Abstract excerpt
Sympatric morphs provide valuable systems for studying incipient divergence despite incomplete reproductive isolation. In connected waterbodies with spatially heterogeneous habitats, one or more morphs may form metapopulation structures, generating eco-evolutionary dynamics unlike those in single lakes. We studied the phenotypic and genome-wide differentiation in Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) in two Icelandic...
