conserved (Rubin 1988). Due to this similarity, the use of D. melanogaster has led to breakthroughs in the research of cancer, neurological diseases and various other diseases. For example, studying the development of photoreceptors in D. melanogaster eyes led to the identification of the Ras proto-oncogene pathway, which allowed researchers to gain a greater understanding of the signaling pathway and cellular process behind cancer (Tickoo and Russell 2002). Another example of the benefit of D. melanogaster
