Hybrid origin of a cichlid population in Lake Malawi: implications for genetic variation and species diversity.

Molecular ecology - 1 Sept 2003

Smith Peter F, Konings Ad, Kornfield Irv

Abstract excerpt

The importance of species recognition to taxonomic diversity among Lake Malawi cichlids has been frequently discussed. Hybridization - the apparent breakdown of species recognition - has been observed sporadically among cichlids and has been viewed as both a constructive and a destructive force w...
