土佐鳒鲆（Psettina tosana） ——中国大陆新记录种和丝指鳒鲆 （P. filimana）的有效性厘定

依据《中国动物志: 硬骨鱼纲 鲽形目》,本研究近年在中国大陆从东海至南海海域采集到14尾样品,前期鉴定为鲆科（Bothidae）鳒鲆属（Psettina）的丝指鳒鲆（P. filimana Li &Wang, 1982）,但同时发现这些样品也具有土佐鳒鲆（P. tosana Amaoka, 1963）的主要特征。因此,有必要明确这些样品种名以及丝指鳒鲆和土佐鳒鲆之间的关系。为了准确的鉴定这些样品,本研究采用和模式标本形态特征比较分析以及COI分子条形码K2P遗传距离比较的方法进行鉴定。首先将采集样品的29个形态特征分别与21或25个丝指鳒鲆或土佐鳒鲆模式标本特征进行了比较,然后比较了两个模式标本的18个形态特征。结果表明,所有土佐鳒鲆原始描述的可数和可量特征均与丝指鳒鲆模式标本及本研究样品的形态特征为重叠或包含关系,描述性状为一致;同时本研究以胸鳍条长度不同这一李思忠（1987）区别两种类的特征为依据,分别选取了胸鳍条突出成丝状2尾和不显著突出成丝状3尾共5尾代表样品进行COI条形码分析,获得的这些序列的K2P遗传距离为0.000 0 ~ 0.004 7,并将这些序列与GenBank上已有的土佐鳒鲆序列进行了比对,K2P遗传距离为0.002 3 ~ 0.007 0。基于Hebert等（2003）提出的种间遗传距离通常大于0.02的物种鉴定标准,本研究的分子结果显示,前期鉴定为丝指鳒鲆的本研究样品与土佐鳒鲆不存在种间差异。因此,基于形态特征和COI分子条形码结果均支持本研究样品与丝指鳒鲆和土佐鳒鲆为同一物种,根据《国际动物命名法规》中的优先权原则,丝指鳒鲆应为土佐鳒鲆的次同物异名。土佐鳒鲆为首次在中国大陆发现,故为新记录种。同时,根据本研究11尾样品的形态特征数据并整合前人研究结果对土佐鳒鲆的形态特征进行了再描述。     

Yeast species associated with orange juice: evaluation of different identification methods

Five different methods were used to identify yeast isolates from a variety of citrus juice sources. A total of 99 strains, including reference strains, were identified using a partial sequence of the 26S rRNA gene, restriction pattern analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region (5.8S-ITS), classical methodology, the RapID Yeast Plus system, and API 20C AUX. Twenty-three different species were identified representing 11 different genera. Distribution of the species was considerably different depending on the type of sample. Fourteen different species were identified from pasteurized single-strength orange juice that had been contaminated after pasteurization (PSOJ), while only six species were isolated from fresh-squeezed, unpasteurized orange juice (FSOJ). Among PSOJ isolates, Candida intermedia and Candida parapsilosis were the predominant species. Hanseniaspora occidentalis and Hanseniaspora uvarum represented up to 73% of total FSOJ isolates. Partial sequence of the 26S rRNA gene yielded the best results in terms of correct identification, followed by classical techniques and 5.8S-ITS analysis. The commercial identification kits RapID Yeast Plus system and API 20C AUX were able to correctly identify only 35 and 13% of the isolates, respectively. Six new 5.8S-ITS profiles were described, corresponding to Clavispora lusitaniae, Geotrichum citri-aurantii, H. occidentalis, H. vineae, Pichia fermentans, and Saccharomycopsis crataegensis. With the addition of these new profiles to the existing database, the use of 5.8S-ITS sequence became the best tool for rapid and accurate identification of yeast isolates from orange juice.     

Adaptibility of Diplostomum cercariae in carp and the effect of a prior infestation

Experiments on the infection of carp fry with cercariae of Diplostomum have shown that cercariae of Diplostomum spathaceum can penetrate crystalline lens of larvae of these fishes in three days after their hatching and that the adaptability of cercariae of D. paracaudum to carp is much higher than that of cercariae of D. spathaceum. After the first infection with cercariae a relative postinfectious immunity against infection with cercariae of this or close species of this genus arises in carp fry.     

