AFLP genome scans suggest divergent selection on colour patterning in allopatric colour morphs of a cichlid fish.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2012

Mattersdorfer Karin, Koblmüller Stephan, Sefc Kristina M

Abstract excerpt

Genome scan-based tests for selection are directly applicable to natural populations to study the genetic and evolutionary mechanisms behind phenotypic differentiation. We conducted AFLP genome scans in three distinct geographic colour morphs of the cichlid fish Tropheus moorii to assess whether the extant, allopatric colour pattern differentiation can be explained by drift and to identify markers mapping to...
