No water, no mating: Connecting dots from behaviour to pathways

This data file contains mating assays data for the following parameters-copulations success, mating duration and mating latency, and water content. Four to five-day-old virgin Drosophila melanogaster flies were used for all the assays. Copulation success has been presented in number (number of pairs mated). Mating duration and mating latency are given in minutes and weight data is in milligrams.
