Association of Mc1r variants with ecologically relevant phenotypes in the European ocellated lizard, Lacerta lepida.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Oct 2011

Nunes V L, Miraldo A, Beaumont M A, Butlin R K, Paulo O S

Abstract excerpt

A comprehensive knowledge on the genetic basis of coloration is crucial to understand how new colour phenotypes arise and how they contribute to the emergence of new species. Variation in melanocortin-1 receptor (Mc1r), a gene that has been reported as a target for repeated evolution in a wide range of vertebrate taxa, was assessed in European ocellated lizards (Lacerta lepida) to search for associations with...
