what I find quite interesting is that in this territory they are fighting while at the same time, in neighbouring territories they prefer to live "harmoniously"

Could you describe the setup for those that may appreciate replicating this. Mutant strain if any? Food? Etc...

Thanks for your interest!
I'd suggest going to pubmed . com, searching "Dierick HA" and looking up Dr. Dierick's most recent papers. He references all of the papers he considers important for his work. I assume you have access to journal articles, if not let me know.

What are they fighting for? Or did one spill the other's sugar solution

They fight for the territory. Perhaps the territory is important because this is their food, as well as where females lay eggs . . .

Thanks for your interest! We are at The Neurosciences Institute in San Diego, CA. If you want to see more videos, look up "Dierick HA" in pubmed. . .the paper is published in Nature Genetics under the title "Molecular analysis of flies selected for aggressive behavior."
