' (162 chars) description => protected'Parasites can shape the structure and function of ecosystems by influencing
         both the density and traits of their hosts. Such changes in ecosystems are p
         articularly likely when the host is a predator that mediates the dynamics of
          trophic cascades. Here, we experimentally tested how parasite load of a sma
         ll predatory fish, the threespine stickleback, can affect the occurrence and
          strength of trophic cascades and ecosystem functioning. In a factorial meso
         cosm experiment, we manipulated the density of stickleback (low vs. high), a
         nd the level of parasite load (natural vs. reduced). In addition, we used tw
         o stickleback populations from different lineages: an eastern European linea
         ge with a more pelagic phenotype (Lake Constance) and a western European lin
         eage with a more benthic phenotype (Lake Geneva). We found that stickleback
         caused trophic cascades in the pelagic but not the benthic food chain. Evide
         nce for pelagic trophic cascades was stronger in treatments where parasite l
         oad of stickleback was reduced with an antihelmintic medication, and where f
         ish originated from Lake Constance (i.e., the more pelagic lineage). A struc
         tural equation model revealed that differences in stickleback lineage and p
         arasite load were most likely to impact trophic cascades via changes in the
         composition, rather than overall biomass, of zooplankton communities. Overal
         l, our results provide experimental evidence that parasites of predators can
          influence the cascading effects of fish on lower trophic levels with conseq
         uences on ecosystem functioning.

         ss about the importance of distinguishing different movement patterns for un
         derstanding their specific impact on animal ecology and evolution. One speci
         fic form of movement is nomadism, where animals move between habitats in an
         arrhythmic fashion. Although not yet described in detail for freshwater fish
         , nomadism between lakes within drainage systems could affect local lake foo
         d webs in an otherwise unpredictable fashion. In this study, we used passive
          telemetry to describe inter‐lake movements of 1,280 individually tagged a
         dult benthivorous bream (<em>Abramis brama</em>) over nine contiguous years
         in a drainage system with two paired lakes. The movements can best be descri
         bed as partial nomadism, where a part of the population is neither resident
         nor migratory, but instead moves between lakes in a variable, arrhythmic fas
         hion, often with long residency in one lake before moving to the other. We f
         ound extensive between‐year variation in the proportion and direction of b
         ream moving, with higher movement propensity being partly associated with lo
         wer somatic condition. Notably, movements out of lakes were significantly mo
         re in direction of the neighbouring lake than away from the paired lakes, su
         ggesting that at least direction was not random. Since bream are important e
         cosystem engineers, fluctuating densities of adult bream could affect ecolog
         ical stability in lakes. Our study suggests that fish populations in interco
         nnected lakes within drainages should not be treated as isolated units, and
         we discuss this in relation to lake ecology and the importance for lake ecos
         ystem management.

' (139 chars) description => protected'Although the majority of cichlid diversity occurs in the African Great Lakes

          Interspecific hybridization has been suggested to facilitate the evolution
         of ecological novelty, and hence the invasion of new niches and adaptive rad
         iation when ecological opportunity is present beyond the parental species ni
         ches. On the other hand, hybrids between two ecologically divergent species
         may perform less well than parental species in their respective niches becau
         se hybrids would be intermediate in performance in both niches. The evolutio
         nary consequences of hybridization may hence be context-dependent, depending
          on whether ecological opportunities, beyond those of the parental species,
         do or do not exist. Surprisingly, these complementary predictions may never
         have been tested in the same experiment in animals. To do so, we investigate
          if hybrids between ecologically distinct cichlid species perform less well
         than the parental species when feeding on food either parent is adapted to,
         and if the same hybrids perform better than their parents when feeding on fo
         od none of the species are adapted to. We generated two first-generation hyb
         rid crosses between species of African cichlids. In feeding efficiency exper
         iments we measured the performance of hybrids and parental species on food t
         ypes representing both parental species niches and additional ‘novel’ ni
         ches, not used by either of the parental species but by other species in the
          African cichlid radiations. We found that hybrids can have higher feeding e
         fficiencies on the 'novel' food types but typically have lower efficiencies
         on parental food types when compared to parental species. This suggests that
          hybridization can generate functional variation that can be of ecological r
         elevance allowing the access to resources outside of either parental species
          niche. Hence, we provide support for the hypothesis of ecological context-d
         ependency of the evolutionary impact of interspecific hybridization.

' (83 chars) description => protected'Removal of cyprinid fish is a widely used biomanipulation tool to transform
         turbid shallow eutrophic lakes in north temperate regions into a clear water
          state. We here evaluate the removal of cyprinids from streams as a suppleme
         nt to lake fishing. Since cyprinids often aggregate in high densities in lak
         e inlet/outlet streams during winter migration, removal of fish in this spac
         e-confined habitat may be cost-efficient as compared to fish removal in the
         lake habitat. In two consecutive years, we annually removed up to 35% of the
          dominant cyprinids from an inlet stream to a lake and argue that this could
          easily be increased with a more targeted fishing effort. Concurrently, we m
         onitored species- and length-specific variation in migration propensity, to
         explore how this relates to efficient fish removal. Smaller planktivores gen
         erally had a much higher migratory propensity than larger benthivores. Hence
         , stream fishing specifically targets species and size groups that are less
         efficiently controlled with traditional lake fishing methods. As a rule of t

' (138 chars) description => protected'There is increasing evidence that phenotypic variation can strongly impact c
         ommunity structure and ecosystem functions. Alewife <i>Alosa pseudoharengus<
         /i> is a planktivorous fish species that strongly impact lake ecosystems. It
          has previously been demonstrated that phenotypic variation related to diffe
         rences in life history among landlocked and anadromous alewife populations a
         lters the strength of interactions with other species, potentially modifying
          its role in the community. The migration between freshwater and marine ecos
         ystems by anadromous alewife creates seasonal differences in alewife densiti
         es, which causes lake zooplankton communities to alternate between large-bod
         y size and higher densities in the spring, and small-body size and low densi
         ties in the summer and fall. In lakes with resident (landlocked) alewife, pr
         edation from alewife modifies the zooplankton community to having low zoopla
         nkton densities and mainly small-bodied zooplankton year-round. The strong e
         ffects of phenotypic variation in alewife on zooplankton may be important fo
         r coexisting species that rely on zooplankton as a resource. Here we use est
         imates of growth, and direct diet and stable isotope analyses to ask if the
         presence- and phenotypic variation of alewife alters the ontogenetic traject
         ory of young-of-the-year (YOY) largemouth bass <i>Micropterus salmoides</i>,
          which depend on zooplankton in the early life stages. We found that both th
         e presence- and phenotypic variation of alewife affects growth, trophic posi
         tion, and diet of largemouth bass. YOY largemouth bass from lakes without al
         ewife grew faster, switched to piscivory earlier, and reached higher trophic
          positions than in alewife lakes. In lakes with landlocked alewife largemout
         h bass grew slower and obtained a lower trophic position than those in lakes
          with anadromous alewife. These divergences can be explained by the strong e

         nts of macroevolution is however limited to two main models: Brownian motion
          and the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, plus some of their extensions. Here,
         we present a very general model for inferring the dynamics of quantitative c

         apes over which quantitative traits evolve and, more importantly, we detail
         how it can be fitted to empirical data. Using simulations, we show that the

' (82 chars) description => protected'Genomic datasets continue to increase in number due to the ease of productio
         n for a wider selection of species including non-model organisms. For many o
         f these species, especially those with large or polyploid genomes, highly co
         ntiguous and well-annotated genomes are still rare due to the complexity and
          cost involved in their assembly. As a result, a common starting point for g
         enomic work in non-model species is the production of a linkage map. Dense l
         inkage maps facilitate the analysis of genomic data in a variety of ways, fr
         om broad scale observations regarding genome structure e.g. chromosome numbe
         r and type or sex-related structural differences, to fine scale patterns e.g
         . recombination rate variation and co-localization of differentiated regions
         . Here we present both sex-averaged and sex-specific linkage maps for <em>Co

         . lavaretus</em> spp. complex), containing 5395 single nucleotide polymorphi
         sm (SNP) loci across 40 linkage groups to facilitate future investigation in
         to the genomic basis of whitefish adaptation and speciation. The map was pro
         duced using restriction-site associated digestion (RAD) sequencing data from

         o the lake. We describe two different modes of speciation that occurred in t

         . Reproductive isolation by assortative mating is suggested by significant d

         g two temperatures: control (present seawater summer temperature) and elevat
         ed temperature (+3 °C, projected seawater temperature anomaly for 2100). Mu
         scle samples were collected weekly to quantify several biomarkers of: i) mac
         romolecular damage (protein unfolding and denaturation, and lipid peroxidati
         on), ii) reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavengers (antioxidant enzymes), and
          iii) body condition (energy reserves and body mass). These biomarkers were
         combined in integrated biomarker response (IBR) indices, either in three sep
         arate stress response categories (as previously defined) or in a unique comb
         ined analysis of overall physiological performance. Both approaches suggest
         that temperature affected IBRs, with increasing temperatures significantly i
         mpairing the overall health of individuals. Biomarkers of lower levels of bi
         ological organization indicated deleterious effects of temperature, whereas
         biomarkers of higher levels suggested maintenance of performance after chron
         ic exposure. Overall indices combining the estimates of biomarkers across le
         vels of biological organization are essential to predict the vulnerability o

