私の最初の論文がEvolution & Development誌に掲載されました！
性的二型を持つ系統と持たない系統が同種内に存在するナミテントウで、性差を生む遺伝的基盤とその進化を調査しました。オープンアクセスです！

Here is a very detailed examination on how pigmentation in the cuticle of a butterfly wing scale changes the density and refractive index of chitin and, thus, also alters structural color. https://t.co/6ZUi87y0PG

For those interested in the evolution of phenotypic plasticity - Shen Tian et al. found that a novel bit of DNA - a Hox gene promoter in the genome of satyrid butterflies - boosts plasticity in the size of their eyespots in response to temperature.

Very happy to share my new paper, and probably my last butterfly paper, from Science Advances@ScienceAdvances! We have addressed the origin of butterfly larva's proleg! Huge congrats to the authors, and anonymous reviewers for helpful comments!

We have published new paper about how Ubx regulates differences between fore and hindwing morphology, especially eyespot number. And we discussed how eyespot number have evolved in nymphalid butterflies!
