Evidence for late Pleistocene origin of Astyanax mexicanus cavefish.

BMC evolutionary biology - 18 Apr 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cavefish populations belonging to the Mexican tetra species Astyanax mexicanus are outstanding models to study the tempo and mode of adaptation to a radical environmental change. They are currently assigned to two main groups, the so-called "old" and "new" lineages, which would have populated several caves independently and at different times. However, we do not have yet accurate estimations of the...
