Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Six gene modifications in P. axillaris create an evolutionary mimic of P. secreta • The mimic is indistinguishable from P. secreta in appearance and pollinator choice • UV color and scent attract hawkmoths, whereas bee attraction requires visible color • Expression specificity minimizes pleiotropy of large-effect speciation genes
Keywords:
