Seven freshwater Anabaena sp. strains have been examined for esterase, malate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase and aldolase isozyme patterns. The morphological differences among them did not allow a sure understanding of their relationships, whereas a phylogenetic analysis of the esterase and malate dehydrogenase patterns led to a single fully resolved tree. A phenetic analysis on the same data set resulted in the same pattern of relationships. Successive cultures of the same strains did not show identical band phenotypes, but nevertheless the phenetic and phylogenetic relationships among the various strains did not change. 相似文献

A comparative study of the accuracy of three different approaches to phylogenetic estimation was made on simulated data with differing rates of change in different lineages. The three approaches were maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony, and phenetic clustering. The data were generated by simulating genetic drift with different population sizes over a simple four-species tree topology. Although the accuracy of all three approaches was found to be dependent on the number of loci (characters), maximum likelihood was found to perform considerably and consistently better than maximum parsimony or phenetic clustering. 相似文献

Cladistic and phenetic analyses of the morphology of 79 species of Pogostemon Desf. sens lato have been undertaken. The cladistic analysis included 135 character state differences encoded as 41 binary or multistate characters. The phenetic analysis included 52 metric variables and 54 binary variables. There is a very good correspondence between the results of cladistic and phenetic analyses based on different data sets. The existence of several clearly marked clades/clusters has been demonstrated. Some groups/clades are similar to those previously taxonomically recognized but the relationships and membership of infra-generic groups have been clarified by these analyses, validating a revised infra-generic classification which has been proposed. 相似文献

Application of FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) analysis in the numerical taxonomic determination of bacterial guild structure 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Comparative numerical taxonomic analyses, using fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiles and phenetic characteristics, were conducted to examine bacterial guild structure in freshwater sediments. Both approaches were used to examine a subset of 60 OTUs obtained from a previously well characterized microbial community in sediments of a shallow fast flowing stream. For both classifications, greater than 80% of the OTUs were recovered in 11 and 12 major groups for FAME and phenetics approaches. However, there was not complete correspondence for the groupings of the 2 classifications, with most FAME groups being distributed among the phenetic groups and 2 phenetic groups not providing usable characteristics for FAME analysis. The results did demonstrate significant taxonomic variation in bacteria capable of occupying the same or a similar fundamental niche. 相似文献

Velvetbean (Mucuna sp.) is a self-pollinated crop classified within the Leguminosae. Using AFLP markers, gene diversity and phenetic relationships
were estimated in a collection of 40 velvetbean accessions from cultivated species and different eco-geographic regions. Eleven
selective primer combinations generated a total of 508 amplification products. The average number of scorable fragments was
23 per primer combination. A total of 251 polymorphic markers was detected. The polymorphisms obtained ranged from 36% to
61% with an average of 49%. The final phenetic trees were constructed using Nei and Li’s coefficient of similarity with UPGMA.
Other clustering algorithms were examined and all had high co-phenetic correlations, indicating the goodness of fit for the
resulting phylogenetic trees. The phenetic tree as well as principal component analysis (PCA) separated the 40 velvetbean
accessions into two main clusters. Bootstrap and Jackknife analyses were completed and their values indicated strong to moderate
support for the two main clusters. This grouping confirmed the existing phenological difference with regard to maturity. The
high values of the similarity coefficients observed (0.87 to 0.97) imply that the accessions used in this study are similar.
The level of genetic variability detected within the velvetbean accessions with AFLP analysis suggests that it is a reliable,
efficient, and effective marker technology for determining genetic relationships in velvetbean.

Twenty clones of the breeding population of Hevea brasiliensis were evaluated for phenetic diversity. The test-clones included six clones developed in Nigeria, ten Malaysian clones, two
clones from Indonesia and a clone from each of Brazil and Sri Lanka. Data collected on fifteen seed characters in 1998 and
1999 were utilized for multivariate analysis. Cluster analysis of data matrix of clonal mean seed characters was conducted
to produce principal component axes, dendrograms and Tocher's clusters in 1998, 1999 and the combined data. There was taxonomic
isolation of the recent collection from Brazil (IAN 710) from the other clones that are either members or descendants of the
Wickham collection of 1876. There was a continuum of phenetic diversity from the highly divergent to the closely related pairs
of clones. The highly divergent clones are expected to produce heterotic progenies in crosses while crosses among clones with
close phenetic similarity should be avoided. This will guide against inbreeding depression and genetic erosion.

