Genome assembly of an endemic butterfly (Minois aurata) shed light on the genetic mechanisms underlying ecological adaptation to arid valley habitat
The chromosome-level genome offers a comprehensive genomic basis for understanding the evolutionary and adaptive strategies of Minois aurata in the unique arid valley environment of the Hengduan Mountains, while also providing valuable insights into the broader mechanisms of organism adaptation to such habitats.
