Cave evolution on repeat: reuse of the same genomic regions across lineages of Astyanax mexicanus.
It is found that genetic repeatability is a common feature in the repeated evolution of cave traits, the extent of genetic repeatability varies across cave traits, and there is little evidence for widespread colocalization of sleep, eye loss, and metabolic traits within the genome.