奥利亚罗非鱼与尼罗罗非鱼rDNA内转录间隔区序列特征

核糖体DNA内转录间隔区(internal transcribed spacers,ITS)是经常被用作种和种群水平系统研究的分子序列.本文分离了奥利亚罗非鱼(Oreochromis aureus)、尼罗罗非鱼(O.niloticus)内转录间隔区,包括部分185序列,ITS1、5.8S、ITS2全序列及部分28S序列.4尾奥利亚罗非鱼的10个克隆序列分析表明,其存在长度不同的a、b两种类型ITS1.a型长为536 bp,GC含量为69.96%;b型长为520 bp,GC含量为69.04%～69.42%.4尾尼罗罗非鱼的10个克隆序列分析表明,其只存在a型ITS1,长为536～540 bp,GC含量为69.42%～70.19%.与b型ITS1相比,a型ITS1在16～31 nt有16 bp片段(GGCCCGCCTCGGCGC)的插入.奥利亚罗非鱼和尼罗罗非鱼共20条ITS序列中,5.8S长度均为157 bp,GC含量为56.69%～57.96%;ITS2为408 bp,GC含量为72.79%～74.26%.奥利亚罗非鱼和尼罗罗非鱼ITS区序列相似性高达98.2%,表明这两种罗非鱼亲缘关系很近.此外,本文对14尾奥利亚罗非鱼、15尾尼罗罗非鱼以及15尾奥尼罗非鱼[O.aureus(♂)×O.niloticus(♀)]ITS1的扩增结果显示,奥利亚罗非鱼均有a、b两种类型ITS1;15尾尼罗罗非鱼中1尾为a、b两类型ITS1,14尾为a型ITS1;15尾奥尼罗非鱼中则有6尾具有a、b两类型ITS1,9尾为单一的a型ITS1.分析表明,奥利亚罗非鱼在ITS1这个位点一致性高,但尼罗罗非鱼中有1尾混杂了奥利亚罗非鱼的基因,同时也说明分子生物学手段应用于种质鉴定比形态学手段更为精确.     

Asterotremella gen. nov. albida, an anamorphic tremelloid yeast isolated from the agarics Asterophora lycoperdoides and Asterophora parasitica

Using a genotypic approach (PCR-fingerprinting, DNA/DNA reassociation, partial sequences of the 26S rDNA gene, complete sequences of the 18S rDNA gene, and sequences of the internal transcribed spacers) five tremelloid yeast isolates from the agarics Asterophora lycoperdoides and A. parasitica were shown to be conspecific with Cryptococcus ramirezgomezianus. It was not possible to distinguish the yeast strains from A. lycoperdoides and A. parasitica using sequences from the intergenic spacer (IGS1). Phylogeny based on the 26S (D1/D2-domain), ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 and complete 18S rDNA demonstrated that C. ramirezgomezianus is closely related to several additional Cryptococcus species (C. humicola, C. longus, C. musci, C. pseudolongus) within the Trichosporonales. A new genus, Asterotremella, and a new family, Asterotremellaceae were introduced for Cryptococcus species clustering within the Trichosporonales having a ubiquinone Q-9. Cryptococcus ramirezgomezianus is a synonym of Asterotremella albida.     

Identification of species in the genus Pichia by restriction of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) and the 5.8S ribosomal DNA gene

In this study, the variability within the ribosomal DNA region spanning the internal transcribed spacers ITS1 and ITS2 and the 5.8S gene (5.8S-ITS rDNA) was used to differentiate species in the genus Pichia. The 5.8S-ITS rDNA region was PCR-amplified and the PCR product digested with the enzymes CfoI, HinfI, and HaeIII. The variability in the size of the amplified product and in the restriction patterns enabled differentiation between species in the genus Pichia, and between Pichia species and yeast species from other genera in the Yeast-id database (). Moreover, the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns of the 5.8S-ITS enabled misidentified strains to be detected and revealed genetic heterogeneity between strains within the Pichia membranifaciens and Pichia nakazawae species. Ultimately, the RFLP patterns of the 5.8S-ITS rDNA failed to differentiate between some Pichia and Candida species that could be distinguished on the basis of the sequence of the 5.8S-ITS rRNA region or the sequence of the D1/D2 domain of the 26S rDNA gene.     

Nuclear, mitochondrial and plastid gene phylogenies of Dinophysis miles (Dinophyceae): evidence of variable types of chloroplasts

The Dinophysis genus is an ecologically and evolutionarily important group of marine dinoflagellates, yet their molecular phylogenetic positions and ecological characteristics such as trophic modes remain poorly understood. Here, a population of Dinophysis miles var. indica was sampled from South China Sea in March 2010. Nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) SSU, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 and LSU, mitochondrial genes encoding cytochrome B (cob) and cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (cox1), and plastid rDNA SSU were PCR amplified and sequenced. Phylogenetic analyses based on cob, cox1, and the nuclear rRNA regions showed that D. miles was closely related to D. tripos and D. caudata while distinct from D. acuminata. Along with morphology the LSU and ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 molecular data confirmed that this population was D. miles var. indica. Furthermore, the result demonstrated that ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 fragment was the most effective region to distinguish D. miles from other Dinophysis species. Three distinct types of plastid rDNA sequences were detected, belonging to plastids of a cryptophyte, a haptophyte, and a cyanobacterium, respectively. This is the first documentation of three photosynthetic entities associated with a Dinophysis species. While the cyanobacterial sequence likely represented an ectosymbiont of the D. miles cells, the detection of the cryptophyte and haptophyte plastid sequences indicates that the natural assemblage of D. miles likely retain more than one type of plastids from its prey algae for temporary use in photosynthesis. The result, together with recent findings of plastid types in other Dinophysis species, suggests that more systematic research is required to understand the complex nutritional physiology of this genus of dinoflagellates.     

