Genetic divergence among morphotypes of Lake Tana (Ethiopia) barbs

1998-07-01

Abstract excerpt

The genus Barbus is a paraphyletic assemblage that includes three different ploidy levels: diploid, tetraploid and hexaploid. ‘B.’intermedins, which inhabits Lake Tana (Ethiopia), is a hexaploid taxon that forms a ‘species flock’ consisting of at least 14 morphotypes. Thirty-one presumptive allozymic loci were analysed in a large sample of ‘B.’ intermedius. No diagnostic loci were observed between the morphotypes,...
