两种鯻科鱼类线粒体16S rRNA基因片段序列分析

利用PCR技术成功扩增了高体革鯻(Scortum barcoo)和厚唇弱棘喇(Hephaestus fuliginosus)的线粒体16S rRNA基因序列.通过序列测定,得到791 bp的基因片段,碱基A、T、G、C平均含量分别为31.4％、21.2％、20.5％和26.9％,序列中的A+T含量明显高于G+C的含量,这与其他鱼类的16S rRNA基因片段研究结果相一致.通过序列分析发现,高体革鯻和厚唇弱棘喇两序列共存在23处碱基变异,其中碱基转换位点20个,碱基颠换位点3个,转换与颠换比率为6.7,没有发现碱基插入与缺失.与从GenBank中查到的3种蜊科鱼类的同源序列比对,邻接法(neighbor-joining)构建亲缘关系树,结果显示,5种蜊科鱼类聚在一起,分为独立的2支,匀蜊和单色匀鯻及花身蜊聚成1支,高体革鯻和厚唇弱棘鯻聚为1支,说明高体革鯻与厚唇弱棘蜊的亲缘关系比较近,而与其他另外3种鯻科鱼类亲缘关系比较远.

本文测定了中国产蛇亚目20种蛇约800bp的mtDNA 12S rDNA基因片段序列。所测序列与楔齿蜥的同源序列一起经Clustal X1.8软件比对,共有881个位点,其中变异位点有494个。以楔齿蜥为外群,用NJ法构建了4科20种蛇的进化关系树,对这20种蛇的系统发生关系作了初步探讨。研究结果表明：所研究的4个科20种蛇分成4个支系。第一个支系包括蟒科的东方沙蟒和蟒2种蛇;第二个支系为蝰科3种蛇,即草原蝰、尖吻蝮、竹叶青组成一个单系群;眼镜蛇科的眼镜蛇和银环蛇构成第三个支系;游蛇科的13种蛇构成了第四个支系,其中灰鼠蛇、乌梢蛇和赤链蛇组成一个支系,锦蛇属的7种蛇组成一个单系群,然后它们与前一支系相聚。剩下的颈槽蛇属两种聚类后与赤链华游蛇构成一个支系,并与游蛇科其它蛇组成姐妹群。第四支系首先与第三支系眼镜蛇科聚类,第二支系蝰科构成了三、四支系眼镜蛇科和游蛇科的姐妹群,第一支系蟒科在系统树的最基部,为四个科中较原始的类群。     

基于18S rRNA、COⅡ基因的?鱼(Miichthys miiuy)系统发育分析

为了解鮸鱼的系统发育地位,探索18S rRNA、COⅡ分子标记对石首鱼科系统分类的适用性,对鮸鱼的18S rRNA基因、线粒体COⅡ基因进行克隆、序列分析和构建NJ系统进化树。结果表明:扩增得到鮸鱼18S rRNA基因1305 bp,A+T含量为46.2%;COⅡ基因序列为854 bp,A+T含量为53.5%,有明显的反G偏倚(15.2%),含一个699 bp的ORF,编码233个氨基酸;基于18S rRNA序列构建的系统树显示,鲈形目鱼类聚为一个紧密的簇,该目中各科鱼类间18S rRNA序列的同源性均大于97.8%,无法反映鮸鱼在石首鱼科中的系统发育情况。基于COⅡ序列构建的系统树显示,鲈形目鱼类分为2簇:包括鮸鱼在内的所有石首科鱼类聚为一个大簇,其他各科聚为另一个大簇;其中鮸鱼与黄唇鱼亲缘关系最近,二者序列相似性为97.4%。虽然石首科鱼类聚成的簇中有些分支的自展支持率较低(<50%),个别种类的聚类与传统分类有所差异,但大部分聚类是一致的。结果既能丰富鮸鱼的分子系统学资料,又可为研究鮸鱼的系统发育地位及石首鱼科鱼类的进化关系提供参考资料。     

