PHYLOGENY OF LOBOCHARACIUM (CHLOROPHYCEAE) AND ALLIES: A STUDY OF 18S AND 26S rDNA DATA1

The phylogenetic affinities of Lobocharacium coloradoense were investigated by analysis of combined 18S and 26S rDNA data. Results from both parsimony and likelihood methods supported a close alliance among Lobocharacium, Characiosiphon, and Characiochloris. These three taxa formed a clade near the base of the “Dunaliella” group within the chlamydomonad lineage. Protosiphon, which exhibits a siphonous habit similar to Characiosiphon and Lobocharacium, was not resolved as a close ally of the latter two taxa. The Lobocharacium alliance was characterized by the presence of an attachment pad associated with the nonmotile vegetative stage and pyrenoids that possess cytoplasmic invaginations. The pyrenoid feature is an ultrastructural trait that has now been observed in five different chlorophycean lineages. The Lobocharacium–Characiosiphon–Characiochloris clade is not predicted by any classifications of green algae. Additional taxon and data sampling need to be completed to resolve inconsistencies between the molecular phylogenetic evidence and at least some of the current family‐level taxa.     

Physical mapping of 5S and 45S rDNA loci in pufferfishes (Tetraodontiformes)

Chromosomal features, location and variation of the major and minor rDNA genes cluster were studied in three pufferfish species: Sphoeroides greeleyi and Sphoeroides testudineus (Tetraodontidae) and Cyclichthys spinosus (Diodontidae). The location of the major rDNA was revealed with an 18S probe in two loci for all species. The minor rDNA loci (5S rDNA) was found in one chromosome pair in tetraodontid fishes and four sites located on two distinct chromosomal pairs in C. spinosus. A syntenical organization was not observed among the ribosomal genes. Signal homogeneity for GC/AT-DNA specific fluorochromes was observed in diodontid fish except in the NORs regions, which were CMA₃-positive. Giemsa karyotypes of tetraodontid species presents 2n = 46, having the same diploid value of other Sphoeroides species that have been investigated. On the other hand, the karyotype of C. spinosus, described for the first time, shows 2n = 50 chromosomes (4m + 18sm + 12st + 16a). The foreknowledge of the karyotypic structure of this group and also the physical mapping of certain genes could be very helpful for further DNA sequence analysis.     

Relationships among Nicotiana species revealed by the 5S rDNA spacer sequence and fluorescence in situ hybridization

To investigate phylogenetic relationships in Nicotiana, the intergenic spacer sequences of 5S rDNA were analyzed in species with 2n=18, 20 or 24, and amphidiploid species with 2n=48. The chromosomal localization of the 5S rDNA was determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). In species with 2n=24 and their descendants, a major 5S rDNA-specific PCR fragment of 400–650 bp was obtained. The amphidiploid species contained similar length of 5S rDNA units derived from putative diploid progenitors. Among the five clones from each representative PCR fragment, some nucleotide exchanges and length heterogeneity were observed. The latter was due to variation in the spacer region, such as differences in the length of poly A and/or poly T tracts as well as insertions/deletions. Interspecific comparisons of each 5S rDNA sequence demonstrated that the spacer sequence could be divided into three regions. Excluding gaps from the aligned spacer sequences of 5S rDNA, phylogenetic trees were constructed. Each phylogenetic tree showed an almost identical topology even if different algorithms were applied. The chromosomal locations of the 5S rDNA in each species correlated with the phylogenetic topology. The phylogenetic trees were generally in agreement with the current classification.

