Metabolic shift toward ketosis in asocial cavefish increases social-like affinity

Abstract Background Social affinity and collective behavior are nearly ubiquitous in the animal kingdom, but many lineages feature evolutionarily asocial species. These solitary species may have evolved to conserve energy in food-sparse environments. However, the mechanism by which metabolic shifts...
