Interplay between Developmental Flexibility and Determinism in the Evolution of Mimetic Heliconius Wing Patterns
Current Biology, 29(23), 3996–4009.e4.
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Evolution; Biological Mimicry; Butterflies / growth & development; Phenotype; Pigmentation; Selection, Genetic; Wings, Animal / growth & development; Wings, Animal / physiology
TL;DR:
The role that the signaling ligand WntA plays in generating mimetic wing patterns in Heliconius butterflies, a group with extraordinary mimicry-related wing pattern diversity, is explored, highlighting a surprising unpredictability in the developmental paths underlying convergence in a recent radiation.

Dissecting comimetic radiations in Heliconius reveals divergent histories of convergent butterflies
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 107(16), 7365–7370.
author keywords: amplified fragment length polymorphism; Heliconius erato; Heliconius melpomene; Mullerian mimicry; mtDNA
MeSH headings : Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis; Animals; Butterflies / genetics; Butterflies / physiology; Cluster Analysis; DNA, Mitochondrial / metabolism; Evolution, Molecular; Geography; Likelihood Functions; Models, Genetic; Molecular Sequence Data; Phenotype; Phylogeny; Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length; Species Specificity; Time Factors
TL;DR:
The results suggest that H. erato originated on the western side of South America whereas H. melpomene originated in the east, and that each of the three main wing pattern phenotypes originated and/or was lost multiple times in each species.

Highly conserved gene order and numerous novel repetitive elements in genomic regions linked to wing pattern variation in Heliconius butterflies
BMC GENOMICS, 9.
MeSH headings : Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis; Animals; Base Sequence; Butterflies / genetics; Chromosome Walking; Chromosomes, Artificial, Bacterial; Conserved Sequence; DNA / genetics; Gene Order; Genes, Insect; Genetic Linkage; Genetic Markers; Phenotype; Pigmentation / genetics; Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid; Sequence Analysis; Synteny; Wings, Animal
TL;DR:
A comparative analysis of genomic sequences linked to color pattern mimicry genes in Heliconius butterflies suggests that genome structure in macrolepidoptera might be very conserved, and shows that mapping and positional cloning efforts in different lepidopteran species can be reciprocally informative.