基于多变量形态度量学和线粒体Cytb序列的鲈属鱼类分类探讨

鲈属鱼类的分类在学术界尚存在很多争议。本文通过鲈属鱼类32个多变量形态学参数和1134bp的线粒体DNA细胞色素b序列的比较,对鲈属鱼类分类问题做了探讨。结果显示河鲈和伊犁鲈之间的形态距离为0.15,黄金鲈和伊犁鲈为0.14,河鲈和黄金鲈为0.09,在形态上黄金鲈和河鲈较接近,而伊犁鲈与前两者差异明显;主成分2(16.09%)对主成分1(21.71%)作图结果显示黄金鲈和河鲈有重叠区,而伊犁鲈与其它二种鲈有较大差距;细胞色素b同源序列差异百分比为河鲈与伊犁鲈13.08%、黄金鲈与伊犁鲈10.68%、黄金鲈与河鲈11.47%,鲈属鱼类间的碱基差异属于种间的遗传差异。MP、NJ和ML三种系统发育树在河鲈、黄金鲈和伊犁鲈三个种或亚种之间的拓扑结构一致,显示黄金鲈与伊犁鲈的演化关系较河鲈为近。根据20个样本的细胞色素b基因序列的遗传差异和系统发育树以及地理分布上的繁殖隔离,我们进一步认定黄金鲈和河鲈是不同的种,鲈属鱼类包括伊犁鲈、河鲈和黄金鲈三个种。     

基于COI基因分析的双齿蚋分子分类研究

为了确定COI基因序列分析在蚋科中的分类地位,本研究测定了双齿蚋(Simulium bidentatum) COI基因序列,分析该基因序列特征;下载与其同源性较高的12个蚋种的COI基因序列15条,进行同源性分析和分子系统发育研究。结果显示,双齿蚋COI基因序列(DQ534946)与S. notiale、S. snowi、S. nyssa等蚋种的COI基因序列同源性最高,在贝叶斯分析所构建的分子系统进化树中,不同蚋组的序列各自聚成一枝,双齿蚋序列(DQ534946)未与其他任何蚋种聚为一枝。研究结果表明,双齿蚋COI基因序列与蚋亚属序列同源性较高,COI基因序列分析能较好建立蚋亚属内组间关系,双齿蚋未与其他蚋组序列聚为一枝,分类至淡足蚋组并不合适,支持分类至阿根蚋组。本研究进一步明确了COI基因序列分析在蚋科分子系统发育研究中的意义,并在一定程度上解决了双齿蚋在蚋科的分类争议。     

基于COI和ND5序列的中国南部唇魚骨和间魚骨群体遗传结构

唇魚骨和间魚骨均为分布较广的初级淡水鱼类,是理想的亲缘地理研究材料;且两者形态特征较为相似,不易鉴别,故两者的分布记述和物种有效性存在争议.为了解我国南部唇魚骨和间魚骨的群体遗传结构并探讨两者的物种有效性,本研究对8条水系的唇魚骨和9条水系的间魚骨共130尾个体的COI和ND5基因序列片段进行了测定,并对这两个基因的组合序列(2151bp)进行了分析.结果表明:在130尾个体的COI和ND5基因组合序列中,共有196个核苷酸变异位点,共检测出50个单倍型,单倍型多样性为0.964,核苷酸多样性为0.019,遗传多样性较高.基于COI和ND5基因组合序列构建的NJ树显示,所有种群可分为两支,支系Ⅰ包含了韩江和九龙江的全部单倍型以及瓯江的部分单倍型,余下的单倍型组成了支系Ⅱ.两支系间的遗传距离为0.036,而唇魚骨与间魚骨之间的遗传距离为0.027.单倍型网络图表明,韩江、九龙江种群和其他水系种群分化较大;漠阳江种群由海南岛种群扩散而来;海南岛各种群及漠阳江种群的单倍型分支与珠江水系单倍型的分支之间的亲缘关系较近,与长江水系单倍型分支之间的亲缘关系则较远;湘江、桂江和柳江之间的亲缘关系较近.AMOVA分析结果显示,地理区之间的变异约占71.2%,地理区内种群间变异约占16.6%,种群内的变异占12.2%,表明其遗传分化主要来自地理区之间.错配分析及中性检验结果显示,全部种群、唇魚骨种群、间魚骨种群、支系Ⅰ和支系Ⅱ在历史上均没有发生过明显的扩张.     

