The repleta species group contains over 100 species, all of which are native to the Americas. In addition to being appropriately positioned for comparative bioinformatics, the repleta group provides unique biological aspects for which a genome sequence will facilitate more detailed studies. Three species in particular, D. hydei, D. buzzatii, and D. mojavensis, have been used as genetic and evolutionary model systems. D. mojavensis is specific as it is highly specialized on its host plants and is in the process of diversification. Go to NCBI Taxonomy (7230) Encyclopedia of life Wikipedia Projects: e!