Analysis of nrDNA polymorphism in closely related diploid sexual, tetraploid sexual and polyploid agamospermous species

Nuclear sequences of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region of rDNA may be an important source of phylogenetically informative data provided that nrDNA is cloned and the character of sequence variation of clones is properly analyzed. nrDNA of selected Taraxacum sections was studied to show sequence variation differences among diploid sexual, tetraploid sexual and polyploid agamospermous species. We examined nucleotide characteristics, substitution pattern, secondary structure, and the phylogenetic utility of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 from 301 clones of 32 species representing 11 sections. The most divergent sequences of ITS1&2 differed by 17.1% and in 5.8S only by 3.7%. The ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 characteristics, integrity and also stability of secondary structures confirmed that pseudogenes are not responsible for the above variation. The within-individual polymorphism of clones implies that the concerted evolution of ITS cistron of agamospermous polyploid Taraxacum is remarkably suppressed. Sequences of ITS clones proved to be a useful tool for mapping pathways of complex reticulation (polyploid hybridity) in agamospermous Taraxacum.

Ribosomal DNA polymorphisms in the yeast Geotrichum candidum

The dimorphic yeast Geotrichum candidum (teleomorph: Galactomyces candidus) is commonly used to inoculate washed-rind and bloomy-rind cheeses. However, little is known about the phylogenetic lineage of this microorganism. We have sequenced the complete 18S, 5.8S, 26S ribosomal RNA genes and their internal transcribed spacers (ITS1) and ITS2 regions (5126 nucleotides) from 18 G. candidum strains from various environmental niches, with a focus on dairy strains. Multiple sequence alignments revealed the presence of 60 polymorphic sites, which is generally unusual for ribosomal DNA (rDNA) within a given species because of the concerted evolution mechanism. This mechanism drives genetic homogenization to prevent the divergent evolution of rDNA copies within individuals. While the polymorphisms observed were mainly substitutions, one insertion/deletion (indel) polymorphism was detected in ITS1. No polymorphic sites were detected downstream from this indel site, that is, in 5.8S and ITS2. More surprisingly, many sequence electrophoregrams generated during the sequencing of the rDNA had dual peaks, suggesting that many individuals exhibited intragenomic rDNA variability. The ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 regions of four strains were cloned. The sequence analysis of 68 clones revealed 32 different ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 variants within these four strains. Depending on the strain, from four to twelve variants were detected, indicating that multiple rDNA copies were present in the genomes of these G. candidum strains. These results contribute to the debate concerning the use of the ITS region for barcoding fungi and suggest that community profiling techniques based on rDNA should be used with caution.     

Identification of species of the genus Candida by analysis of the 5.8S rRNA gene and the two ribosomal internal transcribed spacers

The PCR amplification and subsequent restriction analysis of the ribosomal region spanning the internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) and the 5.8S rRNA gene is applied to the identification of yeasts belonging to the genus Candida. This methodology has previously been used for the identification of some species of this genus, but in the present work this application has been applied to the identification and characterisation of a greater number of species of the genus Candida, with a special survey of species of clinical and biotechnological interest. Among the species of the genus Candida, the high variability observed, both in the length of the amplified region (ranging between 390 and 900 bp) and in their restriction patterns, allows the unequivocal identification to the species level, with the exception of the group of species that comprises C. membranifaciens, C. conglobata, C. atlantica, C. atmosphaerica, and C. oleophila, that required the sequencing of the D1/D2 domain of the 26S rRNA gene or the 5.8S-ITS region for their proper differentiation. The 5.8S-ITS restriction analysis also failed in the differentiation of species within the pairs C.aaseri/C.butyri,C.fructus/C.musae,C.santamariae var. santamariae / C. beechii and C. zeylanoides / C. krissii. In this case, the high sequence similarities obtained for their 26S D1/D2 domain and the 5.8S-ITS region indicate that each pair of species should be considered as a single species. The main purpose of this work is to generate a database for a high number of yeast species, of both biotechnological and clinical interest, and to facilitate their easy, fast, and reliable identification. The present work improves the database available online at the IATA web page (http://motor.edinfo.es/iata/) with the patterns of 75 species belonging to the genus Candida.
