Morphological and temporal variation in early embryogenesis contributes to species divergence in Malawi cichlid fishes.

Evolution & development - 1 Mar 2023

Marconi Aleksandra, Yang Cassandra Zie, McKay Samuel, Santos M Emília

Abstract excerpt

The cichlid fishes comprise the largest extant vertebrate family and are the quintessential example of rapid "explosive" adaptive radiations and phenotypic diversification. Despite low genetic divergence, East African cichlids harbor a spectacular intra- and interspecific morphological diversity, including the hyper-variable, neural crest (NC)-derived traits such as coloration and craniofacial skeleton. Although...