' (110 chars) description => protected'The frequent occurrence of adaptive radiations on oceanic islands and in lak
         es is often attributed to ecological opportunity resulting from release from
          competition where arrival order among lineages predicts which lineage radia
         tes. This <em>priority effect</em> occurs when the lineage that arrives firs
         t expands its niche breadth and diversifies into a set of ecological special
         ists with associated monopolization of the resources. Later-arriving species
          do not experience ecological opportunity and do not radiate. While theoreti
         cal support and evidence from microbial experiments for priority effects are
          strong, empirical evidence in nature is difficult to obtain. Lake Victoria
         (LV) is home to an exceptional adaptive radiation of haplochromine cichlid f
         ishes, where 20 trophic guilds and several hundred species emerged in just 1
         5 000 years, the age of the modern lake that was preceded by a complete desi
         ccation lasting several thousand years. However, while about 50 other lineag
         es of teleost fish also have established populations in the lake, none of th
         em has produced more than two species and most of them did not speciate at a
         ll. Here, we test if the ancestors of the haplochromine radiation indeed arr
         ived prior to the most competent potential competitors, 'tilapias' and cypri
         nids, both of which have made rapid radiations in other African lakes. We as
         sess LV sediment core intervals from just before the desiccation and just af
         ter refilling for the presence of fossil fish teeth. We show that all three
         lineages were present when modern LV began to fill with water. We conclude t
         hat the haplochromines' extraordinary radiation unfolded in the presence of
         potentially competing lineages and cannot be attributed to a simple priority
          effect.

' (103 chars) description => protected'Ring species are groups of organisms that dispersed along a ring-shaped regi
         on in such a way that the two ends of the population that meet after many ge
         nerations are reproductively isolated. They provide a rare opportunity to un
         derstand the role of spatial structuring in speciation. Here, we simulate th
         e evolution of ring species assuming that individuals become sexually isolat
         ed if the genetic distance between them is above a certain threshold. The mo
         del incorporates two forms of dispersal limitation: exogenous geographic bar
         riers that limit the population range and endogenous barriers that result in
          genetic structuring within the population range. As expected, species' prop
         erties that reduce gene flow within the population range facilitate the evol
         ution of reproductive isolation and ring species formation. However, if popu
         lations are confined to narrow ranges by geographic barriers, ring species f
         ormation increases when local mating is less spatially restricted. Ring spec
         ies are most likely to form if a population expands while confined to a quas
         i-unidimensional range but preserving high mobility in the direction of the
         range expansion. These conditions are unlikely to be met or persist in real
         populations and may explain why ring species are rare.

         the organization of life. Variation in the position and intensity of links w

         vestigate laboratory hybrids between a pair of sympatric Lake Victoria cichl
         id fish species that appear to have recently evolved from a hybrid populatio
         n between similar predecessor species. The species demonstrate strong assort
         ative mating in the laboratory, associated with divergent male breeding colo

         g DNA-based paternity testing, that the strong female mate preferences among
          males of the two species are fully recovered in a large fraction of their F
         2 hybrid generation. Individual hybrid females often demonstrated consistent
          preferences in multiple mate choice trials (more than or equal to five) acr
         oss a year or more. This result suggests that female mate preference is infl
         uenced by relatively few major genes or genomic regions. These preferences w
         ere not changed by experience of a successful spawning event with a male of
         the non-preferred species in a no-choice single-male trial. We found no evid

         ve been imprinted on their mothers. We discuss this nearly Mendelian inherit

' (132 chars) description => protected'Understanding the consequences of species loss in complex ecological communi
         ties is one of the great challenges in current biodiversity research. For a
         long time, this topic has been addressed by traditional biodiversity experim
         ents. Most of these approaches treat species as trait-free, taxonomic units
         characterizing communities only by species number without accounting for spe
         cies traits. However, extinctions do not occur at random as there is a clear
          correlation between extinction risk and species traits. In this review, we
         assume that large species will be most threatened by extinction and use nove
         l allometric and size-spectrum concepts that include body mass as a primary
         species trait at the levels of populations and individuals, respectively, to
          re-assess three classic debates on the relationships between biodiversity a
         nd (<em>i</em>) food-web structural complexity, (<em>ii</em>) community dyna
         mic stability, and (<em>iii</em>) ecosystem functioning. Contrasting current
          expectations, size-structured approaches suggest that the loss of large spe
         cies, that typically exploit most resource species, may lead to future food
         webs that are less interwoven and more structured by chains of interactions
         and compartments. The disruption of natural body-mass distributions maintain
         ing food-web stability may trigger avalanches of secondary extinctions and s
         trong trophic cascades with expected knock-on effects on the functionality o
         f the ecosystems. Therefore, we argue that it is crucial to take into accoun
         t body size as a species trait when analysing the consequences of biodiversi
         ty loss for natural ecosystems. Applying size-structured approaches provides
          an integrative ecological concept that enables a better understanding of ea
         ch species' unique role across communities and the causes and consequences o

          19 islands of differentiation resisting gene flow in sympatry, all were als

         idly and might influence adaptive population divergence [1, 2]. In a common
         garden experiment in aquatic mesocosms, we found that adult stickleback from
          a recently diverged pair of lake and stream populations had contrasting eff
         ects on ecosystem metrics. These modifications were caused by both genetic a
         nd plastic differences between populations and were sometimes comparable in
         magnitude to those caused by the presence/absence of stickleback. Lake and s
         tream fish differentially affected the biomass of zooplankton and phytoplank
         ton, the concentration of phosphorus, and the abundance of several prey (e.g
         ., copepods) and non-prey (e.g., cyanobacteria) species. The adult-mediated
         effects on mesocosm ecosystems influenced the survival and growth of a subse
         quent generation of juvenile stickleback reared in the same mesocosms. The p
         rior presence of adults decreased the overall growth rate of juveniles, and
         the prior presence of stream adults lowered overall juvenile survival. Among
          the survivors, lake juveniles grew faster than co-occurring stream juvenile
         s, except in mesocosm ecosystems previously modified by adult lake fish that
          were reared on plankton. Overall, our results provide evidence for reciproc
         al interactions between ecosystem dynamics and evolutionary change (i.e., e
         co-evolutionary feedbacks) in the early stages of adaptive population diverg
         ence.

         In older taxa it is increasingly difficult to distinguish what happened duri

          the genus <I>Pundamilia</I> encompass a complex of young species and polymo
         rphic populations. One <I>Pundamilia</I> species pair, <I>P. pundamilia</I>
         and <I>P. nyererei</I>, is particularly well-suited to study speciation beca
         use sympatric population pairs occur with different levels of phenotypic dif
         ferentiation and reproductive isolation at different rocky islands within th
         e lake. Genetic distances between allopatric island populations of the same
         nominal species often exceed those between the sympatric species. It thus re
         mained unresolved whether speciation into <I>P. nyererei</I> and <I>P. punda

         pecific gene flow in local sympatry, or if the species pair arose repeatedly
          by parallel speciation. Here we use genomic data and demographic modeling t
         o test these alternative evolutionary scenarios. We demonstrate that gene fl
         ow plays a strong role in shaping the observed patterns of genetic similarit

         nts in lake ecosystems.<br />2. Here, we explored the trophic structure of a
          large, oligotrophic subarctic lake and assessed the trophic niche use and p
         otential ecosystem-wide consequences of two introduced salmonid species: pis
         civorous lake trout (<em>Salvelinus namaycush</em>) and zooplanktivorous ven
         dace (<em>Coregonus albula</em>). We used a combination of diet, stable isot
         ope and total mercury concentration data to test the hypotheses that the int
         roduced fishes: (i) show partial niche overlap with the native fish communit
         y; (ii) increase total isotopic food-web size and dietary linkages by increa
         sing the diversity of niches present within the system, in comparison to ana
         lyses where only the native species were considered; and (iii) have differin
         g mercury bioaccumulation rates from native species due to differences in tr
         ophic ecology and habitat preferences, being higher in pelagic than in litt

          species were extensive, with evidence of reciprocal predation, resource com
         petition and possible competitive exclusion apparent. Despite partial niche
         overlap with native species, the inclusion of introduced species in our anal

' (103 chars) description => protected'Managed adaptation could reduce the risks of climate change to the world's e

' (87 chars) description => protected'Textbook examples of adaptive radiation often show rapid morphological chang
         es in response to environmental perturbations. East Africa's Lake Victoria,
         famous for its stunning adaptive radiation of cichlids, has suffered from hu
         man-induced eutrophication over the past decades. This cultural eutrophicati
         on is thought to be partly responsible for the dramatically reduced cichlid
         biodiversity, but climatic variability in itself might also have contributed
          to the eutrophication which resulted in low oxygen levels and decreased wat
         er transparency. To determine how recent environmental changes have influenc
         ed the lake and its cichlids over the past 50 years, we gathered environmen
         tal and meteorological variables and compared these with gill surface area o
         f four cichlid species. We found that during the period of severe eutrophica
         tion and temperature increase (1980s), reduced wind speeds coincided with a
         reduction in oxygen levels and a decrease in both water temperature and tran
         sparency. The gill surface area in three out of the four cichlid species inc
         reased during this period which is consistent with adaptive change in respon
         se to increased hypoxia. During the 2000s, wind speeds, oxygen levels, water
          transparency and water temperature increased again, while cichlid gill surf
         ace area decreased. Our results imply that climatic changes and especially w
         ind speed and direction might play a crucial role in tropical lake dynamics.
          The changes in Lake Victoria's water quality coincide with fluctuations in
         cichlid gill surface area, suggesting that these fish can respond rapidly to
          environmental perturbations, but also that climatic variability, together w
         ith continued eutrophication, might be detrimental to the lake's cichlid bio
         diversity.