基于髭鲷属鱼类Cyt b基因全序列探讨髭鲷属在鲈总科的分类地位

为探讨髭鲷属鱼类的分类地位,克隆了两种髭鲷属鱼类(横带髭鲷和斜带髭鲷)的线粒体Cyt 6基因全长序列,并利用线粒体Cyt b基因序列分析了鲈总科6个科29种的分子系统进化关系.结果表明:髭鲷属与石鲈科的其他5个属的遗传距离超过了科问水平的遗传距离,存在较远的遗传分化.29种鲈总科鱼类分成了两大类群,石鲈科的矶鲈属、仿石鲈属、厚唇椒鲷属、异孔石鲈属和石鲈属的物种聚为一起形成石鲈科的一个独立分支,与亲缘关系较近的鲷科、梅鲷科和笛鲷科形成一个类群;而隶属于石鲈科的髭鲷属与石鲷科及雀鲷科形成另一个类群.髭鲷属与其他石鲈科鱼类的亲缘关系已经超过了科问的遗传分化水平,而在遗传距离及系统进化分析上髭鲷属仍然隶属于鲈总科.本研究支持将髭鲷属提升为髭鲷科的观点.     

基于线粒体基因Cytb和COI的蝗科中五亚科分子系统发育关系分析（直翅目: 蝗总科）（英文）

本研究基于Cytb 基因和COI基因的部分序列来推断17种蝗虫之间的系统发育关系。这17种蝗虫均采自国内,代表了蝗科(Acrididae)5个亚科：黑蝗亚科(Melanoplinae)、斑腿蝗亚科(Catantopinae)、刺胸蝗亚科(Cyrtacanthacridinae)、斑翅蝗亚科(Oedipodinae)和大足蝗亚科(Gomphocerinae)。采用联合序列方法进行分析,结果显示：Cytb 和COI联合序列长度为1 998 bp,其中A和T总含量为72.13%,G和C总含量为27.87%。联合序列共包含了889个保守位点,1 109个变异位点,在这些变异位点中有838个简约信息位点。系统发生树采用邻接法（NJ）、最大简约法（MP）和最大似然法（ML）进行构建。使用蜢总科的变色乌蜢Erianthus versicolor 和 Erianthus sp. 两个种作为外群。结果表明：大足蝗亚科和斑腿蝗亚科的单系性没有得到支持。斑翅蝗亚科内部各种聚成一个大支,在本研究中该亚科的单系性得到支持,与前人的研究结论相同。大足蝗亚科、斑腿蝗亚科、刺胸蝗亚科和黑蝗亚科这4科关系非常近,可以考虑将其合并为一个亚科。同时,我们发现基于Cytb和COI基因联合序列推断蝗科内各亚科间的系统发生关系并不十分可靠。     

基于线粒体COⅠ基因部分序列的长江口舌鳎科鱼类系统分类研究

为了确定线粒体COⅠ基因在长江口舌鳎科鱼类系统分类及物种鉴定中的作用,本实验采用线粒体COⅠ基因特异扩增测序及GenBank已有序列联合配对分析的方法,对长江口舌鳎科2属9种鱼类39个COⅠ基因片段的序列进行比较和系统进化研究。采用MEGA 5.0软件进行统计分析,舌鳎科鱼类该片段的平均AT含量高于GC含量,第1密码子位点含量最高(51.8%～57.3%,平均53.8%),第2密码子的含量稳定,均为42.0%,第3密码子变化范围最大(28.1%～37.8%,平均32.4%)。依据Kimura-2-parameter模型,9种舌鳎科鱼类种间遗传距离平均值为0.191,种内为0.003,种间遗传距离是种内的63.7倍。采用最大简约法(MP) 和邻接法(NJ)构建系统发育树,显示长江口舌鳎科鱼类为明显的单系群,但舌鳎科鱼类内部的系统发育关系与形态分类划分的亚属并不完全一致,其中须鳎属的日本须鳎(Paraplagusis japonica)与拟舌鳎亚属的宽体舌鳎(Cynoglossus robustus)聚为一支。虽然三线舌鳎亚属的种类均可聚为独立的分支,但短吻三线舌鳎(C. abbreviatus)与紫斑舌鳎(C. purpureomaculatus)、长吻红舌鳎(C. lighti)与短吻红舌鳎(C. joyneri),两组间种间遗传距离分别为0.002和0.007,两组物种间均存在同种异名现象。本研究表明,线粒体COⅠ基因作为分子标记除了能筛选出同种异名种类外,还能够对舌鳎科鱼类进行有效的物种鉴定和系统进化分析,线粒体COⅠ基因作为分类条形码是可行的。

