Genetic and peripheral visual system changes underlie evolving butterfly mate preference

See http://tny.im/r-8 — Many studies have linked genetic variation to behavior, but less is known about how that variation alters the neural circuits that drive behavior. We investigated the genetic and neurobiological basis of courtship preference variation in Heliconius butterflies, which use vision to identify appropriate mates based on wing color patterns. We found that…
