This project investigates the genetic basis of species formation and adaptations in cichlid fish from Nicaragua's crater lakes. By utilizing advanced genomic techniques, it aims to understand how natural selection drives adaptive traits and species divergence in these rapidly evolving populations.
Darwin suggested that natural selection not only leads to adaptation but also promotes the origin of species.
Ecological speciation acts through divergent natural selection and one of the most informative circumstances in which one can investigate how adaptive traits and how species evolve – and what the genetic basis of species differences and adaptations are - are repeated adaptive radiations that are based on parallel adaptations that evolved more than once.
In only a few species has the gene…