' (121 chars) description => protected'The European standard for gillnet sampling to characterize lake fish communi

' (112 chars) description => protected'Background: Due to increasing global change, the rate of hybridization seems
          to be increasing.<br />Question: Is hybridization adding problems or soluti
         ons to the effects of global change on biodiversity?<br />Methods: We divide
         d ourselves into two independent groups. Each group listed topics it thought
          appropriate. We then compared and combined the lists, extracting a natural
         structure of the topics. We next divided ourselves into three specialized su
         bgroups and discussed the topics in more depth. In a final plenary meeting,
         we brought ideas together, discussed open topics, identified consensus or di
         fferences of opinion, and prepared a preliminary report.<br />Results: Our l
         ists of topics were highly similar, suggesting that we missed only a few top
         ics. We agreed that it is important to consider hybridization in both its ge
         netic and ecological contexts and with explicit attention paid to phylogenet
         ic and biogeographic history. It is also necessary to distinguish between un
         derlying processes and resulting consequences. Knowledge of the consequences
          of hybridization is more developed in genetics than in ecology. We suggest
         that hybridization adds problems (loss of biodiversity, ecosystem degradatio
         n) as well as solutions (new adaptive variation, ecosystem robustness) to gl
         obal change challenges. Which of these applies in a given case depends on it
         s evolutionary and environmental context, and on the objectives of conservat
         ion management. We provide five groups of questions to stimulate further res
         earch.

' (81 chars) description => protected'1. Migration is a widespread phenomenon, with powerful ecological and evolut
         ionary consequences. Morphological adaptations to reduce the energetic costs
          associated with migratory transport are commonly documented for migratory s
         pecies. However, few studies have investigated whether variation in body mor
         phology can be explained by variation in migratory strategy within a species
         .<BR/>2. We address this question in roach <I>Rutilus rutilus</I>, a partial
         ly migratory freshwater fish that migrates from lakes into streams during wi
         nter. We both compare body shape between populations that differ in migrator
         y opportunity (open vs. closed lakes), and between individuals from a single
          population that vary in migratory propensity (migrants and residents from a
          partially migratory population). Following hydrodynamic theory, we posit th
         at migrants should have a more shallow body depth, to reduce the costs assoc
         iated with migrating into streams with higher flow conditions than the lakes
          the residents occupy all year round.<BR/>3. We find evidence both across an
         d within populations to support our prediction, with individuals from open l
         akes and migrants from the partially migratory population having a more slen
         der, shallow-bodied morphology than fish from closed lakes and all-year resi
         dents.<BR/>4. Our data suggest that a shallow body morphology is beneficial
         to migratory individuals and our study is one of the first to link migratory
          strategy and intraspecific variation in body shape.

' (77 chars) description => protected'The role of stochasticity in evolutionary genetics has long been debated. To
          date, however, the potential roles of non-genetic traits in evolutionary pr
         ocesses have been largely neglected. In molecular biology, growing evidence
         suggests that stochasticity in gene expression (SGE) is common and that SGE
         has major impacts on phenotypes and fitness. Here, we provide a general over
         view of the potential effects of SGE on population genetic parameters, argui
         ng that SGE can indeed have a profound effect on evolutionary processes. Our
          analyses suggest that SGE potentially alters the fate of mutations by influ
         encing effective population size and fixation probability. In addition, a ge
         netic control of SGE magnitude could evolve under certain conditions, if the
          fitness of the less-fit individual increases due to SGE and environmental f
         luctuation. Although empirical evidence for our arguments is yet to come, me

         flow-on effects for some lower trophic groups, in which case protection from
          fishing should result in suppression of lower trophic groups as predator po
         pulations recover. We tested this by assessing differences in the trophic st
         ructure of reef fish communities associated with 79 MPAs and open-access sit
         es worldwide, using a standardised quantitative dataset on reef fish communi
         ty structure. The biomass of all major trophic groups (higher carnivores, be
         nthic carnivores, planktivores and herbivores) was significantly greater (by
          40% – 200%) in effective no-take MPAs relative to fished open-access area
         s. This effect was most pronounced for individuals in large size classes, bu
         t with no size class of any trophic group showing signs of depressed biomass
          in MPAs, as predicted from higher predator abundance. Thus, greater biomass
          in effective MPAs implies that exploitation on shallow rocky and coral reef
         s negatively affects biomass of all fish trophic groups and size classes. Th
         ese direct effects of fishing on trophic structure appear stronger than any
         top down effects on lower trophic levels that would be imposed by intact pre
         dator populations. We propose that exploitation affects fish assemblages at
         all trophic levels, and that local ecosystem function is generally modified
         by fishing.

         atic ecological changes in Lake Victoria provide a unique opportunity to stu
         dy environmental effects on cichlid morphology. This study shows how four ha
         plochromine cichlids adapted their premaxilla to a changed diet over the pas
         t 30 years. Directly after the diet change toward larger and faster prey in
         the late 1980s, the premaxilla (upper jaw) changed in a way that is in agree
         ment with a more food manipulating feeding style. During the 2000s, two zoop
         lanktivorous species showed a reversal of morphological changes after return
         ing to their original diet, whereas two other species showed no reversal of
         diet and morphology. These rapid changes indicate a potential for extremely
         fast adaptive responses to environmental fluctuations, which are likely infl
         icted by competition release and increase, and might have a bearing on the a
         bility of haplochromines to cope with environmental changes. These responses
          could be due to rapid genetic change or phenotypic plasticity, for which th
         ere is ample evidence in cichlid fish structures associated with food captur
         e and processing. These versatile adaptive responses are likely to have cont
         ributed to the fast adaptive radiation of haplochromines.

' (79 chars) description => protected'Extant terrestrial biodiversity arguably is driven by the evolutionary succe
         ss of angiosperm plants, but the evolutionary mechanisms and timescales of a
         ngiosperm-dependent radiations remain poorly understood. The Scarabaeoidea i
         s a diverse lineage of predominantly plant- and dung-feeding beetles. Here,
         we present a phylogenetic analysis of Scarabaeoidea based on four DNA marker
         s for a taxonomically comprehensive set of specimens and link it to recently
          described fossil evidence. The phylogeny strongly supports multiple origins
          of coprophagy, phytophagy and anthophagy. The ingroup-based fossil calibrat
         ion of the tree widely confirmed a Jurassic origin of the Scarabaeoidea crow
         n group. The crown groups of phytophagous lineages began to radiate first (P
         leurostict scarabs: 108 Ma; Glaphyridae between 101 Ma), followed by the lat
         er diversification of coprophagous lineages (crown-group age Scarabaeinae: 7
         6 Ma; Aphodiinae: 50 Ma). Pollen feeding arose even later, at maximally 62 M
         a in the oldest anthophagous lineage. The clear time lag between the origins
          of herbivores and coprophages suggests an evolutionary path driven by the a
         ngiosperms that first favoured the herbivore fauna (mammals and insects) fol
         lowed by the secondary radiation of the dung feeders. This finding makes it
         less likely that extant dung beetle lineages initially fed on dinosaur excre
         ments, as often hypothesized.

          there is a positive relationship between condition and the probability of m

' (162 chars) description => protected'Aim. The Neotropical parrots (Arini) are an unusually diverse group which co
         lonized South America in the Oligocene. The newly invaded Neotropics may hav
         e functioned as an underused adaptive zone and provided novel ecological opp
         ortunities that facilitated diversification. Alternatively, diversification
         may have been driven by ecological changes caused by Andean uplift and/or cl
         imate change from the Miocene onwards. Our aim was to find out whether Arini
          diversified in a classical adaptive radiation after their colonization of S

' (90 chars) description => protected'Contemporary insights from evolutionary ecology suggest that population dive

         ons are situated in communities that are unconnected to similar communities
         within a shared region. Recent work from metacommunity ecology suggests that
          species dispersal among communities can also influence species diversity an

