Tajiri et al. describe how the cuticle coating the Drosophila larval body expands less efficiently along the body circumference than along the anteroposterior axis to drive body elongation. This “corset” property depends on cuticular proteins Cpr

Abstract Dimorphic female-limited Batesian mimicry in the swallowtail butterfly Papilio polytes is regulated by the supergene locus H, harbouring the mimetic (H) and non-mimetic (h) doublesex (dsx) gene. In the present study, we demonstrated that dsx

Abstract Background Although most of long interspersed elements (LINEs), one class of non-LTR-retrotransposons, are integrated into the host genome randomely, some elements are retrotransposed into the specific sequences of the genomic regions, such

Summary: In most Papilio species, a younger larva mimics bird droppings but changes its pattern to match host plant colors in its final instar. This change is determined by juvenile hormone (JH) during the JH-sensitive period (JHSP) early in the four

Mimicry is a survival strategy in which organisms deceive their predators by imitating other organisms or the surrounding environment. One example of this involves pupal color polymorphism, which is widely observed in butterflies and moths. It has be

Abstract Background Antennae are multi-segmented appendages and main odor-sensing organs in insects. In Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies), antennal morphologies have diversified according to their ecological requirements. While diurnal butterflies

Body shapes are much more variable than body plans. One way to alter body shapes independently of body plans would be to mechanically deform bodies. To what extent body shapes are regulated physically, or molecules involved in physical control of mor

Transposons, or transposable elements, are the major components of genomes in most eukaryotes. Some groups of transposons have developed target specificity that limits the integration sites to a specific nonessential sequence or a genomic region to a

Spine-like or protruding structures, which may be aposematic for predators, are often observed in multiple segments of lepidopteran larvae (caterpillars). For example, the larvae of the Chinese wheel butterfly, Byasa alcinous, display many protrusion

Three distinct classes of nuclear receptors, EcR, E75, and HR3, are key regulators in the ecdysone-inducible gene activation cascade in insects. The transcription of these genes is induced by ecdysone (20E) differently, although the detailed mechanis
