Evolution of yellow gene regulation and pigmentation in Drosophila.

Current biology : CB - 17 Sept 2002

Wittkopp Patricia J, Vaccaro Kathy, Carroll Sean B

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Changes in developmental gene expression are central to phenotypic evolution, but the genetic mechanisms underlying these changes are not well understood. Interspecific differences in gene expression can arise from evolutionary changes in cis-regulatory DNA and/or in the expression of...