The aim of this study was to infer from allozyme data the phylogenetic relationships of nine species of actiniid sea anemones, and also use these data to assess the various methods (phenetic and cladistic) available for phylogenetic analysis. Starch gel electrophoresis was used to obtain genetic data from 13 gene loci. The anemone Metridium senile, from the family Metridiidae, was used as an outgroup. For the phenetic analysis a matrix of pairwise unbiased genetic distances was computed and, from this, dendrograms were produced both by the Wagner distance and the UPGMA methods. For the cladistic analyses three different approaches were used: the first was to treat the allele as a binary character; this was investigated using a Wagner parsimony algorithm. Another approach used was to consider the locus as an unordered character, using the alleles as states. Finally, we used the locus as an ordered multistate character, where mutation, fixation and elimination of each allele were treated as evolutionary novelties, and the heterozygotes were used as cues for the construction of transformation series. The trees produced by the phenetic and cladistic methods were highly congruent. This result suggests that allozymes can be used to produce phylogenetic hypotheses at higher taxonomic levels than those at which they are more usually employed. The Solé difference between the various trees was the relative positions of Bunodosoma caissarum and Bunodactis verrucosa in relation to the two species of Urticina. This difference was probably due to a high rate of anagenic change in B. verrucosa, which distorted the UPGMA dendrogram. The genera Actinia and Urticina appeared monophyletic in all of the trees produced. Also, the sea anemones with specialized column structures such as verrucae and vesicles (U.felina, U. eques, B. verrucosa, B. caissarum) formed a monophyletic cluster, a result compatible with the suggestion that these structures may have appeared only once in the evolutionary history of the Actiniidae. 相似文献

The phylogenetic relationships among primitive anurans remain controversial, even when several morphological and molecular approaches have been used in an attempt to resolve them. Nevertheless, very little effort has been made to study these relationships with behavioural data. We studied the relation between some precopulatory behaviour characters (male call characteristics and call recognition by females) and the different proposed phylogenies among the anuran genera Alytes, Discoglossus and Bombina . Different acoustic variables were analysed from male calls of different species of these genera; Alytes cisternasii females were used in recognition tests with calls from those species. A phenetic tree generated from male call characteristics grouped Bombina with Discoglossu s and separated these two genera from Alytes, although the tree generated from female response data did not show such a clear result. A. cisternasii females are mostly using some features that are absent in Alytes calls in order to recognize male calls. The two characters, mapped onto the three alternative phylogenetic proposals, did not resolve the trichotomy among the three genera, but suggested that the studied behavioural characters have a clear phylogenetic load. 相似文献

Cluster analyses by different methods and a minimum spanning tree were used to study phenetic relationships in the genusChlerodendrum. 129 species were scored for 52 morphological characters corresponding to 119 character states. The phenetic results suggest a classification into 7 distinct groups, which may be grouped into two subgenera. This classification is supported by the iridoid distribution as well as by some phylogenetic considerations. 相似文献

The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) method was used to evaluate genetic diversity and to assess genetic relationships within the section Mentha in order to clarify the taxonomy of several interspecific mint hybrids with molecular markers. To this end, genetic diversity of 62 Mentha accessions from different geographic origins, representing five species and three hybrids, was assessed. Three EcoRI/MseI AFLP primer combinations generated an average of 40 AFLP markers per primer combination, ranging in size from 50 to 500 base pairs (bp). The percentage of markers polymorphic ranged from 50% to 60% across all accessions studied. According to phenetic and cladistic analysis, the 62 mint accessions were grouped into two major clusters. Principal coordinates analysis separated species into well-defined groups, and clear relationships between species and hybrids could be described. Our AFLP analysis supports taxonomic classification established among Mentha species by conventional (morphological, cytological, and chemical) methods. It allows the assessment of phenetic relationships between species and the hybrids M. spicata and M. × piperita, largely cultivated all over the world for their menthol source, and provides new insights into the subdivision of M. spicata, based for the first time on molecular markers. 相似文献

