Introgression and incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) are two of the main sources of gene‐tree incongruence; both can confound the assessment of phylogenetic relationships among closely related species. The Triatoma phyllosoma species group is a clade of partially co‐distributed and cross‐fertile Chagas disease vectors. Despite previous efforts, the phylogeny of this group remains unresolved, largely because of substantial gene‐tree incongruence. Here, we sequentially address introgression and ILS to provide a robust phylogenetic hypothesis for the T. phyllosoma species group. To identify likely instances of introgression prior to molecular scrutiny, we assessed biogeographic data and information on fertility of inter‐specific crosses. We first derived a few explicit hybridization hypotheses by considering the degree of spatial overlap within each species pair. Then, we assessed the plausibility of these hypotheses in the light of each species pair's cross‐fertility. Using this contextual information, we evaluated mito‐nuclear (cyt b, ITS‐2) gene‐tree incongruence and found evidence suggesting introgression within two species pairs. Finally, we modeled ILS using a Bayesian multispecies coalescent approach and either (a) a “complete” dataset with all the specimens in our sample, or (b) a “filtered” dataset without putatively introgressed specimens. The “filtered tree” had higher posterior‐probability support, as well as more plausible topology and divergence times, than the “complete tree.” Detecting and filtering out introgression and modeling ILS allowed us to derive an improved phylogenetic hypothesis for the T. phyllosoma species group. Our results illustrate how biogeographic and ecological‐reproductive contextual information can help clarify the systematics and evolution of recently diverged taxa prone to introgression and ILS. 相似文献

Interspecific gene flow is pervasive throughout the tree of life. Although detecting gene flow between populations has been facilitated by new analytical approaches, determining the timing and geography of hybridization has remained difficult, particularly for historical gene flow. A geographically explicit phylogenetic approach is needed to determine the overlap of ancestral populations. In this study, we performed population genetic analyses, species delimitation, simulations and a recently developed approach of species tree diffusion to infer the phylogeographic history, timing and geographic extent of gene flow in lizards of the Sceloporus spinosus group. The two species in this group, S. spinosus and S. horridus, are distributed in eastern and western portions of Mexico, respectively, but populations of these species are sympatric in the southern Mexican highlands. We generated data consisting of three mitochondrial genes and eight nuclear loci for 148 and 68 individuals, respectively. We delimited six lineages in this group, but found strong evidence of mito‐nuclear discordance in sympatric populations of S. spinosus and S. horridus owing to mitochondrial introgression. We used coalescent simulations to differentiate ancestral gene flow from secondary contact, but found mixed support for these two models. Bayesian phylogeography indicated more than 60% range overlap between ancestral S. spinosus and S. horridus populations since the time of their divergence. Isolation–migration analyses, however, revealed near‐zero levels of gene flow between these ancestral populations. Interpreting results from both simulations and empirical data indicate that despite a long history of sympatry among these two species, gene flow in this group has only recently occurred. 相似文献

Diverse Legionella‐Like Bacteria Associated with Testate Amoebae of the Genus Arcella (Arcellinida: Amoebozoa) 下载免费PDF全文

Diverse species of Legionella and Legionella‐like amoebal pathogens (LLAPs) have been identified as intracellular bacteria in many amoeboid protists. There are, however, other amoeboid groups such as testate amoeba for which we know little about their potential to host such bacteria. In this study, we assessed the occurrence and diversity of Legionella spp. in cultures and environmental isolates of freshwater arcellinid testate amoebae species, Arcella hemispherica, Arcella intermedia, and Arcella vulgaris, via 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that A. hemispherica, A. intermedia, and A. vulgaris host Legionella‐like bacteria with 94–98% identity to other Legionella spp. based on NCBI BLAST search. Phylogenetic analysis placed Legionella‐like Arcella‐associated bacteria (LLAB) in three different clusters within a tree containing all other members of Legionella and LLAPs. The intracellular localization of the Legionella within Arcella hosts was confirmed using FISH with a Legionella‐specific probe. This study demonstrates that the host range of Legionella and Legionella‐like bacteria in the Amoebozoa extends beyond members of “naked” amoebae species, with members of the testate amoebae potentially serving an ecological role in the dispersal, protection, and replication of Legionella spp. in natural environments. 相似文献

Aim To reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of the four species of the genus Sarda (Sarda sarda, Sarda orientalis, Sarda australis and Sarda chilensis) and their phylogeographic history in the context of historical and ecological biogeography. Also, to reconstruct within‐species phylogenetic relationships to test whether the North Atlantic and Mediterranean populations of Atlantic bonito (S. sarda) warrant subspecies status, and the validity of the allopatric northern and southern populations of eastern Pacific bonito (S. chiliensis), recognized as S. chiliensis lineolata and S. chiliensis chiliensis. Location Representative samples of all four Sarda species collected world‐wide were analysed. Methods Phylogenetic inference was carried out with neighbour‐joining, maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood, employing nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region I (CR‐I) and of the single‐copy nuclear DNA (nDNA) Tmo‐4c4 gene. Analysis of molecular variance was used on the mtDNA data to estimate the extent of geographic population structuring. Results Gene trees derived from mtDNA and nDNA data yielded concordant phylogenies that support the monophyly of the genus Sarda. The following sibling pairs received strong statistical support: striped bonito (S. orientalis) with Australian bonito (S. australis), and Atlantic bonito (S. sarda) with eastern Pacific bonito (S. chiliensis). Furthermore, the origin of S. sarda mtDNA is paraphyletic with respect to S. chiliensis, and these results are indicative of introgression. The analysis of Tmo‐4c4 sequences corroborates the ancestral hybridization between these allopatric species. Comparisons of north‐west Atlantic and Mediterranean populations of S. sarda using mtDNA CR‐I data revealed substantial genetic differentiation. By contrast, no differences between the putative northern and southern allopatric subspecies of S. chiliensis were detected. Main conclusions The monophyly of the genus Sarda as indicated by morphology is corroborated using both molecular markers. However, molecular phylogenies depicted a paraphyletic relationship between S. sarda and S. chiliensis. This phylogeographical relationship is better explained by an ancestral introgression facilitated by trans‐Arctic contact during the Pleistocene. The pronounced genetic differentiation between S. sarda samples from the north‐west Atlantic and the Mediterranean is consistent with the differentiation of these two regions, but not with the amphi‐Atlantic speciation hypothesis. Finally, the S. chiliensis lineolata and S. chiliensis chiliensis subspecies status is not supported by the molecular data. 相似文献
