RECENT ADVANCES IN FERTILIZATION ECOLOGY OF MACROALGAE1

Our understanding of natural patterns of fertilization in seaweeds has increased substantially over the last 10 years due to new approaches and methods to characterize the nature and frequency of fertilization processes in situ, to recognize the conditions and mechanisms enhancing fertilization success, and to anticipate population and community consequences of the patterns of natural fertilization. Successful reproduction in many species depends on a delicate juxtaposition of abiotic and biotic conditions. Important abiotic factors are those triggering gamete release (e.g. single or interacting effects of light quality and water movement) and those affecting gamete viability or concentrations (e.g. salinity effects on polyspermy blocks; gamete dilution due to water movement). Examples of important biotic components are synchronous gamete release, efficiency of polyspermy‐blocking mechanisms, population density of sexually fertile thalli, interparent distances, and male‐to‐female ratios. Field data indicate fertilization frequencies of 70%–100% in broadcasting‐type seaweeds (e.g. fucoids) and 30%–80% in brooding‐type (red) algae. Red algal values are higher than previously thought and challenge presently accepted explanations for their complex life histories. Important population and community questions raised by the recent findings relate to the magnitude of gene flow and exchange occurring in many micropopulations that seemingly breed during periods of isolation, the physiological basis and population effects of male‐to‐male competition and sexual selection during fertilization of brooding seaweeds, and the effects of massive gamete release, especially in holocarpic seaweeds, on benthic and planktonic communities. Comparative studies in other algal groups are now needed to test the generality of the above patterns, to provide critical pieces of information still missing in our understanding of natural fertilization processes, and to elucidate the evolutionary consequences of the different modes of reproduction (e.g. brooders vs. broadcasters).     

种子重量的生态学研究进展

作为植物生活史中的一个关键性特征,种子重量与其它许多植物性状和生态因子有关,种子重量的分异与其它一些植物性状及环境的变化关系在进化生物学上已经成为一个非常有意义的研究内容,且具有一定的实践意义。种子重量被发现与下列的一些植物学和群落学性状有关:植物的生活型、种子的散布能力、种子的散布方式、植物的高度、植物的冠幅、植物的比叶面积、植物的寿命、动物的捕食、植被中植物的数量或多度、土壤中种子的数量或多度、种子的休眠、种子在土壤中的持久性和植物的净初级生产力等,另外生态因子如降雨、温度、坡向、海拔、经度、纬度、光强和干扰等都影响种子的重量。种子的重量被认为是在大量小种子和少量大种子之间的进化折衷,在一定的能量限度内,较大重量的种子一般具有较少的数量,而较小重量的种子一般数量较多,这是种子重量和数量方面具有的一种反向关系。与其它性状相比,很多研究都表明种子重量和植物的生活型的关系密切。没有散布结构或风散布的种子比以动物和水作为散布媒介的种子重量要小。种子重量与捕食的关系现发现有3种格局。种子重量和形状与种子在土壤中的持久性的关系有4种格局。在干旱和阴暗的环境条件下,种子有变大的趋势。大重量种子比小种子赋予幼苗较优势的竞争地位,其原理尚有争论,尚不清楚是否是幼苗阶段的竞争决定了世界上大部分植被类型的物种组成。未来的研究方向主要有以下几个方面:1) 种子重量与植物系统学相结合,探索种子重量的变化规律;2)调查群落三向(纬度、经度和海拔)性的种子重量谱变化规律;3) 群落演替与群落种子重量谱的变化;4) 种子重量与群落中植物个体和种子的数量的关系及机理研究;5) 微生境、微地形如坡向、坡位和林间隙等对种子重量的影响;6) 全球气候变化和种子重量变化的关系。     

Multilocus genotypic data reveal high genetic diversity and low population genetic structure of Iranian indigenous sheep

Iranian livestock diversity is still largely unexplored, in spite of the interest in the populations historically reared in this country located near the Fertile Crescent, a major livestock domestication centre. In this investigation, the genetic diversity and differentiation of 10 Iranian indigenous fat‐tailed sheep breeds were investigated using 18 microsatellite markers. Iranian breeds were found to host a high level of diversity. This conclusion is substantiated by the large number of alleles observed across loci (average 13.83, range 7–22) and by the high within‐breed expected heterozygosity (average 0.75, range 0.72–0.76). Iranian sheep have a low level of genetic differentiation, as indicated by the analysis of molecular variance, which allocated a very small proportion (1.67%) of total variation to the between‐population component, and by the small fixation index (F_ST = 0.02). Both Bayesian clustering and principal coordinates analysis revealed the absence of a detectable genetic structure. Also, no isolation by distance was observed through comparison of genetic and geographical distances. In spite of high within‐breed variation, signatures of inbreeding were detected by the F_IS indices, which were positive in all and statistically significant in three breeds. Possible factors explaining the patterns observed, such as considerable gene flow and inbreeding probably due to anthropogenic activities in the light of population management and conservation programmes, are discussed.     

