The untapped potential of medaka and its wild relatives
L Hilgers, J Schwarzer - Elife, 2019 - elifesciences.org
The medaka is a fish that has served as a model organism for over a century, yet there is still
much to learn about its life in the wild. Here we summarize the current knowledge, highlight …

Species divergence and repeated ancient hybridization in a Sulawesian lake system
IF Mandagi, R Kakioka, J Montenegro… - Journal of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
An increasing volume of empirical studies demonstrated that hybridization between distant
lineages may have promoted speciation in various taxa. However, the timing, extent and …

Divergence in interspecific and intersubspecific gene expression between two closely related horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus)
J Li, K Sun, W Dai, H Leng, J Feng - Journal of Mammalogy, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Closely related species have been used as representative systems to investigate the genetic

Variation in mating behaviors between a tropical and a temperate species of medaka fishes
BKA Sumarto, AB Nofrianto, DF Mokodongan… - Zoological science, 2020 - BioOne
In medaka fishes, the family Adrianichthyidae, tropical species are known to be sexually
more dimorphic than temperate species. If this reflects that tropical species are exposed to …

Lacustrine speciation associated with chromosomal inversion in a lineage of riverine fishes
Geographic isolation is the primary driver of speciation in many vertebrate lineages. This
trend is exemplified by North American darters, a clade of freshwater fishes where nearly all …

Shape and size variation of Jenynsia lineata (Jenyns 1842) (Cyprinodontiformes: Anablepidae) from different coastal environments
GX Perazzo, F Corrêa, P Calviño, F Alonso… - Hydrobiologia, 2019 - Springer
A key question in ecological speciation is to understand the causes and consequences of
phenotypic divergence among populations. In this work, we analyzed the body shape and …

Sexual dimorphism and species divergence between a habitat generalist and a habitat specialist
H Sudasinghe - Ecology of Freshwater Fish, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Sexual dimorphism, the phenotypic differences between males and females within a
species, is widespread in the animal kingdom. This study investigates the extent of sexual …

Resource partitioning is not coupled with assortative mating in sympatrically divergent ricefish in a Wallacean ancient lake
R Kakioka, N Sutra, H Kobayashi… - Journal of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com

Evolutionary history of the medaka long-wavelength sensitive genes and effects of artificial regression by gene loss on behavioural photosensitivity
Y Harada, M Matsuo, Y Kamei, M Goto… - Scientific Reports, 2019 - nature.com
Tandem gene duplication has led to an expansion of cone-opsin repertoires in many fish,
but the resulting functional advantages have only been conjectured without empirical …

Convergent evolution of body color between sympatric freshwater fishes via different visual sensory evolution
J Montenegro, K Mochida, K Matsui… - Ecology and …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Although there are many examples of color evolution potentially driven by sensory drive,
only few studies have examined whether distinct species inhabiting the same environments …
