Butterflies closer to the equator have been shown to evolve shared wing patterns faster than their relatives at higher latitudes. That gradient reframes tropical diversity as an active process, shaped ...
Heliconius charithonia is one of the species of butterflies whose wing patterns scientists scrutinized to better understand the evolutionary process. This butterfly is wild-type; the genetically ...
The genes that make a fruit fly's eyes red also produce red wing patterns in the Heliconius butterfly found in South and Central America, finds entomologists. The genes that make a fruit fly’s eyes ...

Two newly published complimentary studies have utilized CRISPR genome editing technology to explore how specific genes affect wing pattern variation in butterflies. By selectively knocking out single ...
ITHACA, N.Y. -- Butterfly wing patterns have a basic plan to them, which is manipulated by non-coding regulatory DNA to create the diversity of wings seen in different species, according to new ...