' (214 chars) description => protected'Background: Speciation reversal: the erosion of species differentiation via
         an increase in introgressive hybridization due to the weakening of previousl
         y divergent selection regimes, is thought to be an important, yet poorly und
         erstood, driver of biodiversity loss. Our study system, the Alpine whitefish
          (<I>Coregonus</I> spp.) species complex is a classic example of a recent po
         stglacial adaptive radiation: forming an array of endemic lake flocks, with
         the independent origination of similar ecotypes among flocks. However, many
         of the lakes of the Alpine radiation have been seriously impacted by anthrop
         ogenic nutrient enrichment, resulting in a collapse in neutral genetic and p
         henotypic differentiation within the most polluted lakes. Here we investigat
         e the effects of eutrophication on the selective forces that have shaped thi
         s radiation, using population genomics. We studied eight sympatric species a
         ssemblages belonging to five independent parallel adaptive radiations, and o
         ne species pair in secondary contact. We used AFLP markers, and applied FST
         outlier (BAYESCAN, DFDIST) and logistic regression analyses (MATSAM), to ide
         ntify candidate regions for disruptive selection in the genome and their ass
         ociations with adaptive traits within each lake flock. The number of outlier

         species, connectivity influences various key aspects of population biology,
         ranging from population persistence to genetic structure and diversity. Here
         , we investigated differences in small-scale connectivity in terms of gene f
         low between populations of two ecologically important invertebrates with con
         trasting dispersal-related traits: an amphipod (<em>Gammarus fossarum</em>)
         with a purely aquatic life cycle and a mayfly (<em>Baetis rhodani</em>) with
          a terrestrial adult stage.<br />2. We used highly polymorphic markers to es
         timate genetic differentiation between populations of both species within a
         Swiss pre-alpine catchment and compared these results to the broader-scale g
         enetic structure within the Rhine drainage. Landscape genetic approaches wer
         e used to test for correlations of genetic and geographical structures and i
         n-stream barrier effects.<br />3. We found overall very weak genetic structu
         re in populations of <em>B. rhodani</em>. In contrast, <em>G. fossarum</em>
         showed strong genetic differentiation, even at spatial scales of a few kilom
         etres, and a clear pattern of isolation by distance. Genetic diversity decre
         ased from downstream towards upstream populations of <em>G. fossarum,</em> s
         uggesting asymmetric gene flow. Correlation of genetic structure with landsc
         ape topography was more pronounced in the amphipod. Our study also indicates
          that <em>G. fossarum</em> might be capable of dispersing overland in headwa
         ter regions and of crossing small in-stream barriers.<br />4. We speculate t
         hat differences in dispersal capacity but also habitat specialisation and po
         tentially the extent of local adaptation could be responsible for the differ
         ences in genetic differentiation found between the two species. These result
         s highlight the importance of taking into account dispersal-related traits w

         s following the last glacial retreat and have undergone rapid speciation and
          adaptive radiation. Up to six species have been shown to coexist in some la

         mulation in sympatric whitefish species from seven Swiss lakes to determine
         if ecological divergence has led to different rates of MeHg bioaccumulation.
          In four of seven lakes, sympatric species had distinctly different MeHg lev
         els, which varied by up to a factor of two between species. Generally, speci
         es with greater MeHg levels were smaller in body size and planktivorous, and
          species with lower MeHg were larger and benthivorous. While modest disparit
         ies in trophic position between species might be expected a priori to explai
         n the divergence in MeHg, δ<SUP>15</SUP>N of bulk tissue did not correlate
         with fish MeHg in five of seven lakes. Results of a nested ANCOVA analysis a
         cross all lakes indicated that only two factors (species, lake) explained su
         bstantial portions of the variance, with species accounting for more varianc
         e (52 %) than inter-lake differences (32 %). We suggest that differences in
         MeHg accumulation were likely caused by diverging metabolic traits between s
         pecies, such as differences in energy partitioning between anabolism and cat
         abolism, potentially interacting with species-specific prey resource utiliza

         in fish can lead to divergent MeHg accumulation patterns.

         , few have focused on the consequences of partial migration on trophic dynam

         cyprinid fish from lakes to predation refuges in streams during winter and t
         hat this migration in combination with temperature affects the characteristi
         cs and phenology of lower trophic levels in the lake ecosystem. Specifically
         , our six-year study showed that the proportion of fish migrating was positi
         vely related to lake temperature during the pre-migration growth period, i.e
         . during summer. Migration from the lake occurred later when autumn water te
         mperatures were high, and timing of return migration to the lake occurred ea
         rlier at higher spring water temperatures. Moreover, the winter mean size of
          zooplankton in the lake increased with the proportion of fish being away fr
         om the lake, likely as a consequence of decreased predation pressure. Peak b
         iomass of phytoplankton in spring occurred earlier at higher spring water te
         mperatures and with less fish being away from the lake. Accordingly, peak zo
         oplankton biomass occurred earlier at higher spring water temperature, but r
         elatively later if less fish were away from the lake. Hence, the time betwee
         n phyto- and zooplankton peaks depended only on the amount of fish being awa
         y from the lake, and not on temperature. The intensity of fish migration the
         reby had a major effect on plankton spring dynamics. These results significa
         ntly contribute to our understanding of the interplay between partial migrat

' (85 chars) description => protected'Trophic niche divergence is considered to be a major process by which specie

         In reality, however, the niche use may be more complex and individual fideli
         ty to a niche may be variable both between and within populations. In order
         to study this complexity, relative simple systems with few species are neede

         of brown trout (<I>Salmo trutta</I>) in 11 species-poor Faroese lakes by com
         paring relative abundance, stable isotope ratios and diet in multiple habita
         ts. In the presence of three-spined sticklebacks (<I>Gasterosteus aculeatus<
         /I>), a higher proportion of the trout population was found in the pelagic h
         abitat, and trout in general relied on a more pelagic diet base as compared
         to trout living in allopatry or in sympatry with Arctic charr (<I>Salvelinus
          alpinus</I>). Diet analyses revealed, however, that niche-segregation may b
         e more complex than described on a one-dimensional pelagic-littoral axis. Tr

         sticklebacks a less benthic diet as compared to trout living in allopatry or
          in sympatry with charr. Furthermore, we found individual habitat specializa

' (96 chars) description => protected'Background: The European trout (<I>Salmo trutta</I> species complex) occurs
         across a very wide altitudinal range from lowland rivers to alpine streams.
         Historically, the major European river systems contained different, evolutio
         narily distinct trout lineages, and some of this genetic diversity has persi
         sted in spite of extensive human-mediated translocations. We used AFLP-based
          genome scans to investigate the extent of potentially adaptive divergence a
         mong major drainages and along altitudinal gradients replicated in several r
         ivers.<BR/> Results: The proportion of loci showing evidence of divergent se
         lection was larger between drainages than along altitudinal transects within
          drainages. This suggests divergent selection is stronger between drainages,
          or adaptive divergence is constrained by gene flow among populations within
          drainages, although the latter could not be confirmed at a more local scale
         . Still, altitudinal divergence occurred and, at approximately 2% of the mar
         kers, parallel changes of the AFLP band frequencies with altitude were obser
         ved suggesting that altitude may well be an important source of divergent se
         lection within rivers.<BR/> Conclusions: Our results indicate that adaptive
         genetic divergence is common both between major European river systems and a
         long altitudinal gradients within drainages. Alpine trout appear to be a pro
         mising model system to investigate the relative roles of divergent selection
          and gene flow in promoting or preventing adaptation to climate gradients.

' (91 chars) description => protected'Question: How does divergent natural selection lead to divergence in mating
         traits and the evolution of reproductive isolation?<BR/>Background: Ecologic
         al speciation of non-allopatric taxa usually requires the evolution of an as
         sociation between selective mating and the traits underlying ecological adap
         tation. ‘Magic traits’ affect both ecological fitness and assortative ma
         ting and may therefore mediate rapid evolution of reproductive isolation.<BR
         />Problem: When assortative mating is mediated by separate preferences and c
         ues, as opposed to being based on trait similarity (e.g. assortment by body
         size or habitat), pre-mating reproductive isolation between non-allopatric p
         opulations often requires divergence in both mating preferences and mating c
         ues. Yet, most proposed cases of magic trait speciation rely on observation
         of divergent mating cues alone, leaving the consequences for reproductive is
         olation uncertain.<BR/>Solution: We propose that a distinction should be mad
         e between mating cues and mating preferences when documenting divergent natu
         ral selection on mating traits. We argue that immediate effects of ecologica
         l adaptation on mating preferences, through direct selection or through plei
         otropy, will drive divergence in both preferences and traits much more predi
         ctably than ecological selection on mating cues. The distinction between ‘
         magic cues’ and ‘magic preferences’ is critical for evaluating the evo
         lutionary consequences of divergent selection on mating traits, and implies
         a need for increased research effort into documenting variation in mating pr
         eferences in diverging taxa.

