A study of the BR1 and of the most prominent puffs during larval development and after in vitro ecdysterone treatment, as well as of the banding pattern and inverted tandem chromosomal duplications of the salivary gland chromosomes of Drosophila bicornuta, is presented in this report. These data are compared and discussed with those of D. auraria and D. serrata, two other montium species.  相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) screening for P elements was carried out in 77 species with a primer set highly specific for the M-type subfamily. In the course of this search M-type elements were detected in 29 species: In the melanogaster (subgroups montium and rhopaloa ) and obscura species groups of Drosophila (25 out of 71 species examined), and in the genus Scaptomyza (four out of six species). M-type elements are present in all species of the montium subgroup investigated so far (21), but occur only sporadically in other groups. Within the montium subgroup 20 species possess only incomplete copies, only one species ( D. lacteicornis ) harbours apparently full-sized elements. In contrast, outside the montium subgroup almost all species with M-type elements carry full-sized copies suggesting transpositional activity, at least in the recent past. The interior section of the full-sized M-type element of D. lacteicornis was partially sequenced (936 bp). In addition, the complete sequences of four internally deleted M-type elements of D. lacteicornis, D. rufa, D. quadraria , and D. triauraria were determined. Sequence comparisons (including sequence data from previous investigations) revealed striking discrepancies between P element phylogeny and the cladogenesis of their host species. Among several possible pathways for interspecific transfers of M-type elements, we favour the hypothesis assuming the invasion of Scaptomyza as well as the obscura group species of Drosophila via independent transmission routes originating from Asian species of the montium subgroup of Drosophila . The logical geographic scenario for these events would be East-Asia.  相似文献

以ND4L和ND4基因为标记探讨黑腹果蝇种组的系统发育关系   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
多年来的形态学、染色体组学以及DNA序列几个方面的研究均没有很好地阐明黑腹果蝇种组内的系统发育关系。本实验测定了33个样品的ND4和31个样品的ND4L基因序列,以D.obscuroides为外群,用最大简约法和Bayesian法分别构建进化树。结果表明两种方法构建的拓扑结构一致,而且大部分支系的支持率较高。整个黑腹果蝇种组分成三大谱系:1)montium种亚组;2)ananssae种亚组;3)Oriental种亚组(melanogaster、ficsphila、eugracilis、elegans、suzukii、takahashii)。montium是最早分化的种亚组。在第三谱系中,melanogaster分化得最早;然后依次是ficsphila,eugracilis,elegans;suzukii与takahashii为姐妹种亚组,最后分化。  相似文献

DNA-specific sequences from an enzyme-coding gene (glutamate dehydrogenase, gdh), a regulatory protein-coding gene (E74) and genes of the actin family were mapped by in situ hybridization on the polytene chromosomes of six species representative of the geographical distribution of the Drosophila montium subgroup of the melanogaster species group. In all species studied, one hybridization signal was detected for the gdh and E74 genes, and seven signals for the actin genes. The distribution of the actin-related loci in five montium species is similar to that of the other Drosophila species studied so far, although they present an extra signal. This distribution differs in the sixth montium species studied, D. kikkawai. Taking into account the present results, as well as previous data obtained mainly by in situ hybridizations, homologies among the polytene chromosomes of the montium subgroup species, as well as between these species and D. melanogaster, were also established.

Mitochondrial DNA evolution in the Montium-species subgroup of Drosophila   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) restriction-site maps for six species (10 strains) of the Drosophila montium subgroup were established. A total of 50 restriction sites were mapped, corresponding to 1.67% of the mtDNA genome. On the basis of differences in the restriction sites, nucleotide divergence (delta) was calculated for each pair of species (strains), and phylogenetic trees were constructed by using distance- matrix and parsimony methods. Comparison of the resultant phylogenetic trees shows that the sibling species D. auraria and D. quadraria are closely related. At the other extreme, considerable divergence was observed between the two strains of D. serrata and between D. serrata and D. birchii, a finding that contrasts with their grouping within the same species complex. Nevertheless, our data indicate that these six oriental montium species are rather closely related.   相似文献

Genomic libraries were constructed from three Drosophila species, namely Drosophila auraria, Drosophila serrata, and Drosophila kikkawai, belonging to the Drosophila montium subgroup of the Drosophila melanogaster species group. Clones containing beta-tubulin specific sequences were isolated, characterized by restriction endonuclease digestions and Southern hybridizations, and mapped by in situ hybridization on the polytene chromosomes of the species studied. The distribution of the beta-tubulin loci was found to be similar in D. montium species and D. melanogaster.  相似文献

