Evolutionary divergence of novel open reading frames in cichlids speciation

Scientific Reports, 2020
Novel open reading frames (nORFs) with coding potential may arise from noncoding DNA. Not much is known about their emergence, functional role, fixation in a population or contribution to adaptive radiation.

Game over: Conflict resolution through strategic growth in an invertebrate

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 36-50, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In some multimember groups with unequal partitioning of reproduction and poor breeding opportunities outside the group, natural selection has favoured the evolution of adaptive mechanisms such as strategic growth modulation.

Phylogeography and Ecological Niche Shape the Cichlid Fish Gut Microbiota in Central American and African Lakes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Cichlid fishes, with their repeated colonization of lakes and subsequent radiations at different scales of phylogenetic and ecological diversification, offer an excellent model system to understand the factors shaping the host-gut microbiota association ...

The Coevolution of Colour Patterns and Hindwing Shapes on a Large Phylogenetic Scale Reveals Predation‐Driven Adaptive Syndromes in Swallowtail Butterflies

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
By combining computer vision and morphometrics on museum specimens, we show that hindwing tail shape and colour patterns evolved in concert across swallowtails. Long‐tailed species display contrasted stripes and marginal spots, suggesting coevolution of deflective traits promoted by natural selection by predators.

The root of the East African cichlid radiations

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background For decades cichlid fishes (Perciformes: Cichlidae) of the East African cichlid radiations (Teleostei: Cichlidae) have served as natural experimental subjects for the study of speciation processes and the search for potential speciation key ...

Fine‐Scale Bioregionalization in a Complex Island System: A Freshwater Perspective From the Greater Antilles

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The isolated nature of islands makes them particularly vulnerable to climate change. The freshwater fishes of the Greater Antilles remain understudied and are further threatened by habitat fragmentation and the introduction of exotic invasive species.

Genomic Connectivity and Adaptation Signals of the Freshwater Sponge Ephydatia muelleri Across Its Distribution

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Genetic connectivity and local adaptation were examined across the distribution of the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri. Because it occupies an exceptional breadth of freshwater environments across a broad geographic range, this species offers key insights into biogeographic processes shaping genetic structure and adaptation in inland ...
