Distal-less and spalt are distal organisers of pierid wing patterns

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Jocelyn Liang Qi Wee from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the research work: Distal-less and spalt are distal organisers of pierid wing patterns, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors provide functional evidence for a deeply conserved role of two transcription factors, Distal-less and spalt, as pattern organisers of distal butterfly wing patterns. The authors show that both Dll and sal have deeply conserved roles in organising distal wing pattern elements in lepidopteran wings, predating the divergence of nymphalid and pierid butterflies. sal knockouts showed disrupted black spots and marginal markings, whereas Dll . . .
