The hundreds of cichlid fish species in Lake Malawi constitute the most extensive recent
vertebrate adaptive radiation. Here we characterize its genomic diversity by sequencing 134 …

Adaptive radiation is the likely source of much of the ecological and morphological diversity
of life 1 , 2 , 3 – 4 . How adaptive radiations proceed and what determines their extent …

Cichlid fishes are famous for large, diverse and replicated adaptive radiations in the Great
Lakes of East Africa. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying cichlid phenotypic …

High-quality and complete reference genome assemblies are fundamental for the application
of genomics to biology, disease, and biodiversity conservation. However, such assemblies …

The genomic causes and effects of divergent ecological selection during speciation are still
poorly understood. Here we report the discovery and detailed characterization of early-stage …

The adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in East African Lake Malawi encompasses over 500
species that are believed to have evolved within the last 800,000 years from a common …

Patterson's D, also known as the ABBA‐BABA statistic, and related statistics such as the f 4 ‐ratio,
are commonly used to assess evidence of gene flow between populations or closely …

Evolutionary radiations are responsible for much of the variation in biodiversity across taxa.
Cichlid fishes are well known for spectacular evolutionary radiations, as they have …

Powerful approaches to inferring recent or current population structure based on nearest
neighbor haplotype “coancestry” have so far been inaccessible to users without high quality …

Epigenetic variation can alter transcription and promote phenotypic divergence between
populations facing different environmental challenges. Here, we assess the epigenetic basis of …
