Cichlid Fish Diversity in Lake Victoria Is Linked to Environmental and Genetic Factors
A team of biologists affiliated with multiple institutions in Switzerland and Tanzania has found that early cichlid diversification in Lake Victoria led to their success in deep parts of the lake. In their study, reported in the journal Nature, the group studied four sediment cores obtained from the lake. Martin Genner, with the University of Bristol, has published a News & Views piece in the same journal issue, outlining the work done by the team on this new effort.
