Pigmented fungiform papillae of the tongue in a Japanese child
Pigmented fungiform papillae of the tongue (PFPT) does not require invasive investigation and treatment. However, if the patient requests treatment for aesthetic reasons, and the pigmentation is focally distributed, an excisional biopsy can be chosen for

A single gene (yes) controls pigmentation of eyes and scales in Heliothis virescens
A yellow-eyed mutant was discovered in a strain of Heliothis virescens, the tobacco budworm, that already exhibited a mutation for yellow scale, y. We investigated the inheritance of these visible mutations as candidate markers for transgenesis.

Factors affecting rind pitting in the mandarin hybrids "fortune" and "nova". The influence of exogenous growth regulators [PDF]
The commercialization of the mandarin hybrids "Fortune" and "Nova" is hindered by the development of cold-induced pitting in the fruit rind which may develop either in the orchard or during storage and transport. In the late cropping cultivar "Fortune",

Nature is rich in colors (minerals, plants, microalgae, etc.), and pigment-producing microorganisms (fungi, yeasts, and bacteria) are quite common. Among the molecules produced by microorganisms are carotenoids, melanins, flavins, phenazines, quinones, bacteriochlorophylls, and more specifically monascins, violacein, or indigo.
