Geography disentangles introgression from ancestral polymorphism in Lake Malawi cichlids.

Molecular ecology - 1 Mar 2010

Mims Meryl C, Darrin Hulsey C, Fitzpatrick Benjamin M, Streelman J Todd

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypically diverse Lake Malawi cichlids exhibit similar genomes. The extensive sharing of genetic polymorphism among forms has both intrigued and frustrated biologists trying to understand the nature of diversity in this and other rapidly evolving systems. Shared polymorphism might result from hybridization and/or the retention of ancestrally polymorphic alleles. To examine these alternatives, we used new...
