Relationships among seven species of the Aedes scutellaris subgroup and four of the Aedes albopictus subgroup were determined using restriction fragment analysis of mtDNA. Considerable polymorphism was found among species, with an average proportion of 0.338 restriction fragments being shared among them. Fitch-Margoliash, Wagner parsimony and UPGMA analyses revealed that the phylogeny based on mtDNA was only partially congruent with that based on allozymes and morphology. All three analyses, however, suggested that three species pairs, A. flavopictus-A. pseudalbopictus, A. pseudoscutellaris-A. riversi, and A. albopictus-A. polynesiensis were monophyletic with regard to their mtDNA. The results indicated that although the species in the A. scutellaris and the A. albopictus subgroups do not exhibit significant morphological divergence, their mtDNA has diverged extensively. 相似文献

DNA sequence data from the chloroplast noncoding rpl16 intron are used to address phylogenetic relationships among the major lineages of the grass family, with particular emphasis on the highly heterogeneous subfamily Bambusoideae and the basal lineages. Thirty-five grass sequences representing all six currently recognized major groups of the family and one outgroup sequence were analyzed using both parsimony and distance methods. The phylogenetic analyses indicated: (1) Puelia, a traditionally isolated bambusoid genus, is the most basal lineage in the BOP clade (Bambusoideae, Oryzoideae, and Pooideae); (2) the bambusoid clade is a sister group to the pooid clade; and (3) the monophyletic oryzoid clade is well separated from the bambusoid clade. The study further confirmed the recognition of two primary groups in the grass family: the BOP clade and the PACC clade (Panicoideae, Arundinoideae, Chloridoideae, and Centothecoideae); it also provided further evidence that the traditional subfamily Bambusoideae is highly heterogeneous and phylogenetically unacceptable. The data support Streptochaeteae, Anomochloeae, and Phareae as the most basal lineages among the extant grasses. Within the BOP clade, oryzoids and pooids are confirmed as two monophyletic clades, but the bambusoid clade, including only the woody bamboo tribe Bambuseae and the herbaceous bamboo tribe Olyreae, is relatively weakly supported. The study also indicated that the chloroplast noncoding region sequence data could be useful in phylogenetic analysis at relatively high taxonomic levels. 相似文献

The first empirically supported phylogenetic hypothesis of relationships for the southern African endemic butterfly tribe Dirini is presented. Data derived from the morphology and ecology of the adults and immature stages (33 characters), and portions of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and the nuclear genes elongation factor 1α (EF1α) and wingless (WG) (totalling 1734 bp) were used to infer the relationships of the in‐group genera. An expanded molecular dataset using four genera from the Nymphalini and Satyrini to root the tree, and three genera from the Melanitini to test the monophyly of the tribe, was analysed using parsimony and Bayesian methods. Estimates of divergence times were calculated using two fossil calibrations under a relaxed molecular clock model. The monophyly of the tribe and each in‐group genus were strongly supported. Key findings are the sister‐taxon relationship of Aeropetes and Tarsocera, the apparent simultaneous or nearly simultaneous radiation of four lineages, the polyphyly of the species within Torynesis, and the apparent trans‐Atlantic dispersal of the ancestors of Manataria about 40 Ma. Estimates of divergence times indicate that the tribe has undergone two major radiations since its origin: the first when they left forest habitats in the mid–late Oligocene, shortly after the radiation of the grasses (Poaceae), and the second in the early‐middle Pliocene, coinciding with the aridification of southern Africa and the spread of conditions that favoured C4 grasses over the C3 grasses that dirine larvae prefer to eat. The high species diversity within the tribe appears to be partly a taxonomic artefact that may have resulted from the misinterpretation of climate‐related phenotypic variation within extant species. Relocation and breeding experiments should test this hypothesis. 相似文献

