似Ju类鱼类的系统发育研究（鲤形目：鲤科）

本文通过对似Ｊｕ类８属１３种和外类群７属１０种鱼类的比较研究,选取３７个骨骼及外部特征,运用外类群比较进行特征分析,根据分支系统学原理重建了似Ｊｕ类的系统发育。特征分析和系统发育分析表明似ｊｕ类是具有许多共同离征的单系群,朝着流水性氏栖生活和刮食性的主干方向发展;其中以似Ｊｕ属最原始的,胡Ｊｕ属最特化构成７对姐妹群,蛇Ｊｕ属是较早分化出的相对特化的类群,棒花鱼属和小鳔Ｊｕ属的关系相对较远。     

论山毛榉科植物的系统发育

本文运用分支分类学方法,对山毛榉科植物进行了系统发育的分析。山毛榉科作为单元发生群包括柯属、锥属、粟属、三棱栎属、水青冈属和栎属。桦木科和南山毛榉属被选择作为外类群。对大量的性状进行评估之后,选择了25对性状作为建立数据矩阵的基本资料。性状极化以外类群比较为主,同时也采用了化石证据和通行的形态演化的基本原则。数据矩阵由7个分类群、2个外类群和25个性状组成。采用最大同步法、演化极端结合法和综合分析法对该数据矩阵进行了分析。在得到的3个树状分支图中按照最简约的原则,选出演化长度最短的谱系分支图作为本文讨论山毛榉科属间的系统演化关系的基础。关于山毛榉科植物的系统发育,作者的观点如下：(A)现存的山毛榉科的6个属形成了4条平行进化的分支路线,它们分别被处理作4个亚科,即：栗亚科,三棱栎亚科,水青冈亚科和栎亚科;(B)平行进化是山毛榉科植物系统发育过程中的主要形式。生殖过程中的一些特征,如：果实第二年成熟,胚珠通常败育等,是影响山毛榉科植物属间基因交流的主要原因。在现存的山毛榉科植物中,柯属是最原始的类群。三棱栎属和锥属的起源也较早,而栗属、水青冈属和栎属是特化的类群。     

鳇亚科似鳇属鱼类的物种界定和系统发育关系

逗亚科似逗属鱼类的物种界定保持争议, 系统发育关系尚待解决。研究取样似逗属鱼类所有种, 使用核基因多位点序列重建似逗属鱼类的系统发育关系, 运用分子的物种界定方法并结合形态特征分析厘定我国似逗属鱼类的分类。贝叶斯系统发育树结果表明: 桂林似逗与平江似逗是单系种; 似逗与扁嘴似逗是多系种, 前者包括五个谱系A至E, 后者包括两个谱系A与B。POFAD距离分析和Structurama分析的结果表明似逗和扁嘴似逗的每个谱系是独立遗传种群, BP & P分析结果强烈支持它们是不同种。*Beast物种树结果揭示: 扁嘴似逗谱系B位于似逗属鱼类的基部位置; 似逗谱系A与B是姊妹群关系, 似逗谱系C是扁嘴似逗谱系A的姊妹群, 它们一起与桂林似逗形成姊妹群关系; 似逗谱系D与E是姊妹群关系, 它们一起是平江似逗的姊妹群。结合形态证据, 对我国似逗属鱼类分类厘定如下: 限定严格意义似逗包括似逗谱系A+B; 恢复长吻似逗(Pseudogobio longirostris Mori, 1934)给予似逗谱系C分类名; 似逗谱系D与E是隐存种, 桂林似逗与平江似逗是有效种。     

