柴达木盆地渐新世的鲤科鱼类化石

记述了首次发现于柴达木盆地早渐新世晚期至晚渐新世早期(距今27～29 Ma)的鲤科鱼类化石。材料包括咽骨、咽齿、匙骨、腹鳍骨及一些零散的鳍条。咽骨及咽齿化石与原始鲃亚科鱼类及裂腹鱼亚科裂腹鱼属鱼类的相似;腹鳍骨化石与原始鲃亚科鱼类的更相似。鲃亚科鱼类现今分布于北纬35°以南的亚洲、欧洲南部及非洲北部;裂腹鱼属鱼类分布局限于青藏高原东、南、西面的边缘区域,在柴达木盆地没有分布。柴达木盆地水系现生鱼类仅见适于高寒环境的高度特化等级的裂腹鱼亚科鱼类及鳅科高原鳅属鱼类,鱼类组成与早渐新世晚期至晚渐新世早期的不尽相同。     

鲤亚科多倍体物种独立起源及其与第三纪青藏高原隆升的关系

青藏高原特有鲤科多倍体鱼类(裂腹鱼类)的起源和物种分化研究有助于探讨鲤科鱼类物种分化和青藏高原隆升之间的关系.本研究利用线粒体和核基因DNA序列构建系统发育关系,并以此来追溯裂腹鱼类多倍体的起源及其物种分化.倍性水平的祖先状态重建结果显示,鲤亚科是二倍体起源的,而裂腹鱼类是四倍体起源.研究还发现,在适应青藏高原隆升过程中,鲤亚科鱼类物种分化速率发生了两次明显改变,而且这些分化速率变化都发生在青藏高原特有鱼类的分支中.本研究表明,青藏高原特有的多倍体化裂腹鱼类包含了两个独立起源的类群.裂腹鱼类的物种分化与晚第三纪以来的青藏高原隆升密切相关,其中,渐新世晚期至中新世中期的裂腹鱼类适应性分化与青藏高原南部地区以及喜马拉雅山脉的隆升相关;中新世中期到更新世早期的物种分化基本同晚第三纪青藏高原隆升的主要阶段相一致;而更新世以来裂腹鱼属(Schizothorax)的物种分化则和青藏高原快速隆升过程中的昆仑-黄河运动及共和运动密切相关.     

关于扁吻鱼属（Psilorhynchus）分类位置的探讨

最近几年,许多学者都同意Hora(1925)和Ramaswami(1952)的观点,将扁吻鱼属提升到一个科的等级。作者对采自我国西藏墨脱(雅鲁藏布江)的平鳍扁吻鱼Psilorhynchus homaloptera Hora et Mukerji的外形和主要骨骼结构进行了观察,并采用分支分类学的方法对其特征进行了分析,得出了与上不同的结论。扁吻鱼属具有大量一般鲤科鱼类的共同特征(包括离征和祖征),表示它是与所有的鲤科鱼类起源于一个共同的祖先。它们又与鲤科的墨头鱼类群(Garrini group)具有许多共同离征,证明它们是从一个共同的原始鲤科鱼类祖先派生出来的单源群。而与墨头鱼类比较,扁吻鱼属具有许多更特化的离征和个别较原始的祖征,这种相对原始和相对特化的特征的镶嵌分布,证实它们是一对姐妹群。因此,作者认为扁吻鱼属在系统发育中仅具有与墨头鱼类群相同的等级,如果将墨头鱼类作为鲤科中的一个亚科,也应将扁吻鱼属隶属于鲤科的一个相应的亚科——扁吻鱼亚科Psilorhynchinae。     

青海省6种裂腹鱼COI基因作为DNA条形码的适用性初探

青海省裂腹鱼鱼类至少有20种,占土著鱼类的40%以上,具有重要的生态价值。由于生态环境的恶化和人为因素的干扰,很多物种群已濒临灭绝。快速和准确的物种鉴定对于这些物种的保护至关重要,而基于形态学的传统分类法很难满足这一需求。因此,本研究通过DNA条形码技术初步探讨了在青海省裂腹鱼物种鉴定中的适用性。本研究中,测序获得了青海26尾裂腹鱼(6个物种)的细胞色素c氧化酶亚基I (COI)基因,并经GenBank数据库进行比对;基于K2P模型分析COI序列变异;运用贝叶斯法(BI)和最大似然法(ML)构建系统发育树。结果显示,6种裂腹鱼COI序列检测得到15个单倍型,且各物种间无共享的单倍型。基于K2P模型,最大种内遗传距离和最小种间遗传距离分别为(0.621±0.297)%和(2.792±0.644)%。种间平均遗传距离为(12.205±1.307)%,约为种内平均遗传距离((0.327±0.162)%)的37倍,表明各物种的COI序列间已经形成明显"条形码间隙"。AMOVA分析显示,遗传变异主要来自种间,约占97.05%;FST=0.970 54,p<0.01,说明各物种间分化程度极高。此外,基于BI和ML方法构建的系统树具有一致的拓扑结构,分辨率较高;各物种均单独聚为一个发育枝,拓扑结构合理。以上结果表明,COI基因作为DNA条形码在青海裂腹鱼物种鉴定中具有较高的适用性。