         . Across the radiations, the magnitude of eutrophication explains the patter

          remaining species. We argue that extinction by speciation reversal may be m

          DNA (RAD) markers to infer phylogenetic relationships among 16 species of c
         ichlid fishes from a single rocky island community within Lake Victoria's ci
         chlid adaptive radiation. Previous attempts at sequence-based phylogenetic a
         nalyses in Victoria cichlids have shown extensive sharing of genetic variati
         on among species and no resolution of species or higher-level relationships.
          These patterns have generally been attributed to the very recent origin (<1
         5 000 years) of the radiation, and ongoing hybridization between species. We
          show that as we increase the amount of sequence data used in phylogenetic a
         nalyses, we produce phylogenetic trees with unprecedented resolution for thi
         s group. In trees derived from our largest data supermatrices (3 to >5.8 mil
         lion base pairs in width), species are reciprocally monophyletic with high b
         ootstrap support, and the majority of internal branches on the tree have hig
         h support. Given the difficulty of the phylogenetic problem that the Lake Vi

          and other ectothermic animals. However, temperature effects on organisms ma

         ) changes of winter temperatures predicted by the Intergovernmental Panel on
          Climate Change (IPCC), under both natural and experimental conditions. This
          was investigated in combination with the effects of food availability. Fina
         lly, we explored the potential for a correlation between lake temperature an
         d resource levels for planktivorous fish, i.e., zooplankton biomass, during
         five consecutive winters in a south Swedish lake. We show that small increas
         es in temperature (+2°C) affected fish biomass loss in both presence and ab
         sence of food, but negatively and positively respectively. Temperature alone
          explained only a minor part of the variation when food availability was not
          taken into account. In contrast to other studies, lipid analyses of experim

' (79 chars) description => protected'Numerous evolutionary studies have sought to explain the distribution of div
         ersity across the limbs of the tree of life. At the same time, ecological st
         udies have sought to explain differences in diversity and relative abundance
          within and among ecological communities. Traditionally, these patterns have
          been considered separately, but models that consider processes operating at
          the level of individuals, such as neutral biodiversity theory (NBT), can pr
         ovide a link between them. Here, we compare evolutionary dynamics across a s
         uite of NBT models. We show that NBT can yield phylogenetic tree topologies
         with imbalance closely resembling empirical observations. In general, metaco
         mmunities that exhibit greater disparity in abundance are characterized by m
         ore imbalanced phylogenetic trees. However, NBT fails to capture the tempo o

' (77 chars) description => protected'Releasing captive-bred fish into natural environments (stocking) is common i

         m consequences of recurrent stocking and its influence on natural population
         s. In fact, there are growing concerns that genetically maladapted captive-b
         red fish can eventually reduce the abundance of natural population. In this
         study, we develop a simple model to quantitatively investigate the condition
          under which recurrent stocking has long-term effects on the natural populat

          is little or no contribution of recurrent stocking to the stock enhancement
          without a replacement of the wild gene pool by the captive-bred gene pool.
         The model further predicted that stocking of an intermediate level causes a
         reduction, rather than enhancement, of population size over the long term. T
         he population decline due to stocking was attributed to the fitness disadvan
         tage of captive-bred fish and strong overcompensation at recruitment stage.
         These results suggest that it would be difficult to simultaneously attain po

         bred fish have fitness disadvantage in the wild, although caution is needed
         when applying the predictions from the simplified model to a specific specie

         are confined only with heterospecific males. We generated F<sub>2</sub> hybr
         id males from a cross between a pair of closely related sympatric cichlid fi
         sh from Lake Malawi. Laboratory mate choice experiments using microsatellite
          paternity analysis demonstrated that F<sub>2</sub> hybrid males differed si
         gnificantly in their attractiveness to females of the two parental species,
         indicating heritable variation in traits involved in mate choice that may co
         ntribute to reproductive isolation between these species. We found no signif
         icant correlation between male mating success and any measurement of male co
         lour pattern. A simple quantitative genetic model of reproductive isolation
         suggests that there may be as few as two chromosomal regions controlling spe
         cies-specific attractiveness. We propose that adaptive radiation of Lake Mal
         awi cichlids could be facilitated by the presence of genes with major effect
         s on mate choice and reproductive isolation.

         a-specific communication, and its evolutionary consequences, has only recent
         ly started to receive research attention. A disruption of the sensory enviro
         nment is likely to impact communication, especially with respect to reproduc

         ms around the world are being threatened by a variety of environmental stres
         sors, causing dramatic losses of biodiversity and bringing urgency to the ne
         ed to understand how fish respond to rapid environmental changes. Here, we d

         , acoustic, electric) and explore the state of our knowledge of how complex
         systems respond to environmental stressors using fish as a model. By far the
          bulk of our understanding comes from research on visual communication in th

' (116 chars) description => protected'We explored the social and ecological outcomes associated with emergence of
         a management panacea designed to govern a stochastic renewable natural resou
         rce. To that end, we constructed a model of a coupled social-ecological syst
         em of recreational fisheries in which a manager supports naturally fluctuati
         ng stocks by stocking fish in response to harvest-driven satisfaction of res
         ource users. The realistic assumption of users remembering past harvest expe
         riences when exploiting a stochastically fluctuating fish population facilit
         ates the emergence of a stocking-based management panacea over time. The soc
         ial benefits of panacea formation involve dampening natural population fluct
         uations and generating stability of user satisfaction. It also maintains the
          resource but promotes the eventual replacement of wild fish by hatchery-des
         cended fish. Our analyses show this outcome is particularly likely when hatc
         hery-descended fish are reasonably fit (e.g., characterized by similar survi
         val relative to wild fish) and/or when natural recruitment of the wild popul
         ation is low (e.g., attributable to habitat deterioration), which leaves the
          wild population with little buffer against competition by stocked fish. The
          potential for release-based panacea formation is particularly likely under
         user-based management regimes and should be common in a range of social-ecol
         ogical systems (e.g., fisheries, forestry), whenever user groups are entitle
         d to engage in release or replanting strategies. The net result will be the
         preservation of a renewable resource through user-based incentives, but the
         once natural populations are likely to be altered and to host nonnative geno
         types. This risks other ecosystem services and the future of wild population

' (82 chars) description => protected'George Gaylord Simpson famously postulated that much of life's diversity ori

         pe in a diversity of animal clades to test a key model of adaptive radiation
         , in which initially rapid morphological evolution is followed by relative s
         tasis. We compared the fit of this model to both single selective peak and r

          most easily when mating preferences are directly linked to ecological trait
         s that are subject to divergent selection. Sensory adaptation can play a maj
         or role in this process, because selective mating is often mediated by sexua
         l signals: bright colours, complex song, pheromone blends and so on. When di
         vergent sensory adaptation affects the perception of such signals, mating pa
         tterns may change as an immediate consequence. Alternatively, mating prefere
         nces can diverge as a result of indirect effects: assortative mating may be
         promoted by selection against intermediate phenotypes that are maladapted to
          their (sensory) environment. For Lake Victoria cichlids, the visual environ

         gae, zoobenthos, and fish that occur in Alpine freshwaters. Benthic algae in
          Alpine waters are differentiated among particular regions of the Alps in re
         lation to geology, stream origin, and anthropogenic activity. Because of the

         . By possessing various morphological structures and physiological traits, m
         ost stream insects are adapted to the dynamic and cold aquatic habitat of al

         obenthos in surface waters, with Chironomidae being most common. Seasonality
          is a common feature of macroinvertebrate assemblages in glacial streams in
         the Swiss Alps. Two evolutionarily successful strategies in glacial streams
         are adaptation to unstable stream conditions during summer (summer species)
         or avoidance of these conditions (winter species). Only a few native fishes
         are able to colonize and inhabit Alpine waters. Over the last decades, non-n
         ative, cold stenothermic species have established self-reproducing populatio
         ns and appear well-adapted to the harsh environmental conditions in the Alps
         . The indigenous brown trout (<em>Salmo trutta fario</em> L.) is the most im

' (91 chars) description => protected'Sexual selection by female mating preference for male nuptial coloration has
          been suggested as a driving force in the rapid speciation of Lake Victoria
         cichlid fish. This process could have been facilitated or accelerated by gen
         etic associations between female preference loci and male coloration loci. P
         references, as well as coloration, are heritable traits and are probably det
         ermined by more than one gene. However, little is known about potential gene
         tic associations between these traits. In turbid water, we found a populatio
         n that is variable in male nuptial coloration from blue to yellow to red. Ma
         les at the extreme ends of the phenotype distribution resemble a reproductiv
         ely isolated species pair in clear water that has diverged into one species
         with blue-grey males and one species with bright red males. Females of the t
         urbid water population vary in mating preference coinciding with the male ph
         enotype distribution. For the current study, these females were mated to blu
         e males. We measured the coloration of the sires and male offspring. Parents
         -offspring regression showed that the sires did not affect male offspring co
         loration, which confirms earlier findings that the blue species breeds true.
          In contrast, male offspring coloration was determined by the identity of th
         e dams, which suggests that there is heritable variation in male color genes
          between females. However, we found that mating preferences of the dams were
          not correlated with male offspring coloration. Thus, there is no evidence f
         or strong genetic linkage between mating preference and the preferred trait
         in this population.

         mber of genes investigated on this subject is limited and the conclusions ar
         e mixed. To evaluate the possible heterogeneity in evolutionary rates betwee
         n annual and perennial plants at the genomic level, we investigated 85 nucle

         s using the genomic data from model plants including <I>Arabidopsis thaliana

         According to the cross-comparisons among the four species, 74-82% of the nuc

         was consistently found both in nonsynonymous sites and synonymous sites. Whi
         le a linear correlation of evolutionary rates in orthologous genes between s
         pecies was observed in nonsynonymous sites, the correlation was weak or invi

         pulations that independently evolved similar colours interbreed freely while
          more closely-related populations with different colours mate assortatively.
          We used microsatellite genotypes and mesh false-floor to determine paternit

         etween population pairs with similarly-coloured males too. This suggested th
         at assortative mating could be based on non-visual cues, so we further exami
         ned the sensory basis of assortative mating between two populations with dif

         tended to mask the distinctive male dorsal fin hues (blue v orange) of these

         ignals, may play an important role in mate choice and behavioural isolation
         in these and perhaps other African cichlid fish. Future speciation models ai