中国栎属(壳斗科)基于叶表皮及叶结构特征的分支分析

以三棱栎为外类群,基于叶表皮及叶结构特征对中国栎属进行初步的分支分析,结果显示了栎属内稳定的“支”结构及其种间关系。栎亚属可划分为5个组,分别为巴东栎组,高山栎组,Jiang子栎组,麻栎组和槲栎组,Jiang子栎组是栎亚属常绿栎类与落叶栎类之间的过渡类群;高山栎组应为栎亚属常绿栎类中的特化类群,而非最原始类群,5个组中,仅巴东栎组不是单系类群,而是一个多系类群,青冈亚属较栎亚属早分支,可划分为3大类;无毛类,简单被毛类和复杂被毛类;无毛类最原始,复杂被毛类与栎亚属关系最近,因此,叶表皮及叶结构特征对解决栎亚属组间亲缘关系有重要的分类学意义。     

獐牙菜属植物的起源, 散布和分布区形成

本文根据植物类群的系统发育和地理分布统一的原理,讨论了獐牙菜属植物的起源、散布和分 布区的形成。獐牙菜属包括11组16系154种,间断分布在亚洲、欧洲、北美洲和非洲。中国西南部- 喜马拉雅地区汇集了大多数种类、不同演化水平的类群以及形形色色的特有类群,成为该属的多样化 中心和多度中心。该属的原始类群和外类群也集中分布在中国西南山地,极有可能是该属的起源地。该 属的分布区类型中出现了各式的间断分布,根据有该属植物分布的大陆间及大陆与岛屿间分离和连接 的时间推测,该属的起源时间至少不会晚于晚白垩纪,也许更早,可追溯到中白垩纪。通过分类群间亲 缘关系和现代分布分析,显示出该属植物从起源地向周围和一定方向散布,形成了三个主要散布途径。在散布过程中植物本身也发生演化和就地特化,形成新的类群。

中国慈姑属系统发育的研究

本文研究了中国慈姑属植物间的系统发育关系。选取了12个与该属系统发育有较重要关系的特征,将8个已知分类群与外类群刺果泽泻属进行了比较。应用数量分支分析的Farris-Wagner方法,建立了中国慈姑属系统发育分支图。讨论了各分类群间的系统发育关系、该属起源和数量分支分析方法等问题。     

番荔枝科研究35.Guatteria类群和有关属的系统发育

Guatteria类群由4个新热带的属组成,即Guatteria,Guatteriopsis,Guatteriella和Heteropetalum。不同的作者基于不同的证据得出的它在番荔枝中的地位各不相同。基于宏观和微观的形态特征,对该类群进行了表型和分支分析。分支分析表明,所研究属的系统发育分支方式仅由极少数共同衍征支持,同型现象非常明显,所获得的唯一的最简约分支图可分为两个基本部分,即一个(假)合生心皮分支和一个离生心皮grade。在表征聚类图和主成分分析的三维构象图中同样可以区分出离生心皮和(假)合生心皮两个表征群,表征分析表明Guatteria类群处在其它离生心皮类和(假)合生心皮类的中间位置。然而分支分析表明Guatteria类群与番荔枝科中最进化的(假)合生心皮类有姊妹群关系。Guatteria类群是离生心皮类中最进化的一类。番荔枝科中离生心皮类和(假)合生心皮类在漫长的进化过程中经历了强烈的形态分化而显示出极大的形态差异,然而在系统发育上它们可以通过Guatteria类群作为纽带而联系起来。     

