摘要：
The cost of DNA sequencing continues to fall, which makes it feasible to develop genomic resources for new model species that are well suited for studying questions in evolutionary biology. The thousands of closely related cichlid fishes in the lakes of East Africa are an ideal model system for understanding the genetic basis of vertebrate speciation. Genomic techniques are helping to integrate empirical and theoretical studies by identifying the genes that underlie the phenotypic differences among species.