' (150 chars) description => protected'The rate at which different components of reproductive isolation accumulate

          East African haplochromine radiation. We then used multiple relaxed molecul

          We find that premating isolation accumulates fast initially but then change

         view, we summarize existing data on the fitness of hatchery fish in the wild
         , and we investigate the conditions under which rapid fitness declines can o

         , such rapid effects can be explained only when selection is very strong, bo

          are slower than those of younger males. Moreover, older males have larger b

' (89 chars) description => protected'Ecological expert knowledge is often based on qualitative rules consisting o
         f linguistic terms such as 'low', 'moderate' or 'high'. Since fuzzy systems
         transform these rules and terms into a mathematical framework, they allow im
         plementing this expert knowledge in ecological models. However, the developm
         ent of a reliable knowledge base is complex and time consuming. Recent resea
         rch has shown that complementing fuzzy systems by data-driven techniques can
          solve this knowledge acquisition bottleneck. In this paper, a heuristic nea
         rest ascent hill-climbing algorithm for rule base optimisation is applied to
          construct a fuzzy rule-based habitat suitability model for spawning Europea
         n grayling (<I>Thymallus thymallus</I> L.) in the Aare river (Bern, Switzerl
         and). Optimisation of the fuzzy rule-based model was based on two different
         training criteria, the weighted correctly classified instances (CCI<I><SUB>w
         </SUB></I>) and Cohen's Kappa. The ecological relevance of the results was a
         ssessed by comparing the optimised rule bases with a rule base derived from
         ecological expert knowledge. Optimisation based on Kappa appeared to generat
         e acceptable results (CCI = 0.70; Kappa = 0.32) and was more practical than
         optimisation based on CCI<I><SUB>w</SUB></I> since the latter required fine
         tuning of a weight parameter, which accounted for the species prevalence. Th
         e optimal rules showed 74% similarity with the rules derived from expert kno
         wledge, while 84% of all model errors was due to false positive predictions
         of the model. These errors might be due to the impact of variables, which we
         re not included in this study on grayling presence and thus are not necessar
         ily a model error. The habitat suitability model optimised in this paper is
         able to predict the effect of different impacts on the river system and to s
         elect the optimal restoration option. Hence, it could be a valuable decision

' (94 chars) description => protected'Estrogenic exposure has been reported to occur in Swiss rivers, and there is
          concern that reduced reproductive health, caused by disturbances of the end
         ocrine system, may contribute to the observed decline in brown trout catch.
         Consequently, we aimed to determine if disturbances of the endocrine system
         do occur in wild brown trout (<em>Salmo trutta</em>) in Switzerland and, in
         the affirmative case, if these might affect trout population status. Our fir
         st task was to characterize the estrogenicity of Swiss midland rivers that r
         eceive effluents from sewage treatment plants (STP). Next, we performed a se
         t of laboratory and field exposure experiments aimed at elucidating how estr
         ogens affect sexual development and reproductive parameters as estrogen-sens
         itive targets in the life cycle of brown trout. Subsequently, we assessed th
         e demographic status of brown trout populations in the field which were expo
         sed to the cumulative impact of estrogen-active compounds and other stressor
         s. Finally, we integrated the data into a life-cycle model to predict potent
         ial population-level consequences of the (xeno)estrogenic exposure. The estr
         ogenicity of 18 Swiss midland rivers was characterized bioanalytically by ap
         plying the YES bioassay to water samples and by measuring plasma vitellogeni
         n (VTG) levels in resident brown trout. Generally, estrogenic contamination
         of the rivers appears to occur only locally and at comparatively low levels
         (0.2-2 ng/l 17β-estradiol equivalents). In laboratory experiments, potentia
         l disruptive effects of estrogens on gonadal differentiation and reproductio
         n of brown trout were investigated. The estrogen-sensitive window of brown t
         rout gonad differentiation was found to differ from other salmonid species.
         Feminisation of the developing gonads occurred only after exposure to rather
          high estrogen concentrations. Analysis of VTG mRNA levels indicated that th

' (106 chars) description => protected'The evolutionary outcome of interspecific hybridization, i.e. collapse of sp

         , depends on the balance between gene flow and selection against hybrids. If
          female mating preferences are open-ended but sign-inversed between species,
          they can theoretically be a source of such selection. Cichlid fish in Afric
         an lakes have sustained high rates of speciation despite evidence for widesp
         read hybridization, and sexual selection by female choice has been proposed
         as important in the origin and maintenance of species boundaries. However, i
         t had never been tested whether hybridizing species have open-ended preferen
         ce rules. Here we report the first experimental test using <I>Pundamilia pun
         damilia, Pundamilia nyererei</I> and their hybrids in three-way choice exper
         iments. Hybrid males are phenotypically intermediate. Wild-caught females of
          both species have strong preferences for conspecific over heterospecific ma
         les. Their responses to F<SUB>1</SUB> hybrid males are intermediate, but mor
         e similar to responses to conspecifics in one species and more similar to re
         sponses to heterospecifics in the other. We suggest that their mate choice m
         echanism may predispose haplochromine cichlids to maintain and perhaps under
         go phenotypic diversification despite hybridization, and that species differ

' (165 chars) description => protected'Several hundred species of haplochromine cichlid fish have evolved rapidly i
         n Lake Victoria. Divergent sexual and ecological selection probably played a
         n important role in this radiation, generating divergent mating preferences
         and preference–trait covariance. However, the segregation of hybrid inviab
         ility or infertility genes could also potentially generate preference–trai
         t covariance, and the mechanisms that cause the evolution of divergent matin
         g preferences have not been investigated in detail in any cichlid species pa
         ir. We investigated intrinsic fitness of hybrids between two sister species
         in the genus <I>Pundamilia</I>, one of the most species-rich genera of Lake
         Victoria cichlids. Fitness-related traits were measured in nonhybrid offspri
         ng of both species, and in the first and second hybrid generations. There we
         re no differences in fecundity, fertility, sex ratio or growth rates either
         between the sister species or between these and their hybrids. By contrast,
         there was a difference in offspring survival between the two sister species.
          Offspring survival was dependent only on the species of the mother, regardl
         ess of whether the cross was conspecific or heterospecific. Further, eggs te
         nded to be larger in the hybrids than in one of the parental species. Hence,
          hybrids suffered no intrinsic fitness reduction relative to nonhybrids. Our
          data suggest that intrinsic hybrid incompatibilities are unlikely to have c
         aused speciation in <I>Pundamilia</I>, nor to maintain species boundaries in

' (85 chars) description => protected'As a species of major interest for aquaculture, the sex determination system
          (SDS) of Nile tilapia, <I>Oreochromis niloticus</I>, has been widely invest
         igated. In this species, sex determination is considered to be governed by t
         he interactions between a complex system of genetic sex determination factor
         s (GSD) and the influence of temperature (TSD) during a critical period. Pre
         vious studies were exclusively carried out on domestic stocks with the genet
         ic and maintenance limitations associated. Given the wide distribution and a
         daptation potential of the Nile tilapia, we investigated under controlled co
         nditions the sex determination system of natural populations adapted to thre
         e extreme thermal regimes: stable extreme environments in Ethiopia, either c
         old temperatures in a highland lake (Lake Koka), or warm temperatures in hyd
         rothermal springs (Lake Metahara), and an environment with large seasonal va
         riations in Ghana (Kpandu, Lake Volta). The sex ratio analysis was conducted
          on progenies reared under constant basal (27 °C) or high (36 °C) temperat
         ures during the 30 days following yolk-sac resorption. Sex ratios of the pro
         genies reared at standard temperature suggest that the three populations sha
         re a similar complex GSD system based on a predominant male heterogametic fa
         ctor with additional influences of polymorphism at this locus and/or action
         of minor factors. The three populations presented a clear thermosensitivity
         of sex differentiation, with large variations in the intensity of response d
         epending on the parents. This confirms the presence of genotype-environment
         interactions in TSD of Nile tilapia. Furthermore the existence of naturally
         sex-reversed individuals is strongly suggested in two populations (<I>Kpandu
         </I> and <I>Koka</I>). However, it was not possible here to infer if the sex

          the high salinity North Inlet Estuary, South Carolina, USA. Nekton were col

         iations in total abundance and biomass were greater than seasonal variations
         . Differences of 3- to 30-fold in resident and transient taxa densities occu
         rred among creeks on the same date. Relative use (ranks) was similar among s
         easons and years. In canonical correlation analyses, depth, steepness, flow,
          and location were primary factors for total nekton and many taxa. Creeks th

         aptive radiation. Radiations have occurred in large lakes throughout the Nor
         thern Hemisphere following deglaciation. Some radiations are characterized b
         y limited genetic diversity and display either poorly and/or well differenti

