Currently, there are four valid species of Trimerotropis in South America. However, some species were found to comprise several genetic lineages. Here, we describe the genetic structure, lineage diversification, and environmental requirements within the Trimerotropis species complex in South America based on sequences from the mitochondrial COI gene, 4048 single nucleotide polymorphisms, and ecological niche modelling. The analyses revealed the existence of at least five lineages: two with a restricted geographical distribution and three with a very wide one. The results provide evidence that glacial cycles promoted not only the presence of refuge areas but also the isolation of widely distributed lineages on the eastern and western sides of the southern Andes, potentially driving the emergence of the Trimerotropis sp. lineage, which can tolerate more temperate habitats. Our results provide evidence for the effects of Pleistocene climatic changes on the diversification history of a South American grasshopper species complex.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Variation in whole-animal performance among mature individuals can become broadened by phenotypic plasticity driven by early life experiences. Thus, detailing the environmental factors that contribute to phenotypic plasticity, and the associated phenotypic responses governed by those environmental factors, is essential if we are to understand the evolution of whole-animal performance. Here, using isogenic lines established from the hermaphroditic mangrove rivulus fish (Kryptolebias marmoratus) housed in a ‘common garden’, we investigate the link between variation in adult terrestrial jumping performance and early life experience (i.e. egg density). First, we hypothesize that individuals from different isogenic lineages should vary in jumping performance independent of egg density, suggesting a strict genetic source of variation. Second, we hypothesize that phenotypic plasticity should also introduce variation in adult jumping performance. Specifically, we expect that hatchlings incubated at higher egg densities in early development should adopt better jumping performances as adults, because higher egg density might be a cue for greater intraspecific competition upon hatching.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"28 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138526328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Answering this key question can be experimentally intractable, but closely related clonal species allow a direct approach: experimentally provoking phenotypic plasticity to assess the adaptive significance of both plastic traits and species differences. Two common Caribbean sponge species, Aplysina fulva and A. cauliformis, are nearly indistinguishable molecularly, and share growth form, habitat, and geographical range. This raises questions about species boundaries, within-species variability, and mechanisms of speciation. To distinguish phenotypic plasticity from genetic variation, and learn how plasticity might influence adaptive—and divergent—evolution, I: (i) quantified morphological and ecological characters, (ii) revealed phenotypic plasticity by growing clonemates in different environments, and (iii) related plastic morphological features to ecological function. Characters included skeletal fibre density, biomechanical properties, vulnerability to parasites and predators, wound healing, transport pathways, propagation by fragments, population dynamics, and growth and survival in settings differing in food, sunlight, predators, and water motion. Transplanting both species to a different environment elicited parallel plasticity in the same traits. Combined comparative and experimental data reveal integrated suites of ecologically relevant characters that clearly distinguish these species and allow interpretation of adaptive significance of plastic characters that may underlie divergence.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"11 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138526329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Goto Islands are located near Kyushu, a major island in the Japanese Archipelago. We have previously reported that the population of the Japanese Genji firefly, Nipponoluciola cruciata, inhabiting the Goto Islands displays a unique flashing pattern that is used for pre-mating communication between males and females, indicating the possibility of genetic isolation of the Goto Islands population from neighbouring N. cruciata populations. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the gene flow between the Goto Islands N. cruciata population and its neighbouring island populations by molecular phylogenetic analyses based on the mitochondrial DNA regions of cytochrome c oxidase subunit II and ND5, also coupled to genome-wide analysis of nuclear DNA single nucleotide polymorphisms. Our results suggested that the Goto Islands N. cruciata population is genetically isolated from other populations of this species. Nuclear DNA-based population analyses indicated gene flow between the populations inhabiting the Kyushu and Iki Islands, situated at a distance approximately equal to that between the Goto and Kyushu Islands. Therefore, the genetic isolation of the Goto Islands N. cruciata population is largely affected by flashing pattern behaviour, underlining an ongoing speciation process.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"30 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138526348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the East Asian subgenus Glutinaria, species have been categorized based on their distinct flower and stamen morphologies. A hypothesized advantage of degraded-lever types suggests they may optimize pollinator foraging time, increase visitation rates, and potentially trigger autonomous self-pollination. However, this hypothesis remains untested. Here, Salvia castanea, S. miltiorrhiza, and S. liguliloba were selected as test species representing the three major flower and stamen types of the East Asian sages. We compared the species with regard to their inflorescence architecture, floral display, nectar reward, pollinator efficiency, and seed set. We found that S. liguliloba had a degraded-lever type that significantly reduced pollinator foraging time did not significantly increase pollination efficiency. These species have a mixed mating pattern with high seed set, no pollen- or pollinator limitation, and no inbreeding depression. We conclude that the diversity of floral traits is addressed to pollinators, whereas reproductive success emerges from a complex interplay of factors encompassing floral characteristics, pollination efficiency, plant life history, or/and other biotic and abiotic factors. For this reason, the link between floral morphological traits and mating systems should not overestimated.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138526347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We also wanted to investigate whether these colour morphs represent divergent lineages or incipient species. We sequenced one nuclear and two mitochondrial genes from 32 individuals of I. ampulla. We used phylogenetic, population genetic, and niche modelling tools to address these questions. The results suggested that the colour morphs were not reciprocally monophyletic and exhibited considerable niche overlap, suggesting that they cannot be considered as incipient species. Furthermore, the results showed that the impact of palaeoclimatic oscillations in shaping the genetic diversity of this species cannot be determined conclusively. The Palghat Gap seems to have shaped the genetic diversity in this group to a certain degree. The colour morph distributed south of the Palghat Gap did not show admixture and exhibited the least amount of niche overlap with the other morphs.

Previous work in these fishes showed that traits such as age and size at maturity, reproductive allocation, and number and size of offspring can each be shaped by natural selection. Life history traits can also be influenced by the environment, and in some cases, such phenotypic plasticity can also be adaptive. Resource availability in the environment can affect life history trait expression with increased resources expected to result in increased investment in reproduction. Here, we test this hypothesis in the Costa Rican livebearing fish Priapichthys annectens by quantifying life history traits and comparing trait values between populations collected during the dry season versus the wet season, periods when resource availability varies. We found that life history traits related to reproductive investment, but not the timing of reproductive events, differed between seasons. During the wet season, female body condition increased, and females invested less in reproduction, having fewer but larger offspring. Irrespective of the season, larger females gave birth to larger offspring. Finally, we found that this species utilizes a lecithotrophic strategy of provisioning eggs with nutrients being deposited in the ova prior to fertilization, and that females only carry one developing brood at a time (no superfetation). This is the first study documenting the life history of P. annectens, and it adds to a growing body of work suggesting that seasonal environmental differences can induce changes in the expression of some—but not all—life history traits.","PeriodicalId":55373,"journal":{"name":"Biological Journal of the Linnean Society","volume":"51 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138526366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we amplified and sequenced the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region from the skeletal remains of delphinids that were excavated from the Shomyoji Midden, a site situated on the western coast of Tokyo Bay and dating to 5000–3000 years before the present. We acquired prehistoric D-loop sequences of seven bottlenose dolphins, six Pacific white-sided dolphins, and a false killer whale. Notably, one or more haplotypes from the prehistoric individuals were detected in the geographically proximate modern conspecific populations across all three species. Whilst the genetic diversity of prehistoric and modern Pacific white-sided dolphin populations appears to be comparable, the modern bottlenose dolphin population demonstrates significantly lower genetic diversity when compared to its prehistoric counterpart in the vicinity of Tokyo Bay.
