Modular and redundant genomic architecture underlies combinatorial mechanism of speciation and adaptive radiation

Pooja Singh, Heidi E. L. Lischer, Kassandra L. Ford, Ehsan Pashay Ahi, Marcel Philipp Haesler, Salome Mwaiko, Joana I. Meier, David A. Marques, Rémy Bruggmann, Mary A. Kishe, Ole Seehausen C D

The paper investigates how hybridization contributes to adaptive radiation in Lake Victoria cichlids by analyzing genotype-phenotype associations across multiple traits.

Genomes reveal age and demographic consequence of ultrafast adaptive radiation

David A. Marques, Joana I. Meier, Matthew D. McGee, Marcel Philipp Haesler, Salome Mwaiko, Mary A. Kishe, Anthony Taabu‐Munyaho, Lauren J. Chapman, Colin A. Chapman, S.B. Wandera, Catherine E. Wagner, Laurent Excoffier, Ole Seehausen C D

The paper uses whole genomes to show that cichlid fish species in Lake Victoria and nearby lakes diversified extremely rapidly, with speciation rates much higher than previously estimated.
