Backinthe1860s,aBritishscientistnamedHenryWalterBatesnoticedsomethinginterestingintheanimalworld:

akindofbutterfly,CommonMormon,canchangethepatternonitswingssothatitlookslikeanotherbutterflyspecies,theCommonRose,whichispoisonousforbirdstoeat.

Batesarguedthatanimalsdevelopthisabilitytoprotectthemselvesfrombeingeaten.Thistheoryhadbeenwidelyacceptedbyscientists.Butonequestionremains:

howdotheseanimalsmanagetodothat?

Aftermorethan150years,scientistsarefinallyabletoanswerthatquestion-itisalldowntoagene（基因）called“doublesex",accordingtoastudypublishedonMarch6inthejournalNature.

Infact,scientistshavelongknownthatgenesareresponsibleforthisusefulability.Butuntilthenewstudy,scientistshadn'tbeenabletofindoutwhichgenesinparticularwereresponsible.

ScientistsattheUniversityofChicagocomparedthegeneticstructuresoftheCommonMormonsthatchangedtheirwingpatternswiththoseofonesthatdidnot.Andalltheresultspointedtoasinglegene,“doublesex”.

Thiswasmuchtothescientists'surprise.Theyusedtoexpectthatsomethingascomplexasthiswouldbecontrolledbymanydifferentgenes.Forexample,onegenewouldcontrolthecoloroftheupperpartofthewing,onewoulddosoforthelowerpart.

However,the“doublesex”genedoesn'tquitedoeverythingbyitself.Instead,itactslikeaswitch-it“tells”othergenestochangethewingpatterns.Isn'tthatclever?

Scientistsbelievethatthisspecialabilityofthe“doublesex”geneonCommonMormonwasdevelopedthroughoutthelonghistoryofevolution.“Theharmlessspeciesgainsanadvantagebyresemblingsomethingpredators（捕食者）avoid,”SeanCarroll,ascientisttoldNature.“itwasobviousevidencefornaturalselection.”
