Our jewel beetle paper is now out in its final finished format! We looked at how the jewel beetle evolved its complex UV, blue, green and orange sensitivity. https://t.co/NW9cvqmWsE
https://t.co/sb6RYPfhpe Excited to share our new paper out for advanced access in @MolBioEvol with Jorge Blanco, Trevor Wardill @trevorwardill and Nathan Lord @thelordlab. We used Drosophila expression to explore the function of opsin duplications in the colourful jewel beetles.
We are excited to announce that @CIBIO_InBIO will host the 2022 Trends in Biodiversity and Evolution meeting: The Biology of Colour (#TiBE2022). We invite all colleagues working on this topic to join us in December 5-7 in Portugal. Follow the thread 🧵for more details:
