Ecological speciation in postglacial E uropean whitefish: rapid adaptive radiations into the littoral, pelagic, and profundal lake habitats
Understanding how a monophyletic lineage of a species diverges into several adaptive
forms has received increased attention in recent years, but the underlying mechanisms in …

Phenotype‐environment correlations in a putative whitefish adaptive radiation
The adaptive radiation of fishes into benthic (littoral) and pelagic (lentic) morphs in post‐
glacial lakes has become an important model system for speciation. Although these systems …

The role of gill raker number variability in adaptive radiation of coregonid fish
Gill raker divergence is a general pattern in adaptive radiations of postglacial fish, but few
studies have addressed the adaptive significance of this morphological trait in foraging and …

Morphological differentiation and resource polymorphism in three sympatric whitefish Coregonus lavaretus(L.) forms in a subarctic lake
K Kahilainen, K Østbye - Journal of Fish Biology, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Three field‐identified whitefish Coregonus lavaretus forms in Lake Muddusjärvi, Finland,
were compared in morphology, diet and prey size. First, these forms were studied with …

Sympatric diversification as influenced by ecological opportunity and historical contingency in a young species lineage of whitefish
In adaptive radiations, ecological opportunity (ie niche availability) is considered to be an
important driver to increase phenotypic variation, but diversity may also be constrained by …

Nutritional quality of littoral macroinvertebrates and pelagic zooplankton in subarctic lakes
Littoral benthic primary production is considered the most important energy source of
consumers in subarctic lakes. We analyzed essential fatty acid (EFA) and amino acid (EAA) …

Dual fuels: Intra‐annual variation in the relative importance of benthic and pelagic resources to maintenance, growth and reproduction in a generalist salmonid fish
Ecological systems are often characterized as stable entities. However, basal productivity in
most ecosystems varies between seasons, particularly in subarctic and polar areas. How …
