Admixture between old lineages facilitated contemporary ecological speciation in Lake Constance stickleback

Ecological speciation can proceed rapidly, but the origin of genetic variation facilitating it has remained elusive. Here, the authors show that secondary contact and introgression between deeply diverged lineages of stickleback fish facilitated rapid ecological speciation into lake and stream ecoty...
