Butterfly Wing Color Pattern Modification Inducers May Act on Chitin in the Apical Extracellular Site: Implications in Morphogenic Signals for Color Pattern Determination

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Butterfly wing color patterns are modified by various treatments, but their mechanisms of action have been enigmatic. We hypothesized that these modification-inducing treatments act on the pupal cuticle or extracellular matrix (ECM). Mechanical load tests revealed that pupae treated...
