Population genetics and independently replicated evolution of predator-associated burst speed ecophenotypy in mosquitofish.

Heredity - 1 Jan 2022

DeWitt Thomas J, Troendle Nicholas J, Mateos Mariana, Mauricio Rodney

Abstract excerpt

Many species show replicated ecophenotypy due to recurring patterns of natural selection. Based on the presence or absence of pursuit predators, at least 17 species of fish repeatedly differentiated in body shape in a manner that increases burst swimming speed and the likelihood of predator escape. The predator-associated burst speed (PABS) ecophenotype is characterized by a small head and trunk and enlarged...
