Here is a very detailed examination on how pigmentation in the cuticle of a butterfly wing scale changes the density and refractive index of chitin and, thus, also alters structural color. rdcu.be/eyUwS
For those interested in the evolution of phenotypic plasticity - Shen Tian et al. found that a novel bit of DNA - a Hox gene promoter in the genome of satyrid butterflies - boosts plasticity in the size of their eyespots in response to temperature. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Short documentary movie about a micro RNA with a mega impact on lepidopteran coloration (research led by Shen Tian featured in Science): youtu.be/xsjlZWldn8s

Butterfly larvae can pass on a learned odor preference to other larvae via a simple hemolymph transfusion. Short film about the work (published today) by my daughter Florence: youtu.be/qSABUSHdrjQ
Did you realize that butterflies hear, and being able to hear the presence of a competitor increases mating success? royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.109…
For those interested in satyrid butterflies, here is the annotated genome of a new species: Mycalesis mineus academic.oup.com/gbe/article/do…
I am looking for an enthusiastic student who wants to perform research on sound communication in butterflies, or on odor learning in butterfly larvae, at the organismal and/or molecular levels (e.g., brain circuitry and single-cell gene expression levels). Fellowship available!
Glad to share my last thesis chapter! We show that a 22nt micro-RNA controls melanic wing patterns in Lepidoptera biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

NUS researchers propose that the causes of eye colour variation in primates may, in part, be explained by differences in lighting in the habitats of primate species. nature.com/articles/s4159…
It also proposes that hotspot loci of evolution happen primarily in genes that have been modularized, anywhere in a gene-regulatory network.
Here is a new perspective that proposes that modular tissue-specific enhancers derive from pleiotropic enhancers via the neutral DDC process (duplication, degeneration and complementation) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…
Very, very, happy and proud about all the collaborative work that went into this manuscript, including key experimental work that gets us closer to understanding the origins of novel complex traits in organisms. pnas.org/content/119/8/…
