The ontogeny of color: developmental origins of divergent pigmentation in Drosophila americana and D. novamexicana.

Evolution & development - 1 Jul 2012

Abstract excerpt

Pigmentation is a model trait for evolutionary and developmental analysis that is particularly amenable to molecular investigation in the genus Drosophila. To better understand how this phenotype evolves, we examined divergent pigmentation and gene expression over developmental time in the dark-bodied D. americana and its light-bodied sister species D. novamexicana. Prior genetic analysis implicated two...
