Shared and unique patterns of embryo development in extremophile poeciliids.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2011

Riesch Rüdiger, Schlupp Ingo, Langerhans R Brian, Plath Martin

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Closely related lineages of livebearing fishes have independently adapted to two extreme environmental factors: toxic hydrogen sulphide (H(2)S) and perpetual darkness. Previous work has demonstrated in adult specimens that fish from these extreme habitats convergently evolved drastically increased head and offspring size, while cave fish are further characterized by reduced pigmentation and eye size....
