Evolution tinkering with perception? 👀 doi.org/10.1098/rspb.... Led by former postdoc Natalie Roberts @lundvision.bsky.social & with Erik Svensson @EvolOdonata.ecoevo.social.ap.brid.gy
Opsin gene expression plasticity and spectral sensitivity in male damselflies could mediate female colour morph detection | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
The visual systems of Odonata are characterized by many opsin genes, which form the primary light-sensitive photopigments of the eye. Female-limited colour polymorphisms are also common in Odonata, wi...
