Alternative Mating Tactics in Male Chameleons (Chamaeleo chamaeleon) Are Evident in Both Long-Term Body Color and Short-Term Courtship Pattern. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Alternative mating tactics in males of various taxa are associated with body color, body size, and social status. Chameleons are known for their ability to change body color following immediate environmental or social stimuli.

Creation of body color mutants by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides

Aquaculture Reports
Largemouth bass (LMB, Microterus salmoides) is an important commercial freshwater fish, and body color is a key economic trait for quality improvement. Gene editing has not been established in LMB due to the unavailability of one-cell fertilized eggs. In

A β-carotene-binding protein carrying a red pigment regulates body-color transition between green and black in locusts [PDF]

eLife, 2019
Changes of body color have important effects for animals in adapting to variable environments. The migratory locust exhibits body color polyphenism between solitary and gregarious individuals, with the former displaying a uniform green coloration and the
