of life,,–. How adaptive radiations proceed and what determines their extent remains unclear …

Evolutionary radiations are responsible for much of the variation in biodiversity across taxa.
Cichlid fishes are well known for spectacular evolutionary radiations, as they have …

Adaptive radiations are generated through a complex interplay of biotic and abiotic factors.
