Conserved nuclear hormone receptors controlling a novel plastic trait target fast-evolving genes expressed in a single cell.
Environment shapes development through a phenomenon called developmental plasticity. Deciphering its genetic basis has potential to shed light on the origin of novel traits and adaptation to environmental change. However, molecular studies are scarce, and little is known about molecular mechanisms a...
