Evolution of albinism in cave planthoppers by a convergent defect in the first step of melanin biosynthesis

Albinism, the reduction or loss of melanin pigment, is found in many diverse cave-dwelling animals. The mechanisms responsible for loss of melanin pigment are poorly understood. In this study we use a melanogenic substrate assay to determine the position where melanin synthesis is blocked in indepen...
