Genetic basis of ecologically relevant body shape variation among four genera of cichlid fishes

DeLorenzo, L., Mathews, D., Brandon, A. A., Joglekar, M., Baez, A. C., Moore, E. C., … Powder, K. E. (2023, May 10). MOLECULAR ECOLOGY, Vol. 5.

By: L. DeLorenzo*, D. Mathews*, A. Brandon*, M. Joglekar*, A. Baez n, E. Moore n, P. Ciccotto n, N. Roberts n, R. Roberts n, K. Powder*

author keywords: adaptation; Cichlidae; fish diversification; quantitative trait loci
TL;DR: It is found that convergent body shape phenotypes commonly observed across fish clades are most likely due to distinct genetic and molecular mechanisms. (via Semantic Scholar)

Morphometric and Genetic Description of Trophic Adaptations in Cichlid Fishes

BIOLOGY-BASEL, 11(8).

By: L. DeLorenzo*, V. DeBrock*, A. Baez n, P. Ciccotto n, E. Peterson n, C. Stull n, N. Roberts n, R. Roberts n, K. Powder n

author keywords: craniofacial; quantitative trait loci; geometric morphometrics
TL;DR: The genetic and molecular origins of trophic adaptation using Lake Malawi cichlids, which have undergone an exemplary evolutionary radiation, suggest that craniofacial traits are mostly inherited as separate modules, which confers a high potential for the evolution of morphological diversity.

Genetic sex determination in Astatotilapia calliptera, a prototype species for the Lake Malawi cichlid radiation

SCIENCE OF NATURE, 104(5-6).

By: E. Peterson n, M. Cline n, E. Moore n, N. Roberts n & R. Roberts n

author keywords: Sex chromosome; Genetic sex determination; Cichlid; Fish; Astatotilapia calliptera
MeSH headings : Animal Distribution; Animals; Cichlids / classification; Cichlids / genetics; Cichlids / physiology; Female; Genetic Markers / genetics; Male; Sex Chromosomes / genetics; Sex Determination Processes / genetics; Species Specificity
TL;DR: This study identifies a male heterogametic XY system segregating at linkage group (LG) 7 in an A. calliptera line that originated from Lake Malawi, at a locus previously shown to act as an XY sex determination system in multiple species of Lake Malawian cichlids. (via Semantic Scholar)

Development of a universal double-digest RAD sequencing approach for a group of nonmodel, ecologically and economically important insect and fish taxa

Molecular Ecology Resources, 16(6), 1303–1314.

By: M. Burford Reiskind n, K. Coyle n, H. Daniels n, P. Labadie n, M. Reiskind n, N. Roberts n, R. Roberts n, J. Schaff n, E. Vargo*

author keywords: double-digest RAD sequencing; high-throughput sequencing; reduced representation sequencing; restriction enzyme digests
MeSH headings : Animals; DNA / chemistry; DNA / metabolism; DNA Restriction Enzymes / metabolism; Fishes / genetics; Genomics / methods; Insecta / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA / methods
TL;DR: The results of this study provide empirical evidence of the utility of this method for producing consistent data for diverse nonmodel species and suggest specific considerations for sequencing analysis strategies. (via Semantic Scholar)

Polygenic sex determination in the cichlid fish Astatotilapia burtoni

BMC GENOMICS, 17.

By: N. Roberts n, S. Juntti*, K. Coyle n, B. Dumont n, M. Stanley n, A. Ryan n, R. Fernald*, R. Roberts n

author keywords: Sex determination; Polygenic sex determination; Cichlid; Fish; Evolution; Astatotilapia burtoni
MeSH headings : Animals; Cichlids / genetics; Evolution, Molecular; Female; Genetic Association Studies; Genetic Linkage; Inheritance Patterns; Male; Penetrance; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Sex Determination Processes / genetics; Sex Ratio
TL;DR: Mapping results supporting the presence of multiple, novel sex determination alleles in A. burtoni provide a foundation for future mapping of multiple sex determination genes and their interactions and provide important context for their use in behavioral studies, as well as studies of the evolution of genetic sex determination and sexual conflicts in East African cichlids.
