Chronologically inappropriate morphogenesis (chinmo) has been implicated as a potential juvenile stage specifier gene in Drosophila melanogaster. In their work, Yui Suzuki and Hana Nagata investigate the developmental role of chinmo in another hemimetabolous species, the large milkweed bug Oncopeltus fasciatus. To learn about their work, we spoke to the first author, Hana Nagata, and the corresponding author, Yui Suzuki, Dorothy and Charles Jenkins, Jr. Distinguished Chair in Science and Professor of Biological Sciences, Wellesley College, USA.
