2023 article

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)

2022 journal article

Morphometric and Genetic Description of Trophic Adaptations in Cichlid Fishes

Biology, 11(8), 1165.

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

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.

2022 journal article

Polygenic sex determination produces modular sex polymorphism in an African cichlid fish

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 119(14).

By: E. Moore n, P. Ciccotto*, E. Peterson n, M. Lamm n, R. Albertson * & R. Roberts n 

author keywords: sex chromosomes; Malawi African cichlids; sexual dimorphism; sex determination
MeSH headings : Animals; Cichlids / genetics; Cichlids / physiology; Female; Genetic Fitness; Male; Phenotype; Polymorphism, Genetic; Sex Characteristics; Sex Chromosomes / genetics; Sex Determination Processes
TL;DR: This work investigates how sex differences emerge in a species with more than one set of sex chromosomes, measuring a variety of morphological, physiological, and behavioral traits and finds that significant creation or loss of variation in diverse traits can occur during transitions among sex chromosome systems.