Trimeresurus (in its widest sense) is a very diverse and widespread radiation of Asian pitvipers, which has been subject to numerous taxonomic revisions, some of which have been based on characteristics of the skull. In order to evaluate the taxonomic utility of such characters, we conducted a comparison of the skulls of 57 specimens representing nine genera, and two currently unassigned species that are very closely related to each other. A canonical variate analysis reveals three distinct phenetic groups: the Protobothrops group, a group containing Ovophis monticola , ' Ovophis ' okinavensis , and ' Trimeresurus ' gracilis , and finally a group comprising the remaining species and characterized by considerable overlap between most genera with the exception of the monotypic Peltopelor and Himalayophis . Agreement between phenetic similarity based on skull characteristics and phylogenetic relationships based on molecular evidence varies between different groups: the morphological similarity of the skull of Protobothrops sieversorum to the other Protobothrops species is congruent with their recent synonymization while the phenetic similarity among the species within the second group does not reflect current molecular phylogenetic relationships and indicates that convergent or parallel evolution may be responsible for at least some of the phenetic similarity detected among skulls of the Asian pit vipers examined. A test of phylogenetic independence, however, indicates that there is still a significant phylogenetic signal that can be recovered from several skull characteristics. Thus, we conclude that skull morphology can contribute to an overall understanding of pitviper taxonomy, but that it would be unwise to rely on skull characteristics alone. 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationships among Secale species revealed by amplified fragment length polymorphisms.
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) data were utilized to analyze the phylogenetic relationships among 29 accessions representing 14 of the most commonly recognized ranked species or subspecies in the genus Secale. We observed 789 AFLP markers of 1130 fragments utilizing 18 P-/M- and E-/M- primer combinations. All polymorphic fragments were used to construct phenetic and phylogenetic trees. The resulting phenogram and cladogram had similar tree topologies. Cluster analysis showed that Secale sylvestre was the most distantly related to all other ryes. Annual forms were grouped together, and the perennial forms appeared more closely related to each other. This suggested that life cycle could have played an important role in determining the relationships among Secale species. Secale sylvestre was considered to be the most ancient species, whereas Secale cereale was the most recently evolved species. Amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis clearly separated all Secale species into only 3 major species groups, within the genus Secale: S. sylvestre, Secale montanum (syn. Secale strictum) for perennial forms, and S. cereale for annual forms. This study demonstrated that the AFLP approach is a useful tool for discriminating species differences, and also gave a much better resolution in discerning genetic relationships among Secale species as compared with previous studies using other approaches. 相似文献

AFLP markers were evaluated for determining the phylogenetic relationships Lactuca spp. Genetic distances based on AFLP data were estimated for 44 morphologically diverse lines of cultivated L. sativa and 13 accessions of the wild species L. serriola, L. saligna, L. virosa, L. perennis, and L. indica. The same genotypes were analyzed as in a previous study that had utilized RFLP markers. The phenetic tree based on AFLP data was consistent with known taxonomic relationships and similar to a tree developed with RFLP data. The genetic distance matrices derived from AFLP and RFLP data were compared using least squares regression analysis and, for the cultivar data, by principal component analysis. There was also a positive linear relationship between distance estimates based on AFLP data and kinship coefficients calculated from pedigree data. AFLPs represent reliable PCR-based markers for studies of genetic relationships at a variety of taxonomic levels. 相似文献

Although the examination of latitudinal gradients of species richness is common, little attention has been devoted to other components of biodiversity such as phenetic diversity. Because the phenotype reflects aspects of an organism's environment, ecological relationships and evolutionary history, measures of phenetic diversity likely provide complimentary information to that of species richness, and may provide unique insights for understanding the mechanistic basis to patterns of biodiversity. Herein, we evaluate latitudinal gradients in the phenetic diversity of 32 New World bat communities. Seven morphological characters were used to estimate phenotypic variation among bat species within local communities. Principal components analysis decomposed this variation into axes of size and shape. Three measures of phenetic diversity were calculated separately for size and for shape axes. The range of species scores on a particular axis described the amount of phenetic variation encompassed by species in a community. The standard deviation of minimum spanning‐tree segment lengths described uniformity of species. Average nearest‐neighbor distances described local packing. We separately regressed these six measures on local species richness and latitude separately. Variation in species richness accounted for a significant amount of variation in each measure of phenetic diversity. Latitude also accounted for significant variation in phenetic diversity except for the standard deviation of minimum‐spanning tree segment lengths and the average nearest‐neighbor distance on the shape axis. More importantly, gradients in phenetic diversity were significantly different than would be expected as a consequence of latitudinal gradients in species richness. Nonetheless, when variation among communities regarding the richness and composition of their regional faunas was taken into consideration, differences between empirical and simulated gradients were nonsignificant. Thus, factors that determine the composition of regional faunas have a great impact on the phenetic diversity of communities and ultimately the latitudinal gradient in biodiversity. 相似文献

