A background-colour response is not a genetic colour change
The evidence library is allowed to change in public. This page preserves the revised boundary, why it moved and which guides were affected.
What changed
The colour guide now includes a seven-day assigned-environment comparison while separating an RGB response among survivors from inherited colour, commercial grade and camouflage benefit.
Why it changed
Only the blue group produced a significant among-channel difference. The preprint withheld feed for 14 days, reported about 56 percent survival in white, did not report vessel allocation or replication and barcoded only five colony representatives rather than all 64 experimental animals.
Sources reviewed for this change
Affected practical guides
A public change is not automatically a retraction. A source may be added, a scope narrowed, a gap refined or an error corrected. The current guide and registry record own the current wording.
