Clustered regularly spaced short palindrome repeats (CRISPR) structure family forms the
acquired immune system in bacteria and archaea. Recent advances in CRISPR/Cas …

Insects have an amazing variety of colors and patterns. It should be noted that pigments
and/or genes involved in body color formation are markedly different between insects and …

Population Genetics and Microevolutionary Theory Explore the fundamentals of the
biological implications of population genetic theory In the newly revised Second Edition of …

Butterfly wing patterns derive from a deeply conserved developmental ground plan yet are
diverse and evolve rapidly. It is poorly understood how gene regulatory architectures can …

Wnt signaling members are involved in the differentiation of cells associated with eyespot
and band color patterns on the wings of butterflies, but the identity and spatio-temporal …

Major changes in chromosome number and structure are linked to a series of evolutionary
phenomena, including intrinsic barriers to gene flow or suppression of recombination due to …

Little is known about the extent to which species use homologous regulatory architectures to
achieve phenotypic convergence. By characterizing chromatin accessibility and gene …

Natural selection leaves distinct signatures in the genome that can reveal the targets and
history of adaptive evolution. By analysing high-coverage genome sequence data from 4 …

How frequent is gene flow between species? The pattern of evolution is typically portrayed
as a phylogenetic tree, yet gene flow between good species may be an important …

On macroevolutionary timescales, extensive mutations and phylogenetic uncertainty mask
the signals of genotype–phenotype associations underlying convergent evolution. To …
