Rates of phenotypic evolution of ecological characters and sexual traits during the Tanganyikan cichlid adaptive radiation.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Nov 2011

Gonzalez-Voyer A, Kolm N

Abstract excerpt

Theory suggests that sexual traits evolve faster than ecological characters. However, characteristics of a species niche may also influence evolution of sexual traits. Hence, a pending question is whether ecological characters and sexual traits present similar tempo and mode of evolution during periods of rapid ecological divergence, such as adaptive radiation. Here, we use recently developed phylogenetic...