中间偃麦草(Thinopyrum intermedium)18S-5.8S-26S rDNA位点在染色体上的分布及对其核ITS序列异质性的分析

中间偃麦草(Thinopyrum intermedium(Host)Barkworth et Dewey)是禾本科小麦族植物中的一个异源六倍体物种,是重要的牧草植物,在小麦的抗病育种中发挥了重要作用.利用荧光原位杂交(FISH)技术,在体细胞中期染色体上,对18S-5.8S-26S rDNA位点进行了物理定位,发现该物种有3～4对染色体携带18S-5.8S-26S rDNA主位点.结合基因组原位杂交(GISH)分析,证明中间偃麦草的St基因组中有一对同源染色体短臂末端携带一个主位点,其余2～3对主位点位于E基因组染色体上.对不同来源的材料研究表明:18S-5.8S-26S rDNA位点的数目(包括主位点和小位点)、位置、拷贝数在不同收集材料之间的差异较大,甚至在同一个体的不同细胞中也存在差异.讨论了rDNA物理作图数据在分析系统发育问题中的局限性.结合中间偃麦草的三个可能的二倍体基因组供体(Th.bessarabicum、Th.elongatum和Pseudoroegneria stipifolia)rDNA位点分析的结果,对中间偃麦草进化过程中rDNA位点的变化进行了分析,同时,对其中一份材料的核ITS序列进行了克隆、测序和系统发育分析,发现在中间偃麦草中,ITS序列具有很高的异质性.     

A populational survey of 45S rDNA polymorphism in the Jefferson salamander Ambystoma jeffersonianum revealed by fluorescence in situ hybridization （FISH）

The chromosomal localization of 45S ribosomal RNA genes in Ambystoma jeffersonianum was determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization with 18S rDNA fragment as a probe (FISH-rDNA). Our results revealed the presence of rDNA polymorphism among A.jeffersonianum populations in terms of number, location and FISH signal intensity on the chromosomes. Nine rDNA cytotypes were found in ten geographically isolated populations and most of them contained derivative rDNA sites. Our preliminary study provides strong indication of karyotypic diversification of A.jeffersonianum that is demonstrated by intraspecific variation of 45S rDNA cytotypes. rDNA cytotype polymorphism has been described in many other caudate amphibians. We predict that habitat isolation, low dispersal ability and decline of effective population size could facilitate the fixation and accumulation of variable rDNA cytotypes during their chromosome evolution [Current Zoology 55(2):145-149,2009].     

栽培玉米亚种5 S rDNA NTS序列分析及FISH定位方法比较

选取我国7个栽培玉米亚种材料,进行5 S rDNA的非转录间隔区（nontranscribed intergenic spacer,NTS）的序列分析,比较7个亚种材料NTS序列差异并进行聚类分析,探讨其亲缘关系。研究结果表明：7个材料的NTS区GC平均含量为45．67％,核苷酸位点变异位点个数1～15,转换／颠换率为0．83～2．0,特用玉米材料均存在不同程度的缺失;7个材料主要聚为两大类,第一类群中包括甜质、马齿、硬粒、爆裂和蜡质5个亚种材料,第二类群中包括粉质和甜粉2个亚种材料。同时利用荧光原位杂交技术（fluorescence in situ hybridization,FISH）对5 S rDNA进行定位,探针标记分别采用荧光素标记和生物素标记。结果表明：生物素标记检测系统灵敏度高、杂交信号强,更适合于5 S rDNA重复序列的定位检测。     

Phylogeny of coral-inhabiting barnacles (Cirripedia; Thoracica; Pyrgomatidae) based on 12S, 16S and 18S rDNA analysis

The traditional phylogeny of the coral-inhabiting barnacles, the Pyrgomatidae, is based on morphological characteristics, mainly of the hard parts. It has been difficult to establish the phylogenetic relationships among Pyrgomatidae because of the apparent convergence of morphological characteristics, and due to the use of non-cladistic systematics, which emphasize ancestor-descendant relationships rather than sister-clade relationships. We used partial sequences of two mithochondrial genes, 12S rDNA and 16S rDNA, and a nuclear gene, 18S rDNA, to infer the molecular phylogeny of the pyrgomatids. Our phylogenetic results allowed us to reject previous classifications of Pyrgomatidae based on morphological characteristics. Our results also suggested the possibility of paraphyly of the Pyrgomatidae. The hydrocoral barnacle Wanella is not found on the same clade as the other pyrgomatids, but rather, with the free-living balanids. The basal position of Megatrema and Ceratoconcha is supported. The archeaobalanid Armatobalanus is grouped with Cantellius at the base of the Indo-Pacific pyrgomatines. Fusion of the shell plate and modification of the opercular valves are homoplasious features that occurred more than three times on different clades. The monophyly of the "Savignium" group, comprising four nominal genera, is also not supported, and the different taxa are placed on different clades.     

