Molecular evolution of non-visual opsin genes across environmental, developmental, and morphological adaptations in frogs

J. L. Boyette, R. C. Bell, M. K. Fujita, K. N. Thomas, J. W. Streicher, D. J. Gower, R. K. Schott

This study investigates the molecular evolution of non-visual opsin genes in frogs, identifying expressed genes, comparing selective constraints, and detecting adaptive evolution across ecological classes.

Cone-like rhodopsin expressed in the all cone retina of the colubrid pine snake as a potential adaptation to diurnality

N. Bhattacharyya, B. Darren, R. K. Schott, V. Tropepe, B. Chang

The study identifies blue-shifted rhodopsin with cone opsin properties in the all-cone retina of Pituophis melanoleucus, suggesting evolutionary transmutation from rod ancestors as an adaptation for diurnal vision.
