MHC adaptive divergence between closely related and sympatric African cichlids.

PloS one - 15 Aug 2007

Blais Jonatan, Rico Ciro, van Oosterhout Cock, Cable Joanne, Turner George F, Bernatchez Louis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The haplochromine cichlid species assemblages of Lake Malawi and Victoria represent some of the most important study systems in evolutionary biology. Identifying adaptive divergence between closely-related species can provide important insights into the processes that may have contrib...
