Functional genomics implicates ebony in the black pupae phenotype of tephritid fruit flies

Abstract The remarkable diversity of insect pigmentation offers a captivating avenue for studying evolution and genetics. In tephritids, understanding the molecular basis of mutant traits is also crucial for applied entomology, enabling the creation of genetic sexing strains through genome editing,...