Population survey of spiders using mt-DNA (COI) sequences in Japanese peach orchards

In this study, we attempted a population survey of spiders in peach orchards with and without pesticide application; however, we had difficulty discriminating them. To identify spiders, we determined the nucleotide sequences of a ca. 640-bp region in the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene from 17 species belonging to eight families. To identify five wolf spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae), which are the most abundant spiders in peach orchards in Okayama Prefecture, PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism were developed on the basis of the COI gene sequences. Population survey results suggest that pesticide applications adversely affect spider populations in peach orchards.

Phylogenetic Relationships of 12 Penaeoidea Shrimp Species Deduced from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences

DNA sequences of an 847 bp fragment of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and a 514 bp fragment of 16s rRNA gene were determined to examine the phylogenetic relationships of 12 Penaeoidea shrimp species (Penaeus chinensis, Penaeus japonicus, Penaeus penicillatus, Penaeus vannamei, Penaeus canaliculatus, Trachypenaeus curvirostris, Metapenaeus affinis, Metapenaeus ensis, Metapenaeopsis barbata, Parapenaeus fissuroides, Parapenaeopsis hardiwickii, Solenocera crassicomis). Both fragments of the swimming crab Portunus trituberculaus chosen as the outgroup were also sequenced. Intraspecific sequence divergence of 0.24-1.2% in the COI gene was found in 5 species, while no intraspecific variation was observed in the 16s rRNA gene. Three phylogenetic trees based on the 1361 bp combined sequences of COI and 16s rRNA were concordant in indicating the following suggestions: (1) phylogenetic relationship of the 11 Penaeidae species based on our result support the opinion of Burkenroad (Burkenroad, M.D. (1983). Crustacean Issues 3:279-290) on the basis of morphological features; (2) it seems more reasonable to class Solenocera crassicorni in the family Penaeidae; (3) the fragment of the COI gene chosen here appears to be a good marker for speciation studies and population analysis in Crustaceans, while the 16s rRNA gene fragment here seems suitable for examining phylogenetic relationships at the species or genus levels in Crustaceans. Our time estimates suggest that Penaeus and Metapenaeus might have separated about 6.38 x 10(6)-7.98 x 10(6) years BP in the post-Miocene, and the species separation within Metapenaeus and Penaeus might occur 0.08 x 10(6)-0.4 x 10(6) years BP in the late Pleistocene.     

COI (cytochrome oxidase-I) sequence based studies of Carangid fishes from Kakinada coast,India

Mitochondrial DNA, cytochrome oxidase-1 gene sequences were analyzed for species identification and phylogenetic relationship among the very high food value and commercially important Indian carangid fish species. Sequence analysis of COI gene very clearly indicated that all the 28 fish species fell into five distinct groups, which are genetically distant from each other and exhibited identical phylogenetic reservation. All the COI gene sequences from 28 fishes provide sufficient phylogenetic information and evolutionary relationship to distinguish the carangid species unambiguously. This study proves the utility of mtDNA COI gene sequence based approach in identifying fish species at a faster pace.     

COI基因作为丛赤壳科真菌DNA条形码的测试

以丛赤壳科33种76个菌株为材料,探讨COI基因作为该科DNA条形码的可能性。结果表明,该DNA片段存在较多内含子,为了获取某些种的短片段,需设计许多引物,PCR扩增与测序成功率低,难以达到便捷、快速的物种鉴定的目的。因此,COI不宜作为丛赤壳科的DNA条形码。对已获得的少数片段进行分析表明,该基因对丛赤壳科部分种具有较强的物种鉴别力。     

