The fly Drosophila yakuba has lost an ancestral component of the male courtship song: this is due to ontogenetic death of effector neurons in the ventral nerve cord, a result of the D.yakuba sex-determining gene dsx producing a male isoform, dsxM, with cell-death-promoting activity similar to that of the female isoform, dsxF, in D.melanogaster.
