Phenotypic novelty in experimental hybrids is predicted by the genetic distance between species of cichlid fish

BACKGROUND: Transgressive segregation describes the occurrence of novel phenotypes in hybrids with extreme trait values not observed in either parental species. A previously experimentally untested prediction is that the amount of transgression increases with the genetic distance between hybridizing...
