- Fireflies are the best-known insects that produce light.[...]Many fireflies use their light to communicate, particularly at mating time when males and females have to get together.
- The luciferins are different in different species and today both the luciferin and luciferase in the firefly are available in the crystalline form.
- Various other luciferase genes, especially the firefly luciferase gene, are also used for the study of gene regulation.[...]The classic use of bioluminescence, however, is the use of a luciferin-luciferase mixture from fireflies as an assay for ATP.
