Journal ArticleDOI
The Ecology of Individuals: Incidence and Implications of Individual Specialization
Daniel I. Bolnick,Richard Svanbäck,Richard Svanbäck,James A. Fordyce,Louie H. Yang,Jeremy M. Davis,C. Darrin Hulsey,Matthew L. Forister +7 more
TL;DR: The collection of case studies suggests that individual specialization is a widespread but underappreciated phenomenon that poses many important but unanswered questions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Many-to-One Mapping of Form to Function: A General Principle in Organismal Design?
TL;DR: The concept of many-to-one mapping of form to function is introduced and it is suggested that this emergent property of complex systems promotes the evolution of physiological diversity and may be involved in the uneven distribution of functional diversity seen among animal lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Ancient Gene Network Is Co-Opted for Teeth on Old and New Jaws
Gareth J. Fraser,C. Darrin Hulsey,C. Darrin Hulsey,Ryan F. Bloomquist,Kristine Uyesugi,Nancy R. Manley,J. Todd Streelman +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that tooth number is correlated on oral and pharyngeal jaws across species of cichlid fishes from Lake Malawi (East Africa), suggestive of common regulatory mechanisms for tooth initiation and an amazing modularity of jaws and teeth as they coevolved during the history of vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the use of ram and suction during prey capture by cichlid fishes
Peter C. Wainwright,Lara A. Ferry-Graham,Thomas B. Waltzek,Andrew M. Carroll,C. Darrin Hulsey,Justin R. Grubich +5 more
TL;DR: Diversity in prey-capture behavior was found to reflect differences among species in the strategy used to approach prey, interpreted as the result of an expected exponential decline in water velocity with distance from the mouth of the suction-feeding predator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and fossil evidence place the origin of cichlid fishes long after Gondwanan rifting
Matt Friedman,Benjamin P. Keck,Alex Dornburg,Ron I. Eytan,Christopher Martin,Christopher Martin,C. Darrin Hulsey,Peter C. Wainwright,Thomas J. Near +8 more
TL;DR: The results provide a revised macroevolutionary time scale for cichlids, imply a role for dispersal in generating the observed geographical distribution of this important model clade and add to a growing debate that questions the dominance of the vicariance paradigm of historical biogeography.
