  • Comparative genomics studies reveal molecular signatures of the controversial 'phylotypic' stage — a time when embryos of members of an animal phylum all look more alike than at other embryonic stages. See Letters p.811 & p.815

  • Some fruit odours sexually arouse male fruitflies. The response is mediated by olfactory neurons that are sensitive to food smells and plug into the brain's neural circuit for sexual behaviour. See Letter p.236

  • Male wing pigmentation pattern involved in courtship display has been gained and lost multiple times in a Drosophila clade, each of the cases analysed (two gains and two losses) involving regulatory changes at the pleiotropic pigmentation gene yellow.

  • Male and female fruitflies use pheromones to flaunt their species identity and gender as they court amid other fruitfly species. The grammar of this chemical language is surprisingly sophisticated.

  • A new study shows that the independent adaptation to a ruminant lifestyle in two leaf-eating monkeys relied on parallel amino acid substitutions in ribonuclease gene duplicates. This discovery suggests that, given similar initial conditions, proteins may repeatedly follow similar adaptive evolutionary paths.
