Mating system variability in a mouthbrooding cichlid fish from a tropical lake.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2009

Sefc K M, Hermann C M, Koblmüller S

Abstract excerpt

Intraspecific variability in mating behaviour and disparities between social and reproductive behaviour add complexity to the description of animal mating systems. A previously published field study on a population of the maternally mouthbrooding cichlid fish Ctenochromis horei in the north of Lake Tanganyika suggested mate monopolization by the most dominant male. In the present study, genetic reconstructions of...
