Phenotypic plasticity in opsin expression in a butterfly compound eye complements sex role reversal
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Animals often display phenotypic plasticity in morphologies and behaviors that result in distinct adaptations to fluctuating seasonal environments. The butterfly <it>Bicyclus anynana</it> has two seasonal forms, wet and d...
