Summary:
Peppered moths and some copycat butterflies owe their color changes to a single gene, two new studies suggest. A tweak in a portion of the cortex gene painted the speckled gray wings of peppered moths black, researchers report. Genetic variants in DNA interspersed with and surrounding the cortex gene also helped some tasty species of Heliconius butterfly mimic unpalatable species, a second team of scientists reports.
"Jumping Gene Darkened Moths" is from the June 25, 2016 issue of Science News.
