic abilities.
Reanalysis of data from geotaxis experiments reveals that Drosophila can detect magnetic fields, contrary to previous claims, and can negotiate magnetic paradigms successfully.
Comparison of responses to blue light (BL) and red light (RL) showed significant differences in geotactic abilities, with clear enhancements under BL conditions, contradicting the prior notion of flies falling into distinct categories.
