Interspecific gene flow by hybridization may weaken adaptive divergence, but can be overcome by selection against hybrids, which may ultimately promote reinforcement. An informative step towards understanding the role of gene flow during speciation is to describe patterns of past gene flow among extant species. We investigate signals of admixture between allopatric and sympatric populations of the two closely related European dung fly species <i>Sepsis cynipsea</i> and <i>S. neocynipsea</i> (Diptera: Sepsidae). Based on microsatellite genotypes, we first inferred a baseline demographic history using Approximate Bayesian Computation. We then used genomic data from pooled DNA of natural and laboratory populations to test for past interspecific gene flow based on allelic configurations discordant with the inferred population tree (ABBA-BABA test with <i>D</i>-statistic). Comparing the detected signals of gene flow with the contemporary geographic relationship among interspecific pairs of populations (sympatric vs. allopatric), we made two contrasting observations. At one site in the French Cevennes, we detected an excess of past interspecific gene flow, while at two sites in Switzerland we observed lower signals of past microsatellite genotypes gene flow among populations in sympatry compared to allopatric populations. These results suggest that the species boundaries between these two species depend on the past and/or present eco-geographic context in Europe, which indicates that there is no uniform link between contemporary geographic proximity and past interspecific gene flow in natural populations.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11692-023-09612-5.</p>","PeriodicalId":50471,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Biology","volume":" ","pages":"395-412"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10579158/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46206869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Investigating the Relationship Between Body Shape and Life History Traits in Toothed Whales: Can Body Shape Predict Fast-Slow Life Histories?","authors":"Steven H Ferguson, Jeff W Higdon, Chloe Schmidt, Corinne Pomerleau, Cory J D Matthews","doi":"10.1007/s11692-023-09605-4","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s11692-023-09605-4","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>A widespread pattern in vertebrate life-history evolution is for species to evolve towards either fast or slow life histories; however, the underlying causes of this pattern remain unclear. Toothed whales (Odontoceti) are a diverse group with a range of body sizes and life histories, making them an ideal model to investigate potential drivers of this dichotomy. Using ancestral reconstruction, we identified that certain groups of odontocetes evolved more-streamlined, presumably faster, body shapes around the same time that killer whales (<i>Orcinus orca</i>) evolved into whale predators approximately 1 Mya during the Pleistocene. This suggests that the evolution of a streamlined body shape may have been an adaptation to escape killer whale predation, leading to longer life-history events. To test this hypothesis, we performed a cluster analysis of odontocete whales and confirmed the dual pattern of life-history traits, with one group referred to as 'reproducers' characterized by early age of maturity, short gestation, short interbirth interval, and short lifespan, and the other group referred to as 'bet-hedgers' exhibiting the opposite pattern. However, we found that life history grouping was relatively unrelated to whale shape (i.e., more streamlined or less streamlined). Therefore, we incorporated principal component results into mixed effects models, and the model results indicated that body shape was positively related to neonate length (a measure of investment in progeny), but not significantly related to the temporal life-history traits. Thus, whale body shape is not a sufficient explanation for the evolution of fast-slow life histories in odontocete whales.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11692-023-09605-4.</p>","PeriodicalId":50471,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Biology","volume":"50 3","pages":"300-317"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10415445/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10352045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The used-together-fused-together hypothesis holds that genes that are used together repeatedly and persistently in a specific context are more likely to undergo fusion mutation in the course of evolution for mechanistic reasons. This hypothesis offers to explain gene fusion in both evolution and disease under one umbrella. Using bioinformatic data, we tested this hypothesis against alternatives, including that all gene pairs can fuse by random mutation, but among pairs thus fused, those that had interacted previously are more likely to be favored by selection. Results show that across multiple measures of gene interaction, human genes whose orthologs are fused in one or more species are more likely to interact with each other than random pairs of genes of the same genomic distance between pair members; that an overlap exists between genes that fused in the course of evolution in non-human species and genes that undergo fusion in human cancers; and that across six primate species studied, fusions predominate over fissions and exhibit substantial evolutionary parallelism. Together, these results support the used-together-fused-together hypothesis over its alternatives. Multiple implications are discussed, including the relevance of mutational mechanisms to the evolution of genome organization, to the distribution of fitness effects of mutation, to evolutionary parallelism and more.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11692-022-09579-9.</p>","PeriodicalId":50471,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Biology","volume":"50 1","pages":"30-55"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9925542/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10767184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