基于线粒体基因组全序列的鲟形目鱼类(Pisces: Acipenseriformes)的分子系统发育重建

为厘清鲟形目鱼类的系统发育, 研究新测定了中华鲟(Acipenser sinensis)、长江鲟(A. dabryanus)、短吻鲟(A. brevirostrum)、纳氏鲟(A. naccarii)、鳇(Huso dauricus)和匙吻鲟(Polyodon spathula)共6种鲟类的线粒体全基因组序列。联合已测的17种鲟类的线粒体基因组数据, 利用最大似然法和贝叶斯法重建了鲟形目鱼类的分子系统发育关系, 并采用似然值检验对不同的树拓扑结构进行了评价。结果表明, 6种新测鲟类的线粒体基因组大小为16521—16766 bp, 编码13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因和2个核糖体基因, 与大多数已测的鲟类的线粒体基因组结构高度相似。基于23种鲟形目鱼类线粒体基因组数据, 系统发育分析的结果表明: (1)鲟形目的两个科, 匙吻鲟科(Polyodontidae)和鲟科(Acipenseridae)均为单系; (2)鲟科的内部亲缘关系复杂, 鲟属和鳇属的物种均不构成单系群。鲟科鱼类按分子系统发育重建结果可以分为3个类群: 尖吻鲟类(A. sturio - A. oxyrinchus clade)、大西洋鲟类(Atlantic clade)和太平洋鲟类(Pacific clade)。树拓扑结构的检验结果表明, 鲟科的系统发育关系为(尖吻鲟类(太平洋鲟类, 大西洋鲟类))。铲鲟属(Scaphirhynchus)是大西洋鲟类的基部类群。研究也说明线粒体基因组数据在鲟形目鱼类系统与进化研究方面具有重要应用价值。     

中国千金藤属植物化学分类概况

探讨了各结构类型的异喹啉类生物碱在千金藤属植物中的分布规律及千金藤属植物的亲缘关系,在较原始的类群中,生物碱的结构类型和数量均较少,而在较进化的类群中内,其结构类型得到较大的发展,化合物的数量也相对增多,显示异喹啉类生物碱的结构类型及数量与属内植物群的进化有一定的对应关系,一些结构类型特化的生物碱和在植物界中分布极为狭窄的化学成分对亚属下各植物组的划分起着重要作用。     

东亚似鮈类鱼类的起源和演化

Phylogeny of the gudgeons (Teleostei: Cyprinidae: Gobioninae)

The members of the cyprinid subfamily Gobioninae, commonly called gudgeons, form one of the most well-established assemblages in the family Cyprinidae. The subfamily is a species-rich group of fishes, these fishes display diverse life histories, appearances, and behavior. The phylogenetic relationships of Gobioninae are examined using sequence data from four loci: cytochrome b, cytochrome c oxidase I, opsin, and recombination activating gene 1. This investigation produced a data matrix of 4114 bp for 162 taxa that was analyzed using parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference methods. The phylogenies our analyses recovered corroborate recent studies on the group. The subfamily Gobioninae is monophyletic and composed of three major lineages. We find evidence for a Hemibarbus-Squalidus group, and the tribes Gobionini and Sarcocheilichthyini, with the Hemibarbus-Squalidus group sister to a clade of Gobionini-Sarcocheilichthyini. The Hemibarbus-Squalidus group includes those two genera; the tribe Sarcocheilichthyini includes Coreius, Coreoleuciscus, Gnathopogon, Gobiocypris, Ladislavia, Paracanthobrama, Pseudorasbora, Pseudopungtungia, Pungtungia, Rhinogobio, and Sarcocheilichthys; the tribe Gobionini includes Abbottina, Biwia, Gobio, Gobiobotia, Huigobio, Microphysogobio, Platysmacheilus, Pseudogobio, Romanogobio, Saurogobio, and Xenophysogobio. The monotypic Acanthogobio is placed into the synonymy of Gobio. We tentatively assign Belligobio to the Hemibarbus-Squalidus group and Mesogobio to Gobionini; Paraleucogobio and Parasqualidus remain incertae sedis. Based on the topologies presented, the evolution of swim bladder specializations, a distinctive feature among cyprinids, has occurred more than once within the subfamily.     

