The function and evolution of a genetic switch controlling sexually dimorphic eye differentiation in honeybees

Bee researchers at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) headed by Professor Dr. Martin Beye have identified a new gene in honeybees, which is responsible for the dimorphic eye differentiation between males and females of the species. The researchers have now presented this gene and the evolutionary genetic conclusions they have drawn from it in the journal Nature Communications.