The genus Peridinium Ehrenb. comprises a group of highly diversified dinoflagellates. Their morphological taxonomy has been established over the last century. Here, we examined relationships within the genus Peridinium, including Peridinium bipes F. Stein sensu lato, based on a molecular phylogeny derived from nuclear rDNA sequences. Extensive rDNA analyses of nine selected Peridinium species showed that intraspecies genetic variation was considerably low, but interspecies genetic divergence was high (>1.5% dissimilarity in the nearly complete 18S sequence; >4.4% in the 28S rDNA D1/D2). The 18S and 28S rDNA Bayesian tree topologies showed that Peridinium species grouped according to their taxonomic positions and certain morphological characters (e.g., epithecal plate formula). Of these groups, the quinquecorne group (plate formula of 3′, 2a, 7″) diverged first, followed by the umbonatum group (4′, 2a, 7″) and polonicum group (4′, 1a, 7″). Peridinium species with a plate formula of 4′, 3a, 7″ diverged last. Thus, 18S and 28S rDNA D1/D2 sequences are informative about relationships among Peridinium species. Statistical analyses revealed that the 28S rDNA D1/D2 region had a significantly higher genetic divergence than the 18S rDNA region, suggesting that the former as DNA markers may be more suitable for sequence‐based delimitation of Peridinium. The rDNA sequences had sufficient discriminative power to separate P. bipes f. occultaum (Er. Lindem.) M. Lefèvre and P. bipes f. globosum Er. Lindem. into two distinct species, even though these taxa are morphologically only marginally discriminated by spines on antapical plates and the shape of red bodies during the generation of cysts. Our results suggest that 28S rDNA can be used for all Peridinium species to make species‐level taxonomic distinctions, allowing improved taxonomic classification of Peridinium. 相似文献

The genus Coleochaete Bréb. is considered to be a key taxon in the evolution of green algae and embryophytes (land plants), but only a few of the approximately 15 species have been studied with molecular phylogenetic methods. We report here the sequences of the gene rbcL from six new cultures of Coleochaete and two of Chaetosphaeridium Klebahn. These sequences were combined with 32 additional sequences, and phylogenetic analyses were performed with maximum likelihood, distance optimality, and parsimony methods. Important subgroups within Coleochaete include two primary lineages, one marked by fully corticated zygotes and the other by naked or weakly corticated zygotes. In the first lineage there is a subclade with tightly joined filaments and distinctive (“T‐shaped”) cell division, an assemblage of strains that resembles the endophytic species Coleochaete nitellarum Jost, and a clade with loosely joined filaments and “Y‐shaped” cell divisions. Consistent with recent multigene phylogenies, these analyses support the monophyly of the Coleochaetales, place the Charales as the sister taxon to land plants, and indicate that Chaetosphaeridium is far more closely related to Coleochaete than to Mesostigma Lauterborn. 相似文献

Plastid sequences of the atpB-rbcL spacer and rbcL gene itself were used to evaluate their respective potential in reconstructing the phylogeny of 15 taxa from the tribe Rubieae (Rubiaceae). From our previous analyses using the atpB-rbcL spacer, the 15 selected taxa represent most of the variability of the tribe. Since this group is considered to be relatively recent (Upper Tertiary), it should allow the study of early dynamics of nucleotide substitutions in recent divergences. The results show that the spacer and rbcL inferred phylogenies are not totally congruent; the spacer trees are more similar to interpretations of morphological data. A comparative analysis of the pattern of nucleotide substitution of these two sequences in the Rubieae shows that (1) the overall rate of substitution is similar in the spacer and in rbcL, and the rate of synonymous substitution in rbcL is much higher; (2) the level of homoplasy is higher in rbcL than in the spacer matrix which shows a higher phylogenetic structure; and (3) the pattern of transition and transversion substitutions is different in the two sequences, and is not linear in rbcL. As a result of these observations, we suggest that (1) the spacer is evolving relatively slowly because of unsuspected, and phylogenetically important; selective constraints on its sequence; and (2) in the rbcL sequence, many sites, free of constraint, are changing at high rate, and some of these sites seem to have undergone multiple substitutions even in this recent tribe. This could explain the high level of homoplasy found in Rubieae rbcL sequences.

Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is a major cool season forage and turf grass in the temperate regions of the world. It is also a close relative of other important forage and turf grasses, including meadow fescue and the cultivated ryegrass species. Until now, no SSR markers have been developed from the tall fescue genome. We designed 157 EST-SSR primer pairs from tall fescue ESTs and tested them on 11 genotypes representing seven grass species. Nearly 92% of the primer pairs produced characteristic simple sequence repeat (SSR) bands in at least one species. A large proportion of the primer pairs produced clear reproducible bands in other grass species, with most success in the close taxonomic relatives of tall fescue. A high level of marker polymorphism was observed in the outcrossing species tall fescue and ryegrass (66%). The marker polymorphism in the self-pollinated species rice and wheat was low (43% and 38%, respectively). These SSR markers were useful in the evaluation of genetic relationships among the Festuca and Lolium species. Sequencing of selected PCR bands revealed that the nucleotide sequences of the forage grass genotypes were highly conserved. The two cereal species, particularly rice, had significantly different nucleotide sequences compared to the forage grasses. Our results indicate that the tall fescue EST-SSR markers are valuable genetic markers for the Festuca and Lolium genera. These are also potentially useful markers for comparative genomics among several grass species.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at . 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationships of Combretoideae (Combretaceae) inferred from plastid,nuclear gene and spacer sequences 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Phylogenetic relationships of the subfamily Combretoideae (Combretaceae) were studied based on DNA sequences of nuclear ribosomal
internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions, the plastid rbcL gene and the intergenic spacer between the psaA and ycf3 genes (PY-IGS), including 16 species of eight genera within two traditional tribes of Combretoideae, and two species of the
subfamily Strephonematoideae of Combretaceae as outgroups. Phylogenetic trees based on the three data sets (ITS, rbcL, and PY-IGS) were generated by using maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) analyses. Partition-homogeneity tests
indicated that the three data sets and the combined data set are homogeneous. In the combined phylogenetic trees, all ingroup
taxa are divided into two main clades, which correspond to the two tribes Laguncularieae and Combreteae. In the Laguncularieae
clade, two mangrove genera, Lumnitzera and Laguncularia, are shown to be sister taxa. In the tribe Combreteae, two major clades can be classified: one includes three genera Quisqualis, Combretum and Calycopteris, within which the monophyly of the tribe Combreteae sensu Engler and Diels including Quisqualis and Combretum is strongly supported, and this monophyly is then sister to the monotypic genus Calycopteris; another major clade includes three genera Anogeissus, Terminalia and Conocarpus. There is no support for the monophyly of Terminalia as it forms a polytomy with Anogeissus. This clade is sister to Conocarpus.

Using sequences from the plastid trnL-F region and nrDNA ITS, we investigated the phylogeny of the fleshy-fruited African tribe Haemantheae of the Amaryllidaceae across 19 species representing all genera of the tribe. ITS and a combined matrix produce the most resolute and well-supported tree with parsimony analysis. Two main clades are resolved, one comprising the monophyletic rhizomatous genera Clivia and Cryptostephanus, and a larger clade that unites Haemanthus and Scadoxus as sister genera to an Apodolirion/Gethyllis subclade. One of four included Gethyllis species, G. lanuginosa, resolves as sister to Apodolirion with ITS. Relationships among the Clivia species are not in agreement with a previous published phylogeny. Biogeographic analysis using the divergence/vicariance method roots the tribe in Eastern South Africa, with several subsequent dispersals to the winter rainfall Western Cape region. Chromosomal change from an ancestral 2n=22 (characteristic of Clivia) is associated with each main clade. Reduction in number has occurred in all but Cryptostephanus, which has 2n=24 chromosomes. Increasing the sampling across all of the species in the tribe will allow a more detailed understanding of the biogeographic patterns inherent in the parsimony topology, which undoubtedly reflect Quaternary climatic changes in Southern Africa. 相似文献