鳇亚科棒花鱼属鱼类的分类与系统发育关系

逗亚科棒花鱼属鱼类的分类与系统发育关系尚未解决。研究选择线粒体Cyt b基因和核基因RAG1、MLH3及MSH6作为分子标记, 重建了棒花鱼属鱼类的系统发育关系, 并结合形态证据对该属鱼类进行了分类厘定。结果表明: 棒花鱼与钝吻棒花鱼是单系种。拉林棒花鱼与辽宁棒花鱼是并系种, 一起形成单系群。拉林棒花鱼+辽宁棒花鱼一起嵌套在小鳔逗属鱼类内部, 钝吻棒花鱼嵌套在片唇逗属鱼类内部。拉林棒花鱼+辽宁棒花鱼+钝吻棒花鱼+片唇逗属+胡逗属+小鳔逗属+琵琶逗属鱼类组成单系群, 它们一起与棒花鱼形成姊妹群关系。可量性状与可数性状均不能区分拉林棒花鱼和辽宁棒花鱼。结合系统发育关系与形态证据, 棒花鱼属鱼类的分类厘定如下: 棒花鱼属鱼类包括棒花鱼和平江棒花鱼(未取样); 辽宁棒花鱼是拉林棒花鱼的同物异名, 后者的分类位置有待进一步校订; 钝吻棒花鱼校订为钝吻片唇逗。     

真正柑桔果树群植物的分支学研究

本文用相容性分析方法(Compatability snalysis)分析了真正柑桔果树群(芸香科Rutaceae-柑桔亚科Aurantioideae-柑桔族(Citreae)-柑桔亚族(Citrinae)植物内各属间的分支学关系。给出了建立在7个相容性性状组成的最大族所决定的分支图。性状极性的确定使用了外群法。结果表明,柑桔属(Citrus L.)和多蕊桔属(Clymenia Swing)构成一个单系类群,他们的姐妹群是金柑属(Fortunella Swing.)。被认为起源于中国的3个属,柑桔属(Citrus)、金柑属(Fortunella)和积属(Poncirus Raf.)并未构成一个单系类群。本文还利用分支关系分析和讨论了真正柑桔果树群的种系发生关系。     

Ascospore morphology is a poor predictor of the phylogenetic relationships of Neurospora and Gelasinospora

The genera Neurospora and Gelasinospora are conventionally distinguished by differences in ascospore ornamentation, with elevated longitudinal ridges (ribs) separated by depressed grooves (veins) in Neurospora and spherical or oval indentations (pits) in Gelasinospora. The phylogenetic relationships of representatives of 12 Neurospora and 4 Gelasinospora species were assessed with the DNA sequences of four nuclear genes. Within the genus Neurospora, the 5 outbreeding conidiating species form a monophyletic group with N. discreta as the most divergent, and 4 of the homothallic species form a monophyletic group. In combined analysis, each of the conventionally defined Gelasinospora species was more closely related to a Neurospora species than to another Gelasinospora species. Evidently, the Neurospora and Gelasinospora species included in this study do not represent two clearly resolved monophyletic sister genera, but instead represent a polyphyletic group of taxa with close phylogenetic relationships and significant morphological similarities. Ascospore morphology, the character that the distinction between the genera Neurospora and Gelasinospora is based upon,was not an accurate predictor of phylogenetic relationships.     

Cotylea (Polycladida): a cladistic analysis of morphology

Abstract. Polyclad flatworms are acoelomate bilaterians found in benthic communities worldwide, predominantly in marine environments. Current polyclad systematics is unstable, with two non-concordant classification schemes resulting in a poor understanding of within-group relationships. Here we present the first phylogenetic framework for the suborder Cotylea using a morphological matrix. Representatives of 34 genera distributed among all cotylean families (except four, excluded due to their dubious taxonomic status) were investigated. The number of families included ranges from a conservative eight to a revisionary 11. Outgroup analysis indicated that the suborder is monophyletic and defined by the presence of a ventral adhesive structure, a short posteriorly positioned vagina, and cement glands. Of the eight to 11 families included, we confirmed that three were monophyletic: Boniniidae, Prosthiostomidae, and Pseudocerotidae. Boniniidae was consistently recovered as the sister group to other Cotylea, based on the retention of the plesiomorphic Lang's vesicle. The clade consisting of Anonymus, Marcusia , and Pericelis is sister to the Boniniidae and the rest of the Cotylea. Above this clade there is little resolution at the base of the sister group. The Euryleptidae are found to be paraphyletic and give rise to the Pseudocerotidae. Neither classification scheme received unequivocal support. The intrafamilial relationships of the diverse Pseudocerotidae and Euryleptidae were examined. Color pattern characters (used for species identification) were highly homoplasious but increased cladogram resolution within genera. The monophyly of seven genera within the Pseudocerotidae and Euryleptidae was not supported and many genera showed no autapomorphies, highlighting the need for taxonomic revision of these families.     

