Genetic and phenotypic variation along an ecological gradient in lake trout Salvelinus namaycush.

BMC evolutionary biology - 19 Oct 2016

Baillie Shauna M, Muir Andrew M, Hansen Michael J, Krueger Charles C, Bentzen Paul

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Adaptive radiation involving a colonizing phenotype that rapidly evolves into at least one other ecological variant, or ecotype, has been observed in a variety of freshwater fishes in post-glacial environments. However, few studies consider how phenotypic traits vary with regard to neutral genetic partitioning along ecological gradients. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of lake trout...
