Molecular investigation of genetic assimilation during the rapid adaptive radiations of East African cichlid fishes.

Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 2017

Gunter Helen M, Schneider Ralf F, Karner Immanuel, Sturmbauer Christian, Meyer Axel

Abstract excerpt

Adaptive radiations are characterized by adaptive diversification intertwined with rapid speciation within a lineage resulting in many ecologically specialized, phenotypically diverse species. It has been proposed that adaptive radiations can originate from ancestral lineages with pronounced phenotypic plasticity in adaptive traits, facilitating ecologically driven phenotypic diversification that is ultimately...