塔里木裂腹鱼群体遗传结构及遗传多样性分析

塔里木裂腹鱼为塔里木河水系特有濒危裂腹鱼类。研究采集5个群体(多浪渠首、喀拉喀什河、木扎提河、塔什库尔干、玉龙喀什河)塔里木裂腹鱼,扩增线粒体控制区第一高变区,共获得长度456 bp序列95条。塔里木裂腹鱼单倍型多样度和核苷酸多样度分别为0.7118、0.0024。AMOVA分析显示,群体间遗传分化显著。FST值统计检验表明,除喀拉喀什河群体与玉龙喀什河群体之间差异不显著外,其他两两群体之间都是显著的。分子系统树和单倍型网络图分析表明,塔里木裂腹鱼单倍型间关系较近。中性检验和mismatch分析显示,塔里木裂腹鱼群体经历过近期群体扩张事件。根据核苷酸不配对分布τ值计算其群体扩张时间为20万年前。天山、昆仑山的运动以及第四纪冰期-间冰期的变化可能影响了塔里木裂腹鱼的群体历史动态。     

利用Cyt b基因序列探讨柴达木裸裂尻鱼的分类学地位

长期以来,柴达木裸裂尻鱼(Schizopygopsis kessleri)的分类学地位存在争议。为此,测定了柴达木裸裂尻鱼格尔木河及托素湖种群24个个体及黄河裸裂尻鱼(S.pylzovi)黄河及大通北川河种群12个个体的Cytb基因全序列。通过遗传距离和系统发育分析,探讨了柴达木裸裂尻鱼的分类学地位。结果显示,柴达木裸裂尻鱼与黄河裸裂尻鱼在系统进化树上并未形成相应的单系群;柴达木裸裂尻鱼与黄河裸裂尻鱼种间平均遗传距离为0.54%,明显低于裂腹鱼亚科其他属鱼类的种间遗传距离及本属其他种间遗传距离,表明来自柴达木盆地格尔木河和托素湖的裸裂尻鱼与黄河裸裂尻鱼之间没有达到种级水平的显著分化。综合地质学资料和柴达木水系与黄河水系现今的隔离格局,建议将柴达木裸裂尻鱼作为黄河裸裂尻鱼的一个亚种,即S.pylzovi kessleri。

DNA barcoding of the ichthyofauna of Taal Lake, Philippines

This study represents the first molecular survey of the ichthyofauna of Taal Lake and the first DNA barcoding attempt in Philippine fishes. Taal Lake, the third largest lake in the Philippines, is considered a very important fisheries resource and is home to the world's only freshwater sardine, Sardinella tawilis. However, overexploitation and introduction of exotic fishes have caused a massive decline in the diversity of native species as well as in overall productivity of the lake. In this study, 118 individuals of 23 native, endemic and introduced fishes of Taal Lake were barcoded using the partial DNA sequence of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene. These species belong to 21 genera, 17 families and 9 orders. Divergence of sequences within and between species was determined using Kimura 2-parameter (K2P) distance model, and a neighbour-joining tree was generated with 1000 bootstrap replications using the K2P model. All COI sequences for each of the 23 species were clearly discriminated among genera. The average within species, within genus, within family and within order percent genetic divergence was 0.60%, 11.07%, 17.67% and 24.08%, respectively. Our results provide evidence that COI DNA barcodes are effective for the rapid and accurate identification of fishes and for identifying certain species that need further taxonomic investigation.

