Selection-driven trait loss in independently evolved cavefish populations

R. L. Moran, E. J. Richards, C. P. Ornelas-Garcia, J. B. Gross, A. Donny, J. Wiese, A. C. Keene, J. E. Kowalko, N. Rohner, S. E. McGaugh

This study shows that selection, not mutation, drives repeated trait evolution in cavefish, with genes having longer coding regions being more likely to undergo repeated adaptation.

Sensory convergence in the world s largest cavefish diversification: patterns of neuromast evolution, distribution and associated behaviour in Sinocyclocheilus

B. Chen, T. Mao, Y. Liu, W. Dai, X. Li, A. P. Rajput, J. Yang, J. B. Gross, M. Meegaskumbura

This study examines neuromast evolution and distribution in Sinocyclocheilus cavefish, finding asymmetry and convergence in cave-adapted species with distinct wall-following behaviours.

Evolution in Sinocyclocheilus cavefish is marked by rate shifts, reversals and origin of novel traits

T.-R. Mao, Y.-W. Liu, M. Meegaskumbura, J. Yang, G. Ellepola, G. Senevirathne, C.-H. Fu, J. B. Gross, M. R. Pie

This study analyzes the evolutionary patterns of Sinocyclocheilus cavefish, identifying rate shifts, trait reversals, and novel traits in their morphological evolution.

A geographical cline in craniofacial morphology across populations of Mesoamerican lake-dwelling fishes

A. K. Powers, C. Garita-Alvarado, R. Rodiles-Hernandez, D. J. Berning, J. B. Gross, C. P. Ornelas-Garcia

The paper examines craniofacial morphology variation in Mesoamerican lake-dwelling fishes, finding an ecomorphological cline linked to environmental pressures and local adaptation.

The role of gene flow in rapid and repeated evolution of cave related traits in Mexican tetra, Astyanax mexicanus

A. Herman, Y. Brandvain, J. Weagley, W. R. Jeffery, A. C. Keene, T. J. Y. Kono, H. Bilandzija, R. Borowsky, L. Espinasa, K. O'Quin, C. P. Ornelas-Garcia, M. Yoshizawa, B. Carlson, E. Maldonado, J. B. Gross, , S. E. McGaugh

This study shows that gene flow plays a significant role in the rapid evolution of cave-related traits in Mexican tetra, challenging the classic hypothesis of disuse and drift.