         he relationship between total genetic diversity, the distribution of genetic
          variance and the degree of morphological divergence provides an interesting
          model for studying the origins of sympatric species diversity. We review th
         e evidence for three alternative speciation scenarios within all three coreg
         onine genera: <i>Prosopium</i>, <i>Stenodus</i> and <i>Coregonus</i>. Review
         ing genetic, morphological and biogeographical data we estimate the relative
          importance of (i) geographic speciation where in situ diversity builds up b
         y multiple invasions, (ii) speciation by divergent selection without geograp
         hical isolation from a single founder population, and (iii) speciation invol
         ving divergent selection during secondary contact with hybridization. In the
          context of this third scenario we discuss three alternative mechanisms: the
          maintenance and strengthening of allopatrically arisen reproductive isolati
         on through classical reinforcement; the persistence of allopatrically arisen
          phenotypic differentiation in the absence of reproductive isolation; comple
         te collapse of genetic and phenotypic structure into a hybrid swarm from whi
         ch new incipient species arise in sympatry. Using the speciation mode predic

         assumed to be of superior quality. In the mating system of most salmonid spe
         cies, intensive dominance fights are common and the winners monopolise most
         mates and sire most offspring. We drew a random sample of mature male brown
         trout (<em>Salmo trutta</em>) from two wild populations and determined their
          dominance hierarchy or traits linked to dominance. The fish were then strip
         ped and their sperm was used for <em>in vitro</em> fertilisations in two ful
         l-factorial breeding designs. We recorded embryo viability until hatching in
          both experiments, and juvenile survival during 20 months after release into
          a natural streamlet in the second experiment. Since offspring of brown trou
         t get only genes from their fathers, we used offspring survival as a quality
          measure to test (i) whether males differ in their genetic quality, and if s
         o, (ii) whether dominance or traits linked to dominance reveal 'good genes'.
         <br /> Results: We found significant additive genetic variance on embryo sur
         vival, i.e. males differed in their genetic quality. Older, heavier and larg
         er males were more successful in intra-sexual selection. However, neither do
         minance nor dominance indicators like body length, weight or age were signif
         icantly linked to genetic quality measured as embryo or juvenile survival.<b
         r /> Conclusion: We found no evidence that females can improve their offspri
         ng's genetic viability by mating with large and dominant males. If there sti
         ll were advantages of mating with dominant males, they may be linked to non-
         genetic benefits or to genetic advantages that are context dependent and the
         refore possibly not revealed under our experimental conditions – even if w
         e found significant additive genetic variation for embryo viability under su
         ch conditions.

         dy, we interpret life-history and sperm quality traits of fish that we caugh
         t from their spawning place. We found that males invest heavily into gonadal
          tissue (up to 5.6% of their body weight), which is, in comparison to other
         fish, consistent with external fertilization, distinct pairing and moderate

          costs of sperm and the level of competition they have to expect: dominant m
         ales are predicted to invest less into ejaculate quality and to have slower
         spermatozoa than subdominant males. We found that spermatozoa of older males
          are slower than those of younger males. Moreover, older males have larger b

' (182 chars) description => protected'Supportive breeding is an important tool in conservation management, but its

          around 40–50%. This loss would decrease with increasing population growth

         important whitefish collapsed to about 10% of preceding years. Age and growt

         elucidate the trophic relationships between zooplankton and fish, the «Wisc

          be caught by legal gillnets, which resulted in poor fishing yield. Evidence
          is presented that cladoceran biomass governs food consumption by the fish (

' (77 chars) description => protected'The maintenance of colour polymorphis0ms within populations has been a long-
         standing interest in evolutionary ecology. African cichlid fish contain some
          of the most striking known cases of this phenomenon. Intrasexual selection
         can be negative frequency dependent when males bias aggression towards pheno
         typically similar rivals, stabilizing male colour polymorphisms. We propose
         that where females are territorial and competitive, aggression biases in fem
         ales may also promote coexistence of female morphs. We studied a polymorphic
          population of the cichlid fish <em>Neochromis omnicaeruleus</em> from Lake
         Victoria, in which three distinct female colour morphs coexist: one plain br
         own and two blotched morphs. Using simulated intruder choice tests in the la
         boratory, we show that wild-caught females of each morph bias aggression tow
         ards females of their own morph, suggesting that females of all three morphs
          may have an advantage when their morph is locally the least abundant. This
         mechanism may contribute to the establishment and stabilization of colour po
         lymorphisms. Next, by crossing the morphs, we generated sisters belonging to
          different colour morphs. We find no sign of aggression bias in these sister
         s, making pleiotropy unlikely to explain the association between colour and
         aggression bias in wild fish, which is maintained in the face of gene flow.
         We conclude that female–female aggression may be one important force for s
         tabilizing colour polymorphism in cichlid fish.

         ptation in different habitats may lead to premating isolation upon secondary
          contact of populations. Speciation by sensory drive has traditionally been
         treated as a special case of speciation as a byproduct of adaptation to dive
         rgent environments in geographically isolated populations. However, if habit
         ats are heterogeneous, local adaptation in the sensory systems may cause the
          emergence of reproductively isolated species from a single unstructured pop
         ulation. In polychromatic fishes, visual sensitivity might become adapted to
          local ambient light regimes and the sensitivity might influence female pref
         erences for male nuptial color. In this paper, we investigate the possibilit
         y of speciation by sensory drive as a byproduct of divergent visual adaptati
         on within a single initially unstructured population. We use models based on
          explicit genetic mechanisms for color vision and nuptial coloration.<br />
         Results: We show that in simulations in which the adaptive evolution of visu
         al pigments and color perception are explicitly modeled, sensory drive can p
         romote speciation along a short selection gradient within a continuous habit
         at and population. We assumed that color perception evolves to adapt to the
         modal light environment that individuals experience and that females prefer
         to mate with males whose nuptial color they are most sensitive to. In our si
         mulations color perception depends on the absorption spectra of an individua
         l's visual pigments. Speciation occurred most frequently when the steepness
         of the environmental light gradient was intermediate and dispersal distance
         of offspring was relatively small. In addition, our results predict that mut
         ations that cause large shifts in the wavelength of peak absorption promote
         speciation, whereas we did not observe speciation when peak absorption evolv

          precedent analysis of the evolution and significance of these factors at th
         e watershed level is proposed as a prerequisite for a successful rehabilitat
         ion project. Based on a watershed-scale approach, we investigated the curren
         t and historical states of the fish assemblage and of relevant abiotic facto
         rs in the river Rhone, a seventh-order stream in Switzerland scheduled for l
         arge-scale rehabilitation. Recent field data gathered by electrofishing and
         habitat mapping were analysed by means of a mixed model approach and were qu
         alitatively compared compared to historical information derived from topogra
         phic maps and documentary sources.<BR/>The length of the entire active chann
         el has been reduced by 45% (102 km) since 1850, representing a significant d
         iminution in lateral connectivity. Our recent fish survey revealed a deplete
         d species set, with only two of 19 historically documented species found. Th
         e density of brown trout was generally low, but positively correlated with t
         he presence of cover. Thus, morphological improvements, e.g. through local r
         iver widening, offer extensive potential for the restoration of native fish
         assemblages, but will probably only be successful in combination with a more
          natural hydrological regime.

' (102 chars) description => protected'Despite the numerous benefits of hydropower production, this renewable energ
         y source can have serious negative consequences on the environment. For exam
         ple, dams act as barriers for the longitudinal migration of organisms and tr
         ansport of particulate matter. Accelerated siltation processes in the receiv
         ing river reduce the vertical connectivity between river and groundwater. Hy
         dropeaks, caused by short-term changes in hydropower operation, result in a
         negative impact on both habitat and organisms, especially during winter mont
         hs when natural discharge is low and almost constant. In this study, we repo
         rt the current deficits present in the River Rhone from two different scient
         ific perspectives – fish ecology and hydrology. Potential rehabilitation s
         olutions in synergy with flood protection measures are discussed. We focus o
         n the effects of hydropeaking in relation to longitudinal and vertical dimen
         sions and discuss local river widening as a potential rehabilitation tool. T
         he fish fauna in the Rhone is characterized by a highly unnatural structure
         (low diversity, impaired age distribution). A high correlation between fish
         biomass and monotonous morphology (poor cover availability) was established.
          Tracer hydrology provided further details about the reduced permeability of
          the riverbank, revealing a high degree of siltation with <I>K</I> values of
          about 4.7 × 10<SUP>−6</SUP> m s<SUP>−1</SUP>. Improving the hydrologic
          situation is therefore essential for the successful rehabilitation of the R
         hone River. To this end, hydropeaks in the river reaches must be attenuated.
          This can be realized by a combination of different hard technical and soft
         operational measures such as retention reservoirs or slower up and down ramp
         ing of turbines.