Geographical differentiation of the Euchiloglanis fish complex (Teleostei: Siluriformes) in the Hengduan Mountain Region,China: Phylogeographic evidence of altered drainage patterns

The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau caused significant ecogeographical changes that had a major impact on the exchange and isolation of regional fauna and flora. Furthermore, Pleistocene glacial oscillations were linked to temporal large‐scale landmass and drainage system reconfigurations near the Hengduan Mountain Region and might have facilitated speciation and promoted biodiversity in southwestern China. However, strong biotic evidence supporting this role is lacking. Here, we use the Euchiloglanis fish species complex as a model to demonstrate the compound effects of the Tibetan Plateau uplift and Pleistocene glacial oscillations on species formation in this region. The genetic structure and geographical differentiation of the Euchiloglanis complex in four river systems within the Hengduan Mountain Region were deduced using the cytochrome b (cyt b) gene and 10 microsatellite loci from 360 to 192 individuals, respectively. The results indicated that the populations were divided into four independently evolving lineages, in which the populations from the Qingyi River and Jinsha River formed two sub‐lineages. Phylogenetic relationships were structured by geographical isolation, especially near drainage systems. Divergence time estimation analyses showed that the Euchiloglanis complex diverged from its sister clade Pareuchiloglanis sinensis at around 1.3 Million years ago (Ma). Within the Euchiloglanis complex, the divergence time between the Dadu–Yalong and Jinsha–Qingyi River populations occurred at 1.0 Ma. This divergence time was in concordance with recent geological events, including the Kun‐Huang Movement (1.2–0.6 Ma) and the lag time (<2.0 Ma) of river incision in the Hengduan Mountain Region. Population expansion signals were detected from mismatched distribution analyses, and the expansion times were concurrent with Pleistocene glacier fluctuations. Therefore, current phylogeographic patterns of the Euchiloglanis fish complex in the Hengduan Mountain Region were influenced by the uplift event of the Tibetan Plateau and were subsequently altered by paleo‐river transitions during the late Pleistocene glacial oscillations.     

Phylogenetic relationships within the aquatic snail genus Tryonia: implications for biogeography of the North American Southwest

We examined the phylogenetic relationships among 23 species of the North American aquatic snail genus Tryonia (Hydrobiidae), 10 additional representatives of the subfamily Cochliopinae, and two outgroups. Maximum parsimony analysis of a 601-base-pair sequence from the mitochondrial COI gene did not support monophyly of the genus nor its subgenus Paupertryonia. A clade composed of the type species of Tryonia and 16 congeners was strongly supported by the COI data and congruent with recently discovered variation in female genitalic morphology. This "true Tryonia" clade included two large western subclades having a sister-group relationship. The phylogenetic structure of one of these subclades is congruent with vicariant events associated with late Neogene history of the lower Colorado River drainage. The other subclade mirrors development of the modern Rio Grande rift and inception of modern topography in the southwestern Great Basin during the late Neogene. Both subclades are represented in the composite Tryonia fauna of the Amargosa River basin, whose assembly is attributed to the complex geological history of the Death Valley region.     

Phylogenetic relationships of assimineid gastropods of the Death Valley–lower Colorado River region: relicts of a late Neogene marine incursion?

Aim A small fauna of amphibious snails (genus Assiminea Fleming, 1828) living in association with highly mineralized springs in the Death Valley–lower Colorado River region (DVLCR) is thought to be a relict of the Bouse Embayment, a putative late Miocene–early Pliocene transgression of the ancestral Gulf of California along the lower Colorado River valley. We analysed the phylogenetic relationships of this fauna using mtDNA sequence data (1171 bp) to determine whether, as would be consistent with this hypothesis, it forms a substantially divergent unit sister to marine coastal congeners. Location South‐western Great Basin and lower Colorado River region, USA. Methods Two genes [mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and the mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA gene] were sequenced for 10 populations of DVLCR assimineas (Assiminea infima Berry, 1947 ; Assiminea sp.). We also sequenced an undescribed population from a spring in the Colorado River delta; western North American Pacific Coastal Assiminea californica (Tryon, 1865); the three other congeners that live on the continent; and three Old World assimineids (outgroups). Phylogenies based on the combined data set were obtained using Bayesian methods, and divergence times were estimated using a COI molecular clock for related gastropods. Results Composite haplotypes of the DVLCR assimineas, together with that observed in the Colorado River delta population, formed a weakly supported clade that was sister to a clade composed of populations of North American Pacific and Atlantic coastal species. The genetic distance between members of these two clades was 3.46 ± 0.47% for COI and 1.69 ± 0.38% for 16S. The former clade was composed of five subunits that differed from each other by 1.29–2.84% (COI) and 0.52–1.98% (16S) sequence divergence. Main conclusions Application of the COI clock suggests that progenitors of the DVLCR fauna diverged from coastal ancestors 2.13–1.89 Ma (late Pliocene), several million years after the Bouse Embayment would have been terminated by the establishment of the lower (freshwater) Colorado River. This finding, together with shallow genetic structuring of several DVLCR lineages that are widely distributed across the topographically complex regional landscape, suggests that the Assiminea fauna of this inland area was more likely to have been founded by coastal colonists transported on water birds than through a direct connection with the sea.