ABSTRACT We report the cloning and sequencing of 14 rbcS cDNAs in six species of Avena (Poaceae) with different genome and ploidy levels. The nucleotide sequences 504 bp long were aligned with the published sequences of cultivated hexaploid oat, wheat, barley, rye, rice and corn and subjected to cladistic and phenetic analyses. The parsimonious analysis generated a tree with a topology very similar to the phenogram generated by the Neighbor-Joining analysis based on the Jukes and Cantor distances. Within the monophyletic assemblage of the tribe Aveneae, consistent clades composed of rbcS clones belonging to different species are recognized. It is suggested that they correspond to orthologous genes belonging to different subfamilies, and that the “within-species?d homogenisation may have occurred at a slow rate with respect to species evolution. In the monophyletic group of Pooideae, the topologies place barley rbcS sequences closer to wheat and rye than to oat sequences. This grouping agrees with most taxonomic and phylogenetic views. 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationships within the grass family were studied using a newly obtained locus of the nuclear single copy gene topoisomerase 6 (Topo6) spanning the four exons 8–11 and the chloroplast matK gene. Data were evaluated using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods. All analyses showed genera Streptochaeta and Anomochloa as early diverging, followed by Pharus as sister to the rest of the Poaceae, and monophyly of the subfamily Anomochlooideae was supported by the nuclear dataset. The remaining grasses formed a strongly supported and monophyletic group, which split into the major clades BEP and PACMAD in the Topo6 analyses. Monophyly of the BEP clade was strongly supported by the Topo6 data. The results showed clearly incongruity between the two sets of data, such as the different subfamilial relationships of Bambusoideae, Ehrhartoideae and Pooideae. Most of the analysed species are representatives of subfamily Pooideae, which was analysed in more detail by PCR fragment length differences of another Topo6 region spanning the exons 17–19. Monophyly of Pooideae was strongly supported by the matK data, whereas the nuclear data placed Brachyelytrum outside of the remaining Pooideae. Relationships within the early evolutionary lineages remained largely unresolved in the phylogenetic trees, but the ‘core’ Pooideae (Aveneae/Poeae tribe complex and Hordeeae) were highly supported in all analyses. The differences in amplification lengths illustrate the tribe and subtribe classification of Pooideae. The comparatively conserved structure of the newly studied Topo6 region makes it a promising marker from the nuclear genome that could be successfully PCR-amplified to study higher-level phylogenetic relationships within grasses and perhaps between families within the order Poales. 相似文献

The phylogenetic relationships of subtribe Chloraeinae, a group of terrestrial orchids endemic to southern South America, have not been satisfactorily investigated. A previous molecular phylogenetic analysis based on plastid DNA supported the monophyly of Chloraeinae and Gavilea, but showed that Chloraea is non‐monophyletic and that the sole species of Bipinnula analysed is sister to Geoblasta. However, that analysis included only 18 of the 73 species belonging to this subtribe. Here, the phylogenetic relationships of Chloraeinae were assessed by analysing aproximately 7500 bp of nucleotide sequences from nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and plastid DNA (rbcL, matK, trnL‐trnF, rpoB‐trnC) for 42 species representing all four currently accepted genera of Chloraeinae and appropriate outgroups. Nuclear and plastid data were analysed separately and in combination using two different methods, namely parsimony and Bayesian inference. Our analyses support the monophyly of Chloraeinae and their inclusion in an expanded concept of Cranichideae, but none of the genera of Chloraeinae that includes more than one species is monophyletic. Gavilea and Bipinnula are paraphyletic, with Chloraea chica nested in Gavilea and Geoblasta penicillata in Bipinnula. As currently delimited, Chloraea is polyphyletic. The taxonomic changes proposed recently are for the most part not justifiable on phylogenetic grounds, except for recognition of the monotypic genus Correorchis. The lack of resolution for the relationships among species of ‘core’Chloraea suggests a relatively recent diversification of this group. The current generic classification is in need or revision, but additional study is advisable before carrying out further taxonomic changes. © 2012 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012, 168 , 258–277. 相似文献