The Drosophila buzzatii species cluster consists of the sibling species D. buzzatii, D. koepferae, D. serido, D. borborema, D. seriema, D. antonietae and D. gouveai, all of which breed exclusively in decaying cactus tissue and, except for D. buzzatii (a colonizing subcosmopolitan species), are endemic to South America. Using a morphometric approach and multivariate analysis of 17 wing parameters, we investigated the degree of divergence in wing morphology among the sibling species of this cluster. Significant differences were obtained among the species and discriminant analysis showed that wing morphology was sufficiently different to allow the correct classification of 98.6% of the 70 individuals analysed. The phenetic relationships among the species inferred from UPGMA cluster analysis based on squared Mahalanobis distances (D2) were generally compatible with previously published phylogenetic relationships. These results suggest that wing morphology within D. buzzatii cluster is of phylogenetic importance. 相似文献

Numerical phenetics, based on indiscriminate choice of characters and equal weighting, does not directly reflect cladistic or lineage relationships in some taxa ofHaplopappus. However, the degree to which the lineage and phenetic relationships diverge may be used as an assay of the amount of parallel evolution that has occurred. Several numerical taxonomic methods were employed. For each method a change in the number of characters from 31 to 29, by deletion of two karyotypic characters, yielded a significant change in the results. Uses of numerical techniques for the study of character dines and adaptive character complexes are discussed. 相似文献

Horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was employed to investigate allozyme variation at 19 isozyme loci, in nine closely-related Atlantic-Mediterranean gobiid fish species, to assess genetic relationships, and to compare this with a phyletic hypothesis based on morphological apo-morphies. The species examined were Gobius niger, G. auratus, G. cruentatus, G. paganellus, Mauligobius maderensis, Zosterisessor ophiocephalus, Thorogobius ephippiatus, Padogobius martensii and P. nigricans . Various phenetic and cladistic analyses were performed on isozyme and morphological data. The phenetic and cladistic results from morphological data, and the cladistic results from isozyme data, were largely comparable, with P. martensü and P. nigricans forming a sister group to all the other taxa, species of Cobius forming a crown group within the latter, and stem lines formed by Mauligobius, Zosterisessor and Thorogobius , respectively. The isozymic estimates of genetic distance differed from these chiefly in the relative positions of Zosterisessor and G. auratus , which appear less similar to other species of Gohius. G. auratus shows many alleles which are unique within the genus Gobius ; possible explanations for this are put forward. The position of nigricans as congeneric with Padogobius martensü is confirmed by both phenetic and cladistic analyses of isozyme data. 相似文献

The phylogenetic placement of the monotypic crab plover Dromasardeola (Aves, Charadriiformes) remains controversial. Phylogenetic analysis of anatomical and behavioral traits using phenetic and cladistic methods of tree inference have resulted in conflicting tree topologies, suggesting a close association of Dromas to members of different suborders and lineages within Charadriiformes. Here, we revisited the issue by applying Bayesian and parsimony methods of tree inference to 2,012 anatomical and 5,183 molecular characters to a set of 22 shorebird genera (including Turnix). Our results suggest that Bayesian analysis of anatomical characters does not resolve the phylogenetic relationship of shorebirds with strong statistical support. In contrast, Bayesian and parsimony tree inference from molecular data provided much stronger support for the phylogenetic relationships within shorebirds, and support a sister relationship of Dromas to Glareolidae (pratincoles and coursers), in agreement with previously published DNA-DNA hybridization studies. 相似文献