观察了国内黑腹果蝇种组34种果蝇的有丝分裂中期核型,其中首次描述了一些新核型。系统地分析了黑腹果蝇种组8个种亚组之间的核型进化关系及种间亲缘关系。结果是:elegans种亚组的核型为A型;eugracilis、melanogaster和ficusphila种亚组的核型为C型;takahashii和suzukii种亚组的核型为C型和D型;montium种亚组的核型为B、C、C’、D、D’、和E型;ananassae种亚组的核型为F、G和H型。从核型分化的角度可以将黑腹果蝇种组分为5个谱系:elegans,eugracilis-melanogaster-ficusphila,takkahashii-suzukii,montium,ananassae。这与2004年Yang等的观点基本一致,正好从核型进化的角度验证了Yang通过DNA序列分析所得到的结果。差别只在于elegans种亚组,作者把它单独列为一支,认为是祖先种亚组。通过选取同一种果蝇的几个不同地域单雌系的核型分析,结果表明:同一种果蝇的核型存在地域差异。这种差异可能是由于不同生境造成,也可能是本身进化程度的差异,或是两种因素相互作用的结果。  相似文献

Homology of Balbiani Ring DNA in two closely related Chironomus species   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Cytogenetic analysis indicates that Balbiani Ring 2 (BR 2) in the two sibling species Chironomus tentans and Chironomus pallidivittatus arises from identifically banded segments in the salivary gland polytene chromosomes, although chromosomal rearrangements have occurred. In situ hybridization of BR 2 RNA to the polytene chromosomes of each individual species, as well as their F1 hybrids, reveals that the repetitious BR 2 DNA in the two species has, within the limits of the technique, retained identity of nucleotide sequences and degree of repetition. The DNA of the naturally expressed BR 1 and BR 3 in both species and that ot the galactose induced BR 6 in C. pallidivittatus did not hybridize with BR 2 RNA, indicating that these BR's are different from BR 2 with regard to sequence content.  相似文献

We analyze phylogenetic relationships among temperate, subtropical highland, and subtropical lowland species of the Drosophila takahashii and montium species subgroups based on sequence data of COI and Gpdh genes and discuss the evolution of temperate species in these subgroups with reference to their climatic adaptations. In the takahashii subgroup, D. lutescens (the temperate species) branched off first in the tree based on the combined data set, but D. prostipennis (the subtropical highland species) branched off first in the trees based on single genes. Thus, phylogenetic relationships in this subgroup are still ambiguous. In the montium subgroup, the cool-temperate species are phylogenetically close to the warm-temperate species, and these cool- and warm-temperate species form a cluster with the subtropical highland species. This suggests that perhaps the cool-temperate species derived from the warm-temperate species and the warm-temperate species derived from the subtropical highland species. In comparison with the subtropical lowland species, the subtropical highland species may be better able to colonize temperate areas since, as in the temperate species, they have an ability to develop their ovaries at moderately low temperature. However, the subtropical highland species, as well as the subtropical lowland species, were much less cold tolerant than the temperate species. Therefore, considerable genetic reformation would be required for both the subtropical highland and the subtropical lowland species to adapt to temperate climates.  相似文献

The hsp70, hsp83, hsrω, and the small heat shock protein genes were mapped on the polytene chromosomes of six species, representative of the geographical distribution of the Drosophila montium subgroup of the melanogaster species group. In addition, based on hybridization conditions, the putative locus of the hsp68 gene is given. In contrast to the situation in the melanogaster subgroup species, the hsp70 locus is single in the montium species. The hsp83, hsrωand the small hsp loci are also single in the montium genomes studied here, a common feature of all Drosophila species. Among the hsp genes studied, the small hsp genes and the hsrω-homologous sequences exhibit a higher degree of divergence between the melanogaster and the montium subgroups. Our results support the idea that the montium subgroup species has a genome organization closer to that of the common ancestor compared with the melanogaster subgroup species.

Nucleotide sequences of the spacer region of the histone gene H2A-H2B from 36 species of Drosophila melanogaster species group were determined. The phylogenetic trees were reconstructed with maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian methods by using Drosophila pseudoobscura as the out group. Our results show that the melanogaster species group clustered in three main lineages: (1). montium subgroup; (2). ananassae subgroup; and (3). the seven oriental subgroups, among which the montium subgroup diverged first. In the third main lineage, suzukii and takahashii subgroups formed a clade, while eugracilis, melanogaster, elegans, ficusphila, and rhopaloa subgroups formed another clade. The bootstrap values at subgroup levels are high. The phylogenetic relationships of these species subgroups derived from our data are very different from those based on some other DNA data and morphology data.  相似文献

An examination of the polytene chromosomes of some Drosophila species from the montium subgroup, namely, D. auraria, D. serrata, D. jambulina and D. bicornuta, revealed an intimate relationship between ectopic pairing and the toroidal conformation of the polytene chromosome bands. The possible significance of these events is discussed.  相似文献