The Augochlorini Beebe is a New World tribe of bees comprising 663 described species. Relationships among the genera of this monophyletic tribe remain uncertain. Here I provide a comprehensive phylogeny using morphological and molecular information. In all, 54 Augochlorini species plus 16 outgroups and 3017 molecular and 105 morphological characters were analysed. Sequences for four genes were analysed using Bayesian inference, maximum likelihood and parsimony. Morphological characters were taken from a literature review and analysed alone and in combination with molecular data using parsimony. The monophyly of Augochlorini and most genera is confirmed, with divergence of the main lineages of the tribe around 55–20 Ma. Seven clades were supported by most analyses and are here treated as genus‐level groups, as follows (combined analysis topology): (Corynura group, (Chlerogella group, (Rhinocorynura group, (Augochloropsis, (Megaloptidia group, (Neocorynura group, (Augochlora group, Megalopta group))))))). According to this topology, dim‐light foraging and cleptoparasitism arose three times in the tribe. According to my hypothesis, the diversification of Augochlorini may have begun as a response to vicariant events, including the split of the Neotropical/Andean regions and marine transgressions in the Amazon region. 相似文献

The Neotropical broad-nosed bats, genus Platyrrhinus, represent a well-defined monophyletic group of 14 recognized species. A recent study of morphological characters confirmed Platyrrhinus monophyly and species diagnosis, but offered little support to their intra-specific relationships. We conducted phylogenetic analyses of the genus, using dense taxonomic sampling in combination with four gene sequences representing both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA transmission systems. Our aim was to elucidate the phylogenetic structure among species, using the resulting 3341 bp of DNA. Maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference analyses produced similar topologies that confirm the monophyly of the genus Platyrrhinus and strongly support many previously unrecognized groups. Paraphyly of Platyrrhinus helleri and the unclear position of P. brachycephalus in the clades were also apparent in the data. Our biogeographical analysis suggests a Brazilian Shield origin for Platyrrhinus, followed by subsequent radiations of lineages in the Amazon Basin and Andes. Secondary dispersal from Amazonian and Andean centers is responsible for the Platyrrhinus inhabiting the Guianan Shield and the Pacific lowlands and Central America, respectively. 相似文献

On the basis of comparison of the cytochrome b gene nucleotide sequences from genetic databases, the possible phylogenetic relationships of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) among all major lineages of Salmoninae (Brachymystax, Parahucho, Salvelinus, Salmo, Parasalmo, and Oncorhynchus) were examined. Three different phylogenetic methods (UPGMA, NJ, and ML) yielded phylogenetic trees of essentially the same topology: (((Brachymystax, Parahucho), Salvelinus, Salmo), (Parasalmo, Oncorhynchus)). The results obtained using the maximum parsimony method were less clear. Apparently, the divergence of the main salmonid lineages occurred during a relatively short time period; hence, the number of synapomorphs marking the order of their divergence was extremely low. This may account for the relative failure to use the maximum parsimony method of phylogenetic reconstruction. The problem of concordance of mtDNA and species phylogenetic schemes is discussed. Their discrepancy in salmonids may be caused by interspecific introgressive hybridization. 相似文献

On the basis of 1,290 bp sequences of the chloroplast generbcL, a molecular phylogeny of seven of nine genera of the Celtidaceae and four of six genera of the Ulmaceae was produced. These
data were analyzed together with some other urticalean genera using three methods (i.e., maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood,
and neighbor joining methods). Maximum likelihood topology among 18 trees obtained indicated that the Urticales are monophyletic
with its common clade splitting basally into two: one leading to a line comprisingAmpelocera (traditionally placed in Celtidaceae) and Ulmaceae, and the other leading to a line comprising the remaining genera of Celtidaceae,
Moraceae, and other Urticales. Ulmaceae, to whichAmpelocera is a sister group, are monophyletic, as supported by many lines of morphological evidence. In contrast to Ulmaceae, the monophyly
of Celtidaceae (excludingAmpelocera) was not supported, and resolution of relationships of Celtidaceae with other Urticales, as well as of those within the family,
is left for future study. 相似文献

