Genome editing in butterflies reveals that spalt promotes and Distal-less represses eyespot colour patterns

Butterfly eyespot colour patterns are a key example of how a novel trait can appear in association with the co-option of developmental patterning genes. Little is known, however, about how, or even whether, co-opted genes function in eyespot development. Here we use CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to det...
