Genomic analysis of cichlid fish 'natural mutants'.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Dec 2008

Kuraku Shigehiro, Meyer Axel

Abstract excerpt

In the lakes of East Africa, cichlid fishes have formed adaptive radiations that are each composed of hundreds of endemic, morphologically stunningly diverse, but genetically extremely similar species. In the past 20 years, it became clear that their extreme phenotypic diversity arose within very short time spans, and that phenotypically radically different species are exceptionally similar genetically; hence,...
