Multiple fitness peaks on the adaptive landscape drive adaptive radiation in the wild.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 11 Jan 2013

Martin Christopher H, Wainwright Peter C

Abstract excerpt

The relationship between phenotype and fitness can be visualized as a rugged landscape. Multiple fitness peaks on this landscape are predicted to drive early bursts of niche diversification during adaptive radiation. We measured the adaptive landscape in a nascent adaptive radiation of Cyprinodon pupfishes endemic to San Salvador Island, Bahamas, and found multiple coexisting high-fitness regions driven by...
