The regulation of a pigmentation gene in the formation of complex color patterns in Drosophila abdomens

Komal Kumar Bollepogu Raja, Mujeeb Olushola Shittu, Peter M. E. Nouhan, Tessa E. Steenwinkel, Evan A. Bachman, Prajakta Paresh Kokate, Alexander H. McQueeney, Elizabeth A. Mundell, Alexandri A. Armentrout, Amber M. Nugent, Thomas Werner

The paper investigates the molecular mechanisms controlling the pigmentation gene yellow in Drosophila guttifera, showing that a single CRM orchestrates complex abdominal patterns through conserved regulatory elements and partial repression of ancestral stripe patterns.

From simplicity to complexity: The gain or loss of spot rows underlies the morphological diversity of three Drosophila species

William A. Dion, Mujeeb Olushola Shittu, Tessa E. Steenwinkel, Komal Kumar Bollepogu Raja, Prajakta Paresh Kokate, Thomas Werner

The paper investigates how abdominal spot rows in three Drosophila species evolved by examining mRNA expression patterns of pigmentation genes during pupal development.