Comparative performance of the 16S rRNA gene in DNA barcoding of amphibians

BACKGROUND: Identifying species of organisms by short sequences of DNA has been in the center of ongoing discussions under the terms DNA barcoding or DNA taxonomy. A C-terminal fragment of the mitochondrial gene for cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) has been proposed as universal marker for this purpose among animals. RESULTS: Herein we present experimental evidence that the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene fulfills the requirements for a universal DNA barcoding marker in amphibians. In terms of universality of priming sites and identification of major vertebrate clades the studied 16S fragment is superior to COI. Amplification success was 100% for 16S in a subset of fresh and well-preserved samples of Madagascan frogs, while various combination of COI primers had lower success rates.COI priming sites showed high variability among amphibians both at the level of groups and closely related species, whereas 16S priming sites were highly conserved among vertebrates. Interspecific pairwise 16S divergences in a test group of Madagascan frogs were at a level suitable for assignment of larval stages to species (1-17%), with low degrees of pairwise haplotype divergence within populations (0-1%). CONCLUSION: We strongly advocate the use of 16S rRNA as standard DNA barcoding marker for vertebrates to complement COI, especially if samples a priori could belong to various phylogenetically distant taxa and false negatives would constitute a major problem.

DNA barcoding discriminates echinoderm species

DNA barcode sequences (a 657-bp segment of the mtDNA cytochrome oxidase I gene, COI) were collected from 191 species (503 specimens) of Echinodermata. All five classes were represented: Ophiuroidea, Asteroidea, Echinoidea, Holothuroidea and Crinoidea. About 30% of sequences were collected specifically for this study, the remainder came from GenBank. Fifty-one species were represented by multiple samples, with a mean intraspecific divergence of 0.62%. Several possible instances of cryptic speciation were noted. Thirty-two genera were represented by multiple species, with a mean congeneric divergence of 15.33%. One hundred and eighty-seven of the 191 species (97.9%) could be distinguished by their COI barcodes. Those that could not were from the echinoid genus Amblypneustes. Neighbour-joining trees of COI sequences generally showed low bootstrap support for anything other than shallow splits, although with very rare exceptions, members of the same class clustered together. Two ophiuran species, in both nucleotide and amino acid neighbour-joining trees, grouped loosely as sister taxa to Crinoidea rather than Ophiuroidea; sequences of these two species appear to have evolved very quickly. Results suggest that DNA barcoding is likely to be an effective, accurate and useful method of species diagnosis for all five classes of Echinodermata.     

Mitochondrial COI gene transfers to the nuclear genome of Dendroctonus valens and its implications

Mitochondrial gene transfer to the nuclear genome could affect the accuracy of results in population genetics and evolutionary studies using mitochondrial gene markers. In a population genetics study of the red turpentine beetle (Dendroctonus valens), an invasive species in China, we found numerous ambiguous sites existing in the Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) gene sequences obtained directly from polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products amplified from total genomic DNA using universal primers. By comparing the profiles of restriction endonuclease digestions and the sequences of PCR products amplified from mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA of the same individuals, we confirmed it was a phenomenon of mitochondrial gene transfer to the nuclear genome. Large numbers of COI pseudogenes were detected in this species. According to different levels of condon position bias and phylogenetic analysis, these should have originated from independent integration events. The impact of nuclear mitochondrial DNA sequences on population genetics analyses was discussed.     

Phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene of five species of the Culicoides imicola species complex

The phylogenetic status of members of the Culicoides imicola Kieffer (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) species complex of haematophagous midges is unknown, and simple means to identify the members using all life stages are unavailable. In this study, the status of three confirmed (C. imicola s.s., C. bolitinos Meiswinkel and C. loxodontis Meiswinkel) and two provisional (C. tuttifrutti Meiswinkel and C. kwagga Meiswinkel) members of the complex from South Africa was assessed using phylogenetic analysis of partial DNA and amino acid sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene. The four or five individuals of each species analysed contained one or two haplotypes each. Interspecific divergence was significant and characterized by strong A <--> T transversion bias. Phylogenetic trees constructed using neighbour-joining, parsimony and maximum likelihood showed each species to be distinct. Combinations of sites for two restriction enzymes in the COI sequences were species-specific and could form the basis of a diagnostic PCR assay.
