Multiple soluble malate dehydrogenase of Geophagus brasiliensis (Cichlidae, Perciformes) [PDF]
A recent locus duplication hypothesis for sMDH-B* was proposed to explain the complex electrophoretic pattern of six bands detected for the soluble form of malate dehydrogenase (MDH, EC 1.1.1.37) in 84% of the Geophagus brasiliensis (Cichlidae ...

Rapid morphological change in multiple cichlid ecotypes following the damming of a major clearwater river in Brazil. [PDF]
Abstract While anthropogenic disturbances can have damaging effects on biodiversity, they also offer an opportunity to understand how species adapt to new environments and may even provide insights into the earliest stages of evolutionary diversification. With these topics in mind, we explored the morphological changes that have occurred across several
