Morphometric and Genetic Description of Trophic Adaptations in Cichlid Fishes
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Skull and jaw shape are critical to how an animal eats. The goal of this work was to examine how facial variation evolves and the genetic basis of these changes. We used two species of Lake Malawi cichlids with different facial shapes, one which has evolved to eat prey by suction fee...
