Pigment pattern morphospace of Danio fishes: evolutionary diversification and mutational effects [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying variation in adult form remain largely unknown. Adult pigment patterns of fishes in the genus Danio, which includes zebrafish, Danio rerio, consist of horizontal stripes, vertical bars, spots and uniform ...

A quantitative modelling approach to zebrafish pigment pattern formation [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Pattern formation is a key aspect of development. Adult zebrafish exhibit a striking striped pattern generated through the self-organisation of three different chromatophores.

Melanophore migration and survival during zebrafish adult pigment stripe development require the immunoglobulin superfamily adhesion molecule Igsf11. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
The zebrafish adult pigment pattern has emerged as a useful model for understanding the development and evolution of adult form as well as pattern-forming mechanisms more generally.

Long-distance communication by specialized cellular projections during pigment pattern development and evolution [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Changes in gene activity are essential for evolutionary diversification. Yet, elucidating the cellular behaviors that underlie modifications to adult form remains a profound challenge. We use neural crest-derived adult pigmentation of zebrafish and pearl

Pigment Melanin: Pattern for Iris Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2009
Recognition of iris based on Visible Light (VL) imaging is a difficult problem because of the light reflection from the cornea. Nonetheless, pigment melanin provides a rich feature source in VL, unavailable in Near-Infrared (NIR) imaging.

Retinal pigment epithelial disruption after retinal detachment repair using perfluorocarbon liquid and gas tamponade: a case series [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports
Purpose: To describe two cases of central visual disturbances following uncomplicated pars plana vitrectomy for macula-on retinal detachment. Observations: Both patients exhibited a distinctive angled pattern of focal disruptions of the retinal pigment ...

Cell-cell communication as underlying principle governing color pattern formation in teleost fishes [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The diverse pigmentation patterns of animals are crucial for predation avoidance and behavioral display. This diversity arises from interactions among distinct pigment cell types, yet mechanisms generating pattern variation across teleost fishes remain ...

The proteins involved in larval colouration in the cuticle and haemolymph of two strains of Antheraea pernyi (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2023
The proteome profiles of the cuticle and haemolymph of two strains of the Chinese Oak silk moth A. pernyi, with cyan and yellow coloured bodies, were compared in order to identify the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) that determine the ...

Correspondences Between Parameters in a Reaction-Diffusion Model and Connexin Functions During Zebrafish Stripe Formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Different diffusivities among interacting substances actualize the potential instability of a system. When these elicited instabilities manifest as forms of spatial periodicity, they are called Turing patterns.

Transcriptome analysis provides insights into the mechanism of carapace stripe formation in two closely related Marsupenaeus species

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Marsupenaeus japonicus has two types of phenotypic differences that are mainly reflected in the stripe pattern of the carapace. However, the underlying mechanism regulating the stripe patterns is not clear.
