Genetic mapping of metabolism-related traits in Astyanax mexicanus. A Surface fish and Pachn cavefish were paired to produce F1 surface/Pachn hybrids. F2 hybrids were generated through interbreeding F1 hybrid siblings. B Hybrids were raised in group housing to 14months at which point they were housed individually in 1.5L tanks and fed 6mg of pellet food per day for 4months. Figure indicates the timeline for phenotype quantification. C Representative image of female F2 organs that were used to measure gastrointestinal tract length, visceral fat area (VAT), and liver area
