Recent studies have shed light on the genetic basis of visual mate choice in Heliconius butterflies and the unique traits of Bengal cats, including the 'glitter' effect, tracing back to domestic and leopard cat ancestors. The research provides insights into visually guided behaviors encoded in the genome.
A new study published in @CurrentBiology delves into the fascinating #Genetics behind #Bengal #Cats, provides some genetic surprises, and reveals some genetic secrets that underlie their unique appearance. @hudsonalpha https://t.co/wkGYY4shXB
New research published today from a recent Gencove collaboration examines the genetic intricacies behind the Bengal cat's unique traits, including the popular 'glitter' effect, tracing back to domestic and leopard cat ancestors.
