Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 16, August 2026.ABSTRACT Social structures and habitat configuration influence inbreeding in wild populations. In harem‐forming, female‐defence polygynous equids, social organization promotes inbreeding avoidance, but this has not been studied in fission–fusion, resource‐defence equid species.

The genomic timeline of cichlid fish diversification across continents
Nature Communications, 2020 Cichlids are a model for adaptive radiation, but the timing of their diversification is debated. Here the authors assemble 14 cichlid genomes, introduce a Bayesian approach to account for fossil-assignment uncertainty, and present a dated phylogenomic ...

Land Cover, Land Use, and Climate Change Impacts on Endemic Cichlid Habitats in Northern Tanzania
Remote Sensing, 2017 Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened on Earth, facing environmental and anthropogenic pressures often surpassing their terrestrial counterparts. Land use and land cover change (LUCC) such as degradation and fragmentation of the terrestrial

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 ...

FishesThe radiation of cichlid species in the East African Great Lakes is remarkable and rapid. The population genetics of two deep-water Cyphotilapia species along the east coast of Lake Tanganyika from Burundi to southern Tanzania was determined using ddRAD ...

Nature Communications, 2018 Lake Tanganyika’s cichlid radiation is the main source of East African cichlid diversity. Irisarri et al. resolve its phylogenetic backbone using anchored phylogenomics and identify trans-lineage hybridization prior to major speciation bursts and ...

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 ...

Development of Primary Cell Cultures from Haplochromine Cichlid Bone-Derived Tissues
FishesBone is a dynamic tissue with ecological and evolutionary importance, as it can grow and remodel itself in response to mechanical stimuli. In mammals, osteocytes are widely recognised as the central regulators of bone formation and mechanotransduction ...

FishesDiet, trophic niche, and mercury were examined for Cyphotilapia frontosa and C. gibberosa along the east coast of Lake Tanganyika, from northern Burundi to the southern region near the Zambian border. Mercury levels were generally low across populations,
