A multiscale approach to understanding the shared blue-orange flower color polymorphism in two Lysimachia species. [PDF]
Background Polymorphisms are common in nature, but they are rarely shared among closely related species. Polymorphisms could originate through convergence, ancestral polymorphism, or introgression. Although shared neutral genomic variation across species

Ontogeny of color development in two green–brown polymorphic grasshopper species
Many insects, including several orthopterans, undergo dramatic changes in body coloration during ontogeny. This variation is particularly intriguing in gomphocerine grasshoppers, where the green and brown morphs appear to be genetically determined ...

Color polymorphism is a fascinating property exhibited by compounds that have polymorphs of different colors. The most famous family of substances forming molecular organic color polymorphs is the ROY family of compounds. ROY, which states for the red, orange, and yellow colors of the polymorphs of 5-methyl-2-((2-nitrophenyl)amino)thiophene-3 ...

PMEL p.Leu18del dilutes coat color of Kumamoto sub-breed of Japanese Brown cattle
Background Coat color is important for registration and maintenance of livestock. Standard coat color of Kumamoto sub-breed of Japanese Brown cattle is solid brown, but individuals with diluted coat color have been observed recently.

Enclosure Background Preferences Differ between Sexes and Color Morphs in the Gouldian Finch
Most wild animals camouflage well into their environment, providing protection from predators, whereas captive animals often contrast with their background. This can cause stress for the animal, which may perceive it as being exposed.

Color polymorphism is a driver of diversification
Color polymorphism – two or more heritable color phenotypes maintained within a single breeding population – is an extreme type of intra-specific diversity widespread across the tree of life.

Evolutionary history and diversity in the ball roller beetle Canthon cyanellus
To understand the evolutionary history of species, it is necessary to know the mechanisms for reproductive isolation, divergence-time between populations, and the relative action of the evolutionary forces (e.g., mutation, genetic drift, gene flow ...
