Evolution: Repeat adaptation in the hot spring.

Type: article

Abstract: Live-bearing fish have repeatedly adapted to life in sulfidic hot springs. A new study finds consistent changes in morphology, physiology and gene expression but no repeated genomic adaptation. This raises further questions about genetic redundancy, polygenic adaptation and the broader significance of repeated adaptation in natural systems.
