Biochemical and Genomic Underpinnings of Carotenoid Colour Variation Across a Hybrid Zone Between South Asian Flameback Woodpeckers.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2025

Ranasinghe Rashika W, Hudon Jocelyn, Seneviratne Sampath S, Irwin Darren

Abstract excerpt

Colouration and patterning have been implicated in lineage diversification across various taxa, as colour traits are heavily influenced by sexual and natural selection. Investigating the biochemical and genomic foundations of these traits therefore provides deeper insights into the interplay between genetics, ecology and social interactions in shaping the diversity of life. In this study, we assessed the pigment...
