Genesee Scientific the world leader in innovation for and supply to the "Drosophila" (fruit fly) research community. "Drosophila" are widely used as a model organism in the field of genetics. Genesee Scientific has been awarded three patents by the United States Patent and Trademark Office for its revolutionary "Drosophila" vial racking system (patent numbers D673,296 S; 8,136,679 B2; and 8,430,251 B2). This "Drosophila" vial racking system significantly decreases time spent racking vials and is more environmentally friendly compared to traditional vial packaging configurations. Genesee Scientific has also developed the first atlas of "Drosophila" phenotypic markers available on mobile devices. Genesee the "Drosophila"
