Imaginal disc growth factor maintains cuticle structure and controls melanization in the spot pattern formation of Bombyx mori

The complex stripes and patterns of insects play key roles in behavior and ecology. However, the fine-scale regulation mechanisms underlying pigment formation and morphological divergence remain largely unelucidated. Here we demonstrated that imaginal disc growth factor (IDGF) maintains cuticle stru...
