Summary: GENETIC VARIATION IS A CORE CONCEPT in genetics and provides the foundation for evolutionary change and selective breeding practices. The guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a freshwater fish that naturally occupies tropical habitats in northeast South America and has also been introduced in other tropical regions throughout the world. As you may know, it is a very popular aquarium fish. Guppy populations harbor genetic variation that affects their coloration and the length of their tails, especially in males. Many aquarium-fish hobbyists have taken an interest in breeding guppies to obtain strains with different patterns as seen in the collection of beautiful male guppies on this cover.