Comments on hexanchiform phylogeny (Pisces, Neoselachii)

The Hexanchiformes (Cow Sharks) are regarded as a monophyletic taxon. Cladistic analysis shows that among the various neoselachian taxa proposed so far as the sister group of the Hexanchiformes a sister group relationship between the Hexanchiformes and a (still unnamed) taxon comprising the Squaliformes and Pristiophoriformes appears as the most probable hypothesis. In addition, MAISEY and WOLFRAM'S (1984) concept of hexanchiform interrelationships is critically reviewed. An alternative cladogram of hexanchiform interrelationships is developed which includes Recent as well as fossil hexanchiform taxa. In this cladogram the living genera Hexancbus and Notorynchus are sister groups and both taxa together form the sister group of the Recent Heptranchias. The fossil taxa +Notidanoides, +“Hexanchus” gracilis, +Notidanodon and +Weltonia are arranged in the stem lineage of recent Hexanchiformes.     

A molecular phylogeny of the Percidae (Teleostei, Perciformes) based on mitochondrial DNA sequence

The family Percidae is among the most speciose families of northern hemisphere fishes with > 178 178 North American species and 14 Eurasian species. Previous phylogenetic studies have been hampered by a lack of informative characters, inadequate taxonomic sampling, and conflicting data. We estimated phylogenetic relationships among 54 percid species (9 of 10 genera and all but one subgenus of darters) and four outgroup taxa using mitochondrial DNA data from the 12S rRNA and cytochrome b genes. Four primary evolutionary lineages were consistently recovered: Etheostomatinae (Ammocrypta, Crystallaria, Etheostoma, and Percina), Perca, Luciopercinae (Romanichthys, Sander, and Zingel), and Gymnocephalus. Except Etheostoma and Zingel, all polytypic genera were monophyletic. The Etheostoma subgenus Nothonotus failed to resolve with other members of the genus resulting in a paraphyletic Etheostoma. The subfamily Percinae (Gymnocephalus and Perca) was not recovered in phylogenetic analyses with Gymnocephalus sister to Luciopercinae. Etheostomatinae and Romanichthyini were never resolved as sister groups supporting convergent evolution as the cause of small, benthic, stream-inhabiting percids in North American and Eurasian waters.     

Molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Schizothoracinae (Teleostei: Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae) inferred from complete mitochondrial genomes

The schizothoracine fishes, members of the Teleost order Cypriniformes, are one of the most diverse group of cyprinids in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau and surrounding regions. However, taxonomy and phylogeny of these species remain unclear. In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Schizopygopsis malacanthus. We also used the newly obtained sequence, together with 31 published schizothoracine mitochondrial genomes that represent eight schizothoracine genera and six outgroup taxa to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of the subfamily Schizothoracinae by different partitioned maximum likelihood and partitioned Bayesian inference at nucleotide and amino acid levels. The schizothoracine fishes sampled form a strongly supported monophyletic group that is the sister taxon to Barbus barbus. A sister group relationship between the primitive schizothoracine group and the specialized schizothoracine group + the highly specialized schizothoracine group was supported. Moreover, members of the specialized schizothoracine group and the genera Schizothorax, Schizopygopsis, and Gymnocypris were found to be paraphyletic.