Variability in rDNA loci in Iberian species of the genus Zabrus (Coleoptera: Carabidae) detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization.

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with a PCR-amplified 18S ribosomal probe was used to map rDNA loci in 19 taxa of the ground beetle genus Zabrus (2n = 47-63) from the Iberian Peninsula. A quantitative and qualitative variation has been observed among related species, subspecies, populations, and even individuals. The number of rDNA-carrying chromosomes varies from 2 to 12, and the extent of the signal from small dots to entire arms. Changes altering the number of rDNA clusters seem to be uncoupled from the variation found in the chromosome number. Mechanisms that explain the numerical variation and spreading of rDNA clusters throughout the genome within the genus Zabrus are briefly discussed. No concordance between the pattern of rDNA sites and the phylogenetic relationships as based on morphological characters has been found.     

Phylogenetic analysis of anostracans (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) inferred from nuclear 18S ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) sequences

The nuclear small subunit ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) of 27 anostracans (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) belonging to 14 genera and eight out of nine traditionally recognized families has been sequenced and used for phylogenetic analysis. The 18S rDNA phylogeny shows that the anostracans are monophyletic. The taxa under examination form two clades of subordinal level and eight clades of family level. Two families the Polyartemiidae and Linderiellidae are suppressed and merged with the Chirocephalidae, of which together they form a subfamily. In contrast, the Parartemiinae are removed from the Branchipodidae, raised to family level (Parartemiidae) and cluster as a sister group to the Artemiidae in a clade defined here as the Artemiina (new suborder). A number of morphological traits support this new suborder. The Branchipodidae are separated into two families, the Branchipodidae and Tanymastigidae (new family). The relationship between Dendrocephalus and Thamnocephalus requires further study and needs the addition of Branchinella sequences to decide whether the Thamnocephalidae are monophyletic. Surprisingly, Polyartemiella hazeni and Polyartemia forcipata ("Family" Polyartemiidae), with 17 and 19 thoracic segments and pairs of trunk limb as opposed to all other anostracans with only 11 pairs, do not cluster but are separated by Linderiella santarosae ("Family" Linderiellidae), which has 11 pairs of trunk limbs. All appear to be part of the Chirocephalidae and share one morphological character: double pre-epipodites on at least part of their legs. That Linderiella is part of the Polyartemiinae suggests that multiplication of the number of limbs occurred once, but was lost again in Linderiella. Within Chirocephalidae, we found two further clades, the Eubranchipus-Pristicephalus clade and the Chirocephalus clade. Pristicephalus is reinstated as a genus.     

基于18S rDNA序列的蝽次目(半翅目：异翅亚目)

利用18SrDNA分子约1 912 bp的序列对蝽次目21个科53个种进行系统发育分析。运用MP法、ML法和NJ法分析后的结果表明:蝽次目的单系性得到很高的支持;扁蝽总科成为毛点类的姐妹群;毛点类基本确定为两大分支:一支包含蝽总科和红蝽总科;另一支主要由长蝽总科、缘蝽总科和南蝽总科组成;长蝽总科和缘蝽总科都是多系;长蝽总科中,跷蝽科和皮蝽科的关系最近,构成姐妹群,位于整个毛点类的基部;与长蝽总科中另外两个科长蝽科和地长蝽科的关系很远。说明利用18SrDNA分子对研究蝽次目的系统发育关系是适合的,能够重建蝽次目;扁蝽总科和蝽总科单系性的结果与形态学的研究以及Li et al (2005)的研究一致;但较Li et al(2005)的研究更进一步把红蝽总科从广义的缘蝽总科中分出来;并建议皮蝽科作为一个独立的总科更合适。
