The combined effect of two mutations that alter serially homologous color pattern elements on the fore and hindwings of a butterfly

Abstract Background The ability for serially homologous structures to acquire a separate identity has been primarily investigated for structures dependent on Hox gene input but is still incompletely understood in other systems.The fore and hindwings of butterflies are serially homologous structures as are the serially homologous eyespots that can d