' (124 chars) description => protected'1. Elaborate restoration attempts are underway worldwide to return human-imp
         acted rivers to more natural conditions. Assessing the outcome of river rest
         oration projects is vital for adaptive management, evaluating project effici
         ency, optimising future programmes and gaining public acceptance. An importa
         nt reason why assessment is often omitted is lack of appropriate guidelines.
         <BR/>2. Here we present guidelines for assessing river restoration success.
         They are based on a total of 49 indicators and 13 specific objectives elabor
         ated for the restoration of low- to mid-order rivers in Switzerland. Most of
          these objectives relate to ecological attributes of rivers, but socio-econo
         mic aspects are also considered.<BR/>3. A strategy is proposed according to
         which a set of indicators is selected from the total of 49 indicators to ens
         ure that indicators match restoration objectives and measures, and that the
         required effort for survey and analysis of indicators is appropriate to the
         project budget.<BR/>4. Indicator values are determined according to methods
         described in detailed method sheets. Restoration success is evaluated by com
         paring indicator values before and after restoration measures have been unde
         rtaken. To this end, values are first standardised on a dimensionless scale
         ranging from 0 to 1, then averaged across different indicators for a given p
         roject objective, and finally assigned to one of five overall success catego
         ries.<BR/>5. To illustrate the application of this scheme, a case study on t
         he Thur River, Switzerland, is presented. Seven indicators were selected to
         meet a total of five project objectives. The project was successful in achie
         ving 'provision of high recreational value', 'lateral connectivity' and 'ver
         tical connectivity' but failed to meet the objectives 'morphological and hyd
         raulic variability' and 'near natural abundance and diversity of fauna'. Res
         ults from this assessment allowed us to identify potential deficits and gaps

' (103 chars) description => protected'A Bayesian probability network has been developed to integrate the various s
         cientific findings of an interdisciplinary research project on brown trout a
         nd their habitat in Switzerland. The network is based on a dynamic, age-stru
         ctured population model, which is extended to include the effect of natural
         and anthropogenic influence factors. These include gravel bed conditions, wa
         ter quality, disease rates, water temperature, habitat conditions, stocking
         practices, angler catch and flood frequency. Effect strength and associated
         uncertainty are described by conditional probability distributions. These co
         nditional probabilities were developed using experimental and field data, li
         terature reports, and the elicited judgment of involved scientists. The mode
         l was applied to brown trout populations at 12 locations in four river basin
         s. Model testing consisted of comparing predictions of juvenile and adult de
         nsity under current conditions to the results of recent population surveys.
         The relative importance of the various influence factors was then assessed b
         y comparing various model scenarios, including a hypothetical reference cond
         ition. A measure of causal strength was developed based on this comparison,
         and the major stress factors were analyzed according to this measure for eac
         h location. We found that suboptimal habitat conditions are the most importa
         nt and ubiquitous stress factor and have impacts of sufficient magnitude to
         explain the reduced fish populations observed in recent years. However, othe
         r factors likely contribute to the declines, depending on local conditions.
         The model developed in this study can be used to provide these site-specific
          assessments and predict the effect of candidate management measures.

' (104 chars) description => protected'Disruptive sexual selection on colour patterns has been suggested as a major
          cause of diversification in the cichlid species flock of Lake Victoria. In
         <I>Neochromis omnicaeruleus</I>, a colour and sex determination polymorphism

         eoretical work on this incipient species complex found conditions for rapid
         sympatric speciation by selection on sex determination and sexual selection
         on male and female colour patterns, under restrictive assumptions. Here we t
         est the biological plausibility of a key assumption of such models, namely,
         the existence of a male preference against a novel female colour morph befor
         e its appearance in the population. We show that most males in a population
         that lacks the colour polymorphism exhibit a strong mating preference agains
         t the novel female colour morph and that reinforcement is not a likely expla

         phenotypic diversity in the cichlid fish species flocks of East Africa. Yet,

' (124 chars) description => protected'It has been suggested that sympatric speciation can be driven by sexual sele
         ction on male mating traits alone. However, a fundamental problem for this p
         rocess is the lack of ecological differentiation that would stabilize the co
         existence of incipient species through frequency-dependent selection. Such s
         election can also occur if male aggression is primarily directed towards sim
         ilar rather than towards dissimilar phenotypes, so that rare male phenotypes
          would enjoy a negatively frequency-dependent fitness advantage. We experime
         ntally tested such an aggression bias in two recently diverged, ecologically
          and anatomically similar sympatric cichlid species pairs of the genus <I>Pu
         ndamilia</I> from Lake Victoria. Territorial males of a pair of partially re
         productively isolated species with red and blue nuptial coloration, respecti
         vely, studied in the laboratory were confronted simultaneously with both col
         our types enclosed in transparent tubes. Red males were more aggressive to r
         ed stimuli under white light but not when colour differences were masked und
         er green light. Blue males were equally aggressive to both stimuli in both l
         ight conditions. Males of two apparently fully reproductively isolated speci
         es, again one with red and one with blue nuptial coloration, studied in the
         field, both directed more aggressive behaviour towards conspecific than towa
         rds heterospecific stimulus males. The differential allocation of aggression
          would create an advantage for males of the less abundant phenotype or speci
         es, thereby potentially supporting stable coexistence of the phenotypes. The
          finding that this effect was less clear in the partially reproductively iso

' (115 chars) description => protected'The African cichlid fish radiations are the most diverse extant animal radia

         tive radiation theory. The past few years have seen major advances in the ph
         ylogenetics, evolutionary biogeography and ecology of cichlid fish. Most of
         this work has concentrated on the most diverse radiations. Unfortunately, a
         large number of small radiations and ‘non-radiations’ have been overlook
         ed, potentially limiting the contribution of the cichlid system to our under
         standing of speciation and adaptive radiation. I have reviewed the literatur
         e to identify 33 intralacustrine radiations and 76 failed radiations. For as
          many as possible I collected information on lake size, age and phylogenetic
          relationships. I use these data to address two questions: (i) whether the r

          and spatial variation in ecological opportunity and (ii) whether the likeli
         hood of undergoing adaptive radiation is similar for different African cichl
         id lineages. The former is a key prediction of the ecological theory of adap

         tates that organisms are larger at higher latitudes (or in colder climates).
          Rensch's rule states that male body size varies (or evolutionarily diverges
         ) more than female body size among species, resulting in slopes greater than
          one when male size is regressed on female size. We use published studies of

         to investigate patterns equivalent to Rensch's rule among populations within
          species and to evaluate their possible relation to Bergmann's rule. Consist
         ent with previous studies, we found a continuum of Bergmann (larger at highe

         than female size in only 55 of 98 species, suggesting that intraspecific var

          To test this hypothesis, we staged contests between red and blue males from
          a population where the phenotypes are interbreeding morphs or incipient spe

          was significantly diminished under green light. Contests were shorter when
         colour differences were visible. Experience of blue males with red males did
          not affect the outcome of a contest. The advantage of red over blue in comb

         trophic Swiss lakes were hypolimnetic oxygenation during summer stratificati

         ter. These lake-internal measures carried out for more than 15 years showed
          the 4 mg O<sub>2</sub> L<sup>−1</sup> criterion can be achieved most o

         cerne, apart from slower growth, reduction in year class strength of the slo
         w growing form of lake whitefish was identified as the major cause for decre
         asing yield. Stocking of take whitefish larvae could not counteract this pro
         cess. It was, therefore, hypothesised that larval mortality of lake whitefis

         gotrophication because of food shortage during the early larval phase. Feedi
         ng experiments in aquaria with newly hatched lake whitefish larvae from Lake
          Lucerne, and using various concentrations of <I>Artemia salina</I> and zoop
         lankton, showed a clear relationship between food concentration and mortalit
         y over the first 34 days. Elevated mortality of 40% or more resulted from fo
         od concentration of 20 zooplankton organisms per litre or fewer. Analysis of
          zooplankton data from Lake Lucerne indicated that concentration of zooplank
         ton organisms usable by the whitefish larvae in late winter and spring was m
         uch lower in the years after 1984 than before. This might explain, at least
         in part, why year class strength and yield of the slow growing form of lake
         whitefish has decreased during re-oligotrophication of Lake Lucerne.

          nuptial coloration and female mating preferences, in the absence of postzyg

         opulations that differ in phenotypic traits. These traits may be unreliable
         indicators of biological species status and systematists may have inconsiste
         ntly assigned species among lineages or locations on the basis of these trai
         ts, thus hampering comparative studies of regional species richness and spec
         iation rates. Our aim was to develop a method of generating standardized est
         imates of regional species richness suitable for comparative analysis, and t
         o use these estimates to examine the extent and consistency of species assig

         xplicit assumption that if taxa present on equivalent habitats have disjunct

         timates were compared with current observed 'high-end' regional species rich

' (132 chars) description => protected'We propose a new mechanism for diversification of male nuptial-colour patter
         ns in the rapidly speciating cichlid fishes of Lake Victoria. Sympatric clos
         ely related species often display nuptial colours at opposite ends of the sp
         ectrum with males either blue or yellow to red. Colour polymorphisms within
         single populations are common too. We propose that competition between males
          for breeding sites promotes such colour diversification, and thereby specia
         tion. We hypothesize that male aggression is primarily directed towards male
         s of the common colour, and that rare colour morphs enjoy a negatively frequ
         ency-dependent fitness advantage. We test our hypothesis with a large datase
         t on the distributions and nuptial colorations of 52 species on 47 habitat i
         slands in Lake Victoria, and with a smaller dataset on the within-spawning-s
         ite distributions of males with different coloration. We report that territo
         ries of males of the same colour are negatively associated on the spawning s
         ite, and that the distribution of closely related species over habitat islan
         ds is determined by nuptial coloration in the fashion predicted by our hypot
         hesis. Whereas among unrelated species those with similar nuptial colour are
          positively associated, among closely related species those with similar col
         our are negatively associated and those with different colour are positively
          associated. This implies that negatively frequency-dependent selection on n
         uptial coloration among closely related species is a sufficiently strong for
         ce to override other effects on species distributions. We suggest that male-
         male competition is an important and previously neglected agent of diversifi
         cation among haplochromine cichlid fishes.
