Divergent Selection on Opsins Drives Incipient Speciation in Lake Victoria Cichlids

Divergent natural selection acting on ecological traits, which also affect mate choice, is a key element of ecological speciation theory, but has not previously been demonstrated at the molecular gene level to our knowledge. Here we demonstrate parallel evolution in two cichlid genera under strong d...
