Nuclear gene variation and molecular dating of the cichlid species flock of Lake Malawi.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Apr 2006

Abstract excerpt

The cichlid fishes of Lake Malawi are famously diverse. However, evolutionary studies have been difficult because of their recent and uncertain phylogenetic history. Portions of 12 nuclear loci were sequenced in nine rock-dwelling species (mbuna) and three representatives of pelagic nonmbuna species. In contrast to the pattern of variation at mitochondrial genes, which do provide phylogenetic resolution at the...
