New paper in @JEvBio! 🌿🦗.Just a few genetic loci shape the green-brown polymorphism in meadow grasshoppers! Simple Mendelian inheritance, yet long-term balancing selection keeps variation alive. 🔗 #Evolution #Genetics #Orthoptera.@PopEcolJena @MPI_CE.

Alcohol makes male fruit flies sexier! New study from @billhansson, @Keesey_IW et al. in @ScienceAdvances shows that alcohol boosts sex pheromone production in male D. melanogaster, making them more attractive to females. But too much is a turnoff!.
