The DNA Flips That Help Fish Become New Species Lake Malawi’s cichlid fish are evolving into new species at lightning speed—thanks to supergenes that keep evolution’s best tools intact.

Chunks of flipped DNA are turning ordinary fish into evolutionary rockets. Here's how supergenes are reshaping life in Lake Malawi. #Evolution #Supergenes #Biodiversity
