Jlab Export is a leading Fruit fly Genetics Kit Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Fruit fly Genetics Kit (code EL-GAIE-6886) is a classroom genetics kit that teaches basic Drosophila melanogaster genetics without live flies: students perform crosses with snap-apart plastic pieces printed with fly features to simulate sex determination, single- and double-factor inheritance, sex linkage, and dominance and recessiveness. A Teacher’s Guide and student instruction sheet are included. JLab (Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, Ambala, India) supplies it to schools, colleges and dealers.

What Is the Fruit Fly Genetics Kit Used For?
The fruit fly is the classic organism of genetics: Thomas Hunt Morgan used it to show that genes sit on chromosomes and to discover sex-linked inheritance. Breeding real flies, however, means keeping cultures, anaesthetising flies and waiting for each generation. With this kit students choose parent pieces, work out the gametes and assemble the offspring, so crosses can be worked through in class without waiting for generations to breed. They can test single-factor (monohybrid) crosses against the expected 3:1 ratio in the second generation, double-factor (dihybrid) crosses against 9:3:3:1, see how dominant and recessive traits appear, follow the X and Y chromosomes that determine sex (females XX, males XY), and track a sex-linked trait through the generations.
The kit fits the class 12 biology chapter on principles of inheritance and variation, which covers Mendel’s crosses, sex determination, linkage and Morgan’s fruit fly work, and it suits introductory genetics in college. As a genetics experiment kit it can also be used for revision. Keep the snap-apart pieces in labelled bags by fly type so the set stays complete for the next class.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Number of kits — the minimum order is 10 kits; check the Teacher’s Guide for how pieces are shared across a class.
- Sheet count — the listing reads “15 sheets each”; confirm the exact sheet and piece count per kit with your quotation.
- Related genetics activities — probability, blood-group and natural-selection activities can go on the same enquiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this kit use live fruit flies?
No. Students work with plastic pieces printed with fruit fly features, so there are no cultures to maintain and no flies to anaesthetise or count under a microscope.
Which genetics topics can students simulate?
Sex determination, single-factor and double-factor inheritance, sex linkage, and dominance and recessiveness, all using crosses between the printed fly pieces.
What is included in the kit?
Snap-apart sheets of plastic pieces showing male and female flies and 4 types of fruit flies (listed as 15 sheets each), plus a Teacher’s Guide and a student instruction sheet.
Why use fruit flies to teach inheritance?
Drosophila has easily seen traits, few chromosomes and a short life cycle, which is why it became the standard organism for early genetics research. The printed pieces keep those traits visible without the practical demands of live flies.
