Gene expression and the evolution of insect polyphenisms Gene expression and the evolution of insect polyphenisms Jay D. Evans1* and Diana E. Wheeler2 Summary Polyphenic differences between individuals arise not through differences at the genome level but as a result of specific cues received during development. Polyphen- isms often involve entire suites of characters, as shown dramatically by the polyphenic castes found in many social insect colonies. An understanding of the genetic architec
