Drosophila melanogaster is commonly abbreviated as D. melanogaster.
Drosophila are the most commonly used insects to study genetic traits and chromosome mapping.
The males are the smaller of the two sexes.
A female, once fertilized, may lay 30 to 50 eggs per day throughout her lifetime.
Fruit flies are very prolific insects. They live for several weeks and just eat and breed. What a life (albeit a short one).
Assuming a 50% male to female ratio, and a female laying 500 or more eggs in her lifetime, 30 days of unchecked fruit fly population could create, well, one huge number of fruit flies.