The phylogenetic relationships of Peniocereus (Cactaceae) species were studied using parsimony analyses of DNA sequence data. The plastid rpl16 and trnL-F regions were sequenced for 98 taxa including 17 species of Peniocereus, representatives from all genera of tribe Pachycereeae, four genera of tribe Hylocereeae, as well as from three additional
outgroup genera of tribes Calymmantheae, Notocacteae, and Trichocereeae. Phylogenetic analyses support neither the monophyly
of Peniocereus as currently circumscribed, nor the monophyly of tribe Pachycereeae since species of Peniocereus subgenus Pseudoacanthocereus are embedded within tribe Hylocereeae. Furthermore, these results show that the eight species of Peniocereus subgenus Peniocereus (Peniocereus sensu stricto) form a well-supported clade within subtribe Pachycereinae; P. serpentinus is also a member of this subtribe, but is sister to Bergerocactus. Moreover, Nyctocereus should be resurrected as a monotypic genus. Species of Peniocereus subgenus Pseudoacanthocereus are positioned among species of Acanthocereus within tribe Hylocereeae, indicating that they may be better classified within that genus. A number of morphological and
anatomical characters, especially related to the presence or absence of dimorphic branches, are discussed to support these
relationships. 相似文献

Historically, Pappophoreae included the genera Cottea, Enneapogon, Kaokochloa, Pappophorum and Schmidtia. Some authors consider this tribe as a well-supported monophyletic group; while other evidences reveals Pappophoreae as polyphyletic, with Pappophorum separated from the rest of the tribe. When the latter happens, it can form a clade with Tridens flavus. Molecular phylogenetic analyses of the subfamily Chloridoideae have included few species of Pappophoreae; therefore, further research involving more representatives of this tribe is needed. With the aim of providing new evidence to help clarify the phylogenetic position of Pappophorum and its relationships with other genera of the tribe and the subfamily Chloridoideae, eight new sequences of ITS and trnL-F regions of Pappophoreae species were generated. These sequences were analyzed together with other available sequence data obtained from GenBank, using maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference, for individual (trnL-F or ITS) or combined trnL-F/ITS data sets. All analyses reveal that Pappophoreae is polyphyletic, with Pappophorum separated from the rest of the tribe forming a well-supported clade sister to Tridens flavus. 相似文献

基于28S rDNA D2基因片段与形态特征的矛茧蜂亚科系统发育研究(膜翅目:茧蜂科) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
本研究选取矛茧蜂亚科Doryctinae(昆虫纲Insecta:膜翅目Hymenoptera:茧蜂科Braconidae)的6族15属18种做内群,茧蜂科其它7亚科11属11种做外群,首次结合同源核糖体28S
rDNA D2基因序列片段和100个形态学和解剖学特征对该亚科进行了系统发育学研究。利用“非圆口类"的小腹茧蜂亚科Microgastrinae为根,以PAUP*4.0和MrBayes 3.0B4软件分别应用最大简约法(MP)和贝叶斯法对矛茧蜂亚科的分子数据和分子数据与非分子数据的结合体进行了运算分析;并以PAUP*4.0对矛茧蜂亚科的28S rDNA D2基因序列片段的碱基组成与碱基替代情况进行了分析。结果表明:矛茧蜂亚科的28S rDNA D2基因序列片段的GC含量在39.33%~48.28%之间变动,而对于碱基替代情况来讲,矛茧蜂亚科各成员间序列变异位点上颠换(transversion)大于转换(transition)。不同的分析算法所产生的系统发育树都表明矛茧蜂亚科是一个界限分明的单系群;在矛茧蜂亚科内,除了吉丁茧蜂族Siragrini为单系群外,其他族(矛茧蜂族Doryctini和方头茧蜂族Hecabolini)都是并系群。对于矛茧蜂亚科内各属之间的相互亲缘关系,不同算法所得的系统发育树的拓扑结构不完全一致,表明矛茧蜂亚科内(属及族)的系统发育关系还有待于进一步研究。 相似文献
