In Drosophila sechellia, females accept males that sing heterospecific songs less than those that do not sing, whereas in D. melanogaster and D. simulans, females accept males that sing heterospecific song more than those that do not sing. Here we studied the sexual isolation of D. sechellia and its siblings using interspecific hybrids to reveal the mechanisms underlying female mate recognition. The females of hybrids mated more with winged males of the parent species than with wingless ones, suggesting that the discrimination against heterospecific songs by D. sechellia females is recessive. Female preference for courtship songs seems to be inherited additively or semidominantly. In addition, we examined female receptivity without the stimuli of courtship songs by comparing the mating frequencies between the crosses using wingless males and found that it is also inherited additively or semidominantly.
