Recurrent modification of a conserved cis-regulatory element underlies fruit fly pigmentation diversity.

PLoS genetics - 1 Aug 2013

Abstract excerpt

The development of morphological traits occurs through the collective action of networks of genes connected at the level of gene expression. As any node in a network may be a target of evolutionary change, the recurrent targeting of the same node would indicate that the path of evolution is biased for the relevant trait and network. Although examples of parallel evolution have implicated recurrent modification of...
