Insights into insect wing origin provided by functional analysis of vestigial in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 15 Oct 2013

Abstract excerpt

Despite accumulating efforts to unveil the origin of insect wings, it remains one of the principal mysteries in evolution. Currently, there are two prominent models regarding insect wing origin: one connecting the origin to the paranotal lobe and the other to the proximodorsal leg branch (exite). However, neither hypothesis has been able to surpass the other. To approach this conundrum, we focused our analysis on...