SPECIES FLOCK IN THE NORTH AMERICAN GREAT LAKES: MOLECULAR ECOLOGY OF LAKE NIPIGON CISCOES (TELEOSTEI: COREGONIDAE: COREGONUS)

Studies on north temperate fish species indicate that new habitat availability following the last ice sheet retreat has promoted ecological speciation in postglacial lakes. Extensive ecophenotypic polymorphisms observed among the North American Great Lakes ciscoes suggest that this fish group has radiated through trophic adaptation and reproductive isolation. This study aims at relating the ecomorphological and genetic polymorphisms expressed by the Lake Nipigon ciscoes to evaluate the likelihood of an intralacustrine divergence driven by the exploitation of alternative resources. Morphological variation and trophic and spatial niches are characterized and contrasted among 203 individuals. Genetic variation at six microsatellite loci is also analyzed to appraise the extent of genetic differentiation among these morphotypes. Ecomorphological data confirm the existence of four distinct morphotypes displaying various levels of trophic and depth niche overlap and specialization. However, ecological and morphological variations were not coupled as expected, suggesting that trophic morphology is not always predictive of ecology. Although extensive genetic variability was observed, little genetic differentiation was found among morphotypes, with only one morph being slightly but significantly differentiated. Contrasting patterns of morphological, ecological, and genetic polymorphisms did not support the hypothesis of ecological speciation: the most ecologically different forms were morphologically most similar, while the only genetically differentiated morph was the least ecologically specialized. The low levels of genetic differentiation and the congruence between θ and φ estimates altogether suggest a recent (most likely postglacial) process of divergence and/or high gene flow among morphs A, C, and D, whereas higher φ estimates for comparison involving morph B suggest that this morph may be derived from another colonizing lineage exchanging little genes with the other morphs. Patterns of ecophenotypic and genetic diversity are also compatible with a more complex evolutionary history involving hybridization and introgression.

Genetic variability and differentiation of hypogean Cyprinid fishes from Somalia

The genetic structure of populations of two hypogean Somali cyprinid species was compared by analysing genetic variation at 30 allozyme loci. The two species, Phreatichthys andruzzii and Barbopsis devecchii , are of particular interest, representing two different steps in adaptation to cave life, as indicated by several morphological features including eye regression. Phreatichthys is completely anophthalmic, while Barbopsis shows a highly variable microphthalmia. Results showed a close relationship between Phreatichthys and Barbopsis , suggesting their origin from a common epigean ancestor. Population structure of the two species differs and levels of gene flow are much higher between the Barbopsis populations than between the Phreatichthys populations. Two possible scenarios leading to the current situation are hypothesized.

Microsatellite DNA Variation of the Gametophyte Clones Isolated from Introduced Laminaria japonica （Phaeophyta） and L. Iongissima of China and Varieties Derived from them

The variation of 90 Laminaria gametophyte clones representing the introduced Laminaria japonica （Group 1） and Laminaria Iongissima （Group 2）, the varieties of L. japonica （Group 3） and the varieties derived from interspecific hybrids （Group 4） was determined with 18 microsatellite markers. The allelic diversity and Nei＇s gene diversity of Group 1 were significantly higher than those of Group 2 （2.9 vs. 1.8 and 0.414 vs. 0.161, respectively）, demonstrating that the variation of the introduced L. japonica is richer than that of L. Iongissima. Both allelic diversity and Nei＇s gene diversity of Group 3 were lower than those of Group 1, indicating that only a portion of variation of L. japonica was incorporated into the varieties of L. japonica. Significant genetic differentiation was detected between four groups and between female （Population 1 ） and male （Population 2） gametophyte clones in each group. The variation among groups accounted for 39.95%, while that among populations accounted for 21.65% of the total. The genetic distance between Group 1 and Group 4 was obviously longer than that between Group 2 and Group 4 （0.686 vs. 0.291）, indicating that maternal gametophyte clone contributed more variation to the hybrids than the paternal gametophyte clone did.
