The study highlights the importance of understanding the various ways in which life sustains and propagates itself, as species continue to decline due to climate change and other anthropogenic changes. The researchers suggest that having a broader pool of functionally characterized genes across organisms is crucial for genetic engineering efforts, such as enabling drought tolerance or adapting to light-polluted regimes.

Curious Moth: Flying Cream Candy as a Textbook Example of Evolution
Certain butterflies look like mythical creatures; Dryocampa rubicunda is a nocturnal moth with a striking appearance; Anisota is a related, diurnal group; the disco gene influences the day-night rhythm and led to the splitting of the species.

Flying Cream Candy as a Typical Example of Evolution
Two butterfly species, Dryocampa and Anisota, show the formation of new species. The disco gene influences their day-night rhythm, so that the species live separately and continue to evolve.
