dc.description.abstract |
The butterfly Heliconius erato can see freom the UV to the red part of the light spectrum with color vision proven freom 440 to 640 nm. Its eye is known to contain three visual pigments, rhodopsins, produced by an 11cis3hydroxyretinal chromophore together with long wavelength (LWRh), blue (BRh) and UV (UVRh1) opsins. We now find that H. erato has a second UV opsin mRNA (UVRh2)a previously undescribed duplication of this gene among Lepidoptera. To investigate its evolutionary origin, we screened eye cDNAs freom 14 butterfly species in the subfamily Heliconiinae and found both copies only among Heliconius. Phylogenybased tests of selection indicate positive selection of UVRh2 following duplication, and some of the positively selected sites correspond to vertebrate visual pigment spectral tuning residues. Epimicrospectrophotometry reveals two UVabsorbing rhodopsins in the H. erato eye with lambda(max) = 355 nm and 398 nm. Along with the additional UV opsin, Heliconius have also evolved 3hydroxyDLkynurenine (3OHK)based yellow wing pigments not found in close relatives. Visual models of how butterflies perceive wing color variation indicate this has resulted in an expansion of the number of distinguishable yellow colors on Heliconius wings. Functional diversification of the UVsensitive visual pigments may help explain why the yellow wing pigments of Heliconius are so colorful in the UV range compared to the yellow pigments of close relatives lacking the UV opsin duplicate. |