The Drosophila melanogaster species group is a popular model for evolutionary studies due to its morphological and ecological diversity and its inclusion of the model species D. melanogaster. However, phylogenetic relationships among major lineages within this species group remain controversial. In this report, the phylogeny of 10 species representing each of the well-supported monophyletic clades in the melanogaster group was studied using the sequences of 14 loci that together comprise 9493 nucleotide positions. Combined Bayesian analysis using gene-specific substitution models produced a 100% credible set of two trees. In the strict consensus of these trees, the ananassae subgroup branches first in the melanogaster species group, followed by the montium subgroup. The remaining lineages form a monophyletic clade in which D. ficusphila and D. elegans branch first, followed by D. biarmipes, D. eugracilis, and the melanogaster subgroup. This strongly supported phylogeny resolves most basal relationships in the melanogaster species group, and provides a framework that can be extended in the future to encompass more species.  相似文献

Two independent stationary P-related neogenes had been previously described in the Drosophila obscura species group and in the Drosophila montium species subgroup. In Drosophila melanogaster, P-transposable elements can encode an 87 kDa transposase and a 66 kDa repressor, but the P-neogenes have only conserved the capacity to encode a 66 kDa repressor-like protein specified by the first three exons. We have previously analyzed the genomic modifications associated with the transition of a P-element into the montium P-neogene, the coding capacity of which has been conserved for around 20 Myr ( Nouaud, D., and D. Anxolabéhère. 1997. Mol. Biol. Evol. 14:1132-1144). Here we show that the P-neogene of some species of the montium subgroup presents a new structure involving the capture of an additional exon from a very distant P-element subfamily. This additional exon is inserted either upstream or downstream of the first exon of the P-neogene. As a result of alternative splicing, these modified neogenes can produce, in addition to the repressor-like protein, a new protein which differs only by the NH2-terminal region. We hypothesize that this protein diversity within an organism results in a functional diversification due to the selective advantage associated with the domestication of the P-neogene in these species. Moreover, the autonomous P-element which provides the additional exons is still present in the genome. Its nucleotide sequence is more than 45% distant from the previously defined P-type element (M-type, O-type, T-type) and defines a new P-type element subfamily referred to as the K-type.  相似文献

Seventeen species of the Drosophila montium subgroup, originated from the Southeast Asia, were genetically examined to clarify the phylogenetic relationships. Among 272 interspecific crosses, 61 combinations were successful in mating and 39 combinations produced hybrid flies. These results enabled us to classify the subgroup into three species complexes: the kikkawai complex (6 species), the jambulina complex (4 species) and the auraria complex (7 species), which were very similar to that obtained by the electrophoretic classification (Ohnishi and Watanabe, 1984). Asymmetrical mating preference between species was found in the present experiment. They were applied to estimate the relative age of species according to the hypothesis proposed by Watanabe and Kawanishi (1979). The evolving order was as follows: kikkawai, leontia, pennae, lini-like, lini, bocki in the kikkawai complex, punjabiensis, punjabiensis-like, jambulina, barbarae in the jambulina complex, and quadraria, yuwanensis, rufa, subauraria, biauraria, triauraria, auraria in the auraria complex. Hybrid flies, if produced, were mostly fertile or partially fertile in both sexes (32/39) within species complex crosses. Therefore premating isolation played a more important role than postmating isolation in speciation of the D. montium subgroup.  相似文献

Molecular domestication of a transposable element is defined as its functional recruitment by the host genome. To date, two independent events of molecular domestication of the P transposable element have been described: in the Drosophila obscura species group and in the Drosophila montium species subgroup. These P neogenes consist of stationary, nonrepeated sequences, potentially encoding 66-kDa repressor-like (RL) proteins. Here we investigate the function of the montium P neogenes. We provide evidence for the presence of RL proteins in two montium species (D. tsacasi and D. bocqueti) specifically expressed in adult and larval brain and gonads. We tested the hypothesis that the montium P neogenes’ function is related to the repression of the transposition of distantly related mobile P elements which coexist in the genome. Our results strongly suggest that the montium P neogenes are not recruited to downregulate the P element transposition. Given that all the proteins encoded by mobile or stationary P homologous sequences show a strong conservation of the DNA binding domain, we tested the capacity of the RL proteins to bind DNA in vivo. Immunostaining of polytene chromosomes in D. melanogaster transgenic lines strongly suggests that montium P neogenes encode proteins that bind DNA in vivo. RL proteins show multiple binding to the chromosomes. We suggest that the property recruited in the case of the montium P neoproteins is their DNA binding property. The possible functions of these neogenes are discussed. [Reviewing Editor: Dr. Dmitri Petrov  相似文献
