Enhancing Ebony? Common Associations With a cis-Regulatory Haplotype for Drosophila melanogaster Thoracic Pigmentation in a Japanese Population and Australian Populations

The molecular underpinnings of pigmentation diversity in Drosophila have recently emerged as a model for understanding how the evolution of different cis-regulatory variants results in common adaptive phenotypes within species. We compared sequence variation in a 5′ regulatory region harboring a mod...
