A long non-coding RNA at the cortex locus controls adaptive colouration in butterflies

L. Livraghi, J. J. Hanly, E. Evans, C. J. Wright, L. S. Loh, A. Mazo-Vargas, K. Kamrava, A. T. Carter, E. S. van der Heijden, R. D. Reed, R. Papa, C. D. Jiggins, A. Martin

This study identifies a long non-coding RNA, ivory, at the cortex locus that controls adaptive colouration in butterflies by modulating pigmentation patterns through CRISPR mutagenesis.

Chromosome fusion affects genetic diversity and evolutionary turnover of functional loci, but consistently depends on chromosome size

F. Cicconardi, J. J. Lewis, S. H. Martin, R. D. Reed, C. G. Danko, S. H. Montgomery

This study examines how chromosome fusions in Heliconius butterflies affect genetic diversity and functional locus turnover, showing size-dependent evolutionary impacts.

Genomic architecture and introgression shape a butterfly radiation

N. B. Edelman, P. Frandsen, M. Miyagi, B. J. Clavijo, J. Davey, R. Dikow, G. Garcia Accinelli, S. M. Van Belleghem, N. J. Patterson, D. E. Neafsey, R. J. Challis, S. Kumar, G. R. P. Moreira, C. Salazar, M. Chouteau, , J. Mallet

The paper uses a low-cost genome assembly strategy to study Heliconius butterfly evolution, finding that introgression, not incomplete lineage sorting, explains most non-canonical genetic histories.
