Employing the clear, student-friendly style that made previous editions so popular, Insect
Physiology and Biochemistry, Fourth Edition presents an engaging and authoritative guide …

Butterfly wing patterns derive from a deeply conserved developmental ground plan yet are
diverse and evolve rapidly. It is poorly understood how gene regulatory architectures can …

Butterfly color patterns provide visible and biodiverse phenotypic readouts of the patterning
processes. Although the secreted ligand WntA has been shown to instruct the color pattern …

The saturniid moth genus Automeris includes 145 described species. Their geographic
distribution ranges from the eastern half of North America to as far south as Peru. Automeris …

Simple Summary Butterfly wing color patterns are diverse, but they can be understood as
modifications of the common scheme called the nymphalid groundplan. The discal spot is …

O Sul Global testemunhou crescente amostragem de sua imensa diversidade biológica
durante o século passado. Entretanto, a diversidade de muitas regiões permanece …

Butterfly color patterns provide visible and biodiverse phenotypic readouts of the patterning
processes that occur in a developing epithelium. While the secreted ligand WntA was shown …

Background: Studies of heparin effects on Lepidoptera wing patterns have been restricted to
a small number of species. I report observations from experiments on a broader range of …

Biological systems present immense robustness to environmental, genetic and stochastic
variation, within which butterfly wings emerge as a prime model. Void of complexities during …

Many species of plants and a few species of animals are believed to have resulted from
hybridization of parental species, and the ability of species to occasionally hybridize in …
