Comparative genomics and adult-female transcriptomics prioritize physiological candidate pathways in the aquatic acentropine moth Paracymoriza distinctalis.
Freshwater-associated life histories are rare in Lepidoptera, and the physiological systems accompanying them remain poorly resolved. We integrated adult-female whole-body RNA-seq from Paracymoriza distinctalis (n = 3) and three terrestrial crambids (n = 3, 3, and 2) with focused comparative genomics to prioritize test...
