The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The genome of D. phalerata was sequenced in 2019 as part of a study on the evolution of immune systems, but was not assembled de novo.
- Unlike its sister species D. innubila, the anterior and posterior costal wing veins of D. phalerata show prominent melanin deposition.
- Drosophila quinaria species group flies including the related D. guttifera display marked variation in their wing patterning, and melanin synthesis and deposition has been used as an obvious and malleable trait to study the regulation of gene expression.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Drosophila phalerata article was read about 240 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 39 and blocks with 26: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
