José Borrero

Excited to share that my first paper for my masters thesis is out! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

We are excited to announce that the winner of this year’s #BiologyLetters #ECR Competition is Jose Borrero. Read "Weighting of sensory cues reflect changing patterns of visual investment during ecological divergence in Heliconius butterflies" here: ow.ly/UqYc50UCnVU @borreroja

Weighting of sensory cues reflect changing patterns of visual investment during ecological divergence in Heliconius butterflies royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

#ecobhrv2024 #Behaviouralecology When your visual👀and olfactory senses👃give you contradicting information, which one would you trust? @borreroja from @LMU_Munchen is now presenting how two species of 🦋 made their choices and how this reveals differences in neural investment🧠

If you're interested in visual and olfactory guided #behavior come see my talk today in room 516B at 11:30 #Evol2024

🦋 Un equipo internacional de científicos, de la Universidad de York y la Universidad de Harvard, que incluye a Nicol Rueda y Camilo Salazar por parte de nuestra @urosario, ha hecho un descubrimiento de un caso de especiación que se creía poco frecuente en la naturaleza.

A team led by evolutionary biologist @DickMerrill has identified the #gene that influences mate choice in #butterflies . A look into the complicated world of butterfly mating reveals surprising genetic correlations. @URosario @stri_panama lmu.de/en/newsroom/ne…

Adaptive divergence in the eyes of Heliconius butterflies likely contributes to pre- and post mating isolation dlvr.it/SyD3s7

Overall we found that UV availability does not influence the oviposition behaviour (As the title suggests 😅). Which leaves us with the question… what are Heliconius females using UV discrimination for 🧐?

We also modelled how female butterflies perceived their hostplants.

From water fleas to butterflies: José Antonio Borrero Malo talks about ultraviolet adaptation of the visual system in Heliconius butterflies!
