Wagner et al. combined phenotypic and genomic data to study convergence in Mediterranean gravel beach clingfishes, revealing convergence at the level of individual genes, variants, and biological pathways, but not across genomes.

GBE | The Genomics of Convergent Adaptation to Intertidal Gravel Beaches in Mediterranean Clingfishes Endemic Mediterranean gravel beach clingfish (Gouania ssp.) in a dynamic gravel environment. Using an integrative genomic and morphological approach, this study investigates how similar body shapes repeatedly evolve and what this reveals about the genomic basis of phenotypic convergence.
