Glad to share my last thesis chapter! We show that a 22nt micro-RNA controls melanic wing patterns in Lepidoptera biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

A micro-RNA drives a 100-million-year adaptive evolution of melanic patterns in butterflies and...

A long-standing question in biology is how phenotypic variation is generated from genetic variation. In Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), an enigmatic genomic region containing the protein-coding...

NUS researchers propose that the causes of eye colour variation in primates may, in part, be explained by differences in lighting in the habitats of primate species. nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

Ecological factors are likely drivers of eye shape and colour pattern variations across anthropoid...

Researchers from the NUS Dept of Biological Sciences found that #butterflies with more forewing eyespots are more prone to damaging attacks from predators, and have lower fitness. #NUSResearch nus.edu/35gXcXl

#NUSResearch: NUS Science, @UnivofStAndrews & @UniLeiden scientists have found that ape eyes have the same pattern of colour differences as humans, which may mean that apes follow each other’s gaze — an ability previously thought to be unique to humans. news.nus.edu.sg/research/chi…

Look at these beautiful #caterpillar spiracles, the noses of #insects! Their internal respiratory system, however, is very vulnerable to air pollution. Check our new paper showing that haze can kill caterpillars: rdcu.be/9SOK w/ @YueqianClarissa & @MonteiroLab
