Eurythoe complanata (Pallas 1766) has been considered a cosmopolitan species with a great morphological similarity across its geographic range.
To elucidate whether E. complanata is actually a single species, genetic (cytochrome oxidase subunit I and allozymes) and morphological differences were compared
among specimens from the Pacific, Caribbean, and South Atlantic Oceans. Large levels of COI divergence (10–22%) and diagnostic
allozyme loci identified three cryptic species: one in the eastern Pacific and two in the Atlantic, with one being morphologically
differentiated and found only in islands. COI sequences between Pacific and Atlantic lineages were much more divergent than
those of other transisthmian invertebrates, indicating their split before the Panama Isthmus closure or a faster evolutionary
rate of COI for this species. The existence of two Atlantic species may be a consequence of parapatric speciation followed
by a secondary invasion or even a sympatric speciation in the Atlantic oceanic islands. 相似文献

Relatively few insects have invaded the marine environment, and only five species of sea skaters, Halobates Eschscholtz (Hemiptera: Gerridae), have successfully colonized the surface of the open ocean. All five species occur in the
Pacific Ocean, H. germanus White also occurs in the Indian Ocean, whereas H. micans Esch- scholtz is the only species found in the Atlantic Ocean. We sequenced a 780 bp long region of the mitochondrial cytochrome
oxidase subunit I gene (COI) for a total of 66 specimens of the five oceanic Halobates species. Our purpose was to investigate the genetic variation within species and estimate the amount of gene flow between
populations. We defined 27 haplotypes for H. micans and found that haplotype lineages from each of the major oceans occupied by this species are significantly different, having
sequences containing five to seven unique base substitutions. We conclude that gene flow between populations of H. micans inhabiting the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Ocean is limited and hypothesize that these populations have been separated
for 1 to 3 million years. Similarly, there may be limited gene flow between H. germanus populations found in the Pacific and Indian Ocean and between H. sericeus populations inhabiting the northern and southern parts of the Pacific Ocean. Finally, we discuss our findings in relation
to recent hypotheses about the influence of oceanic diffusion on the distribution and population structure of oceanic Halobates spp.

Pelagic species have been traditionally thought to occupy vast, genetically interconnected, geographic ranges in an essentially homogeneous environment. Although this view has been challenged recently for some mesopelagic planktonic taxa, the population structure of hyponeustonic (surface-drifting) species remains unknown. Here, we test the hypothesis of panmixis in Glaucus atlanticus, a cosmopolitan neustonic nudibranch, by assessing the genetic differentiation of multiple representatives from a global neustonic sampling effort. Specimens were collected from all subtropical oceanic gyre systems (North Atlantic, South Atlantic, North Pacific, South Pacific, and Indian Ocean). We sequenced a fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene for 98 individuals and performed population structure, differentiation (analysis of molecular variance, spatial analysis of molecular variance, F ST, Jost’s D), and molecular clock analyses. Our results indicate that G. atlanticus is not globally panmictic, but that populations appear to be panmictic within ocean basins. We detected several topologically ectopic haplotypes in the Atlantic Ocean, but the molecular clock analysis indicates that these have diverged from closely related Indo-Pacific haplotypes over 1.2 MYA, coinciding with cooling in waters around in the southern tip of Africa and resulting oceanographic changes. These data and the fact that G. atlanticus is not known from polar latitudes suggest that gene flow between ocean basins is hindered by physical barriers (supercontinents) and water temperatures in the Arctic and Southern Oceans. 相似文献

Global population structure of albacore (Thunnus alalunga) inferred by RFLP analysis of the mitochondrial ATPase gene 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The genetic population structure of the highly migratory albacore (Thunnus alalunga) was investigated using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the mitochondrial ATPase gene amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). 620 individuals comprising 13 geographically distant samples (ten Pacific, two Atlantic and the Cape of Good Hope) were surveyed between 1991 and 1994 with two restriction endonucleases (Mse I and Rsa I), resulting in seven haplotypes. No heterogeneity was observed in the distribution of haplotypes among the ten samples from the North and South Pacific, nor among the samples from North and South Atlantic and Cape of Good Hope. However, highly significant heterogeneity was evident among Atlantic and Pacific samples. Higher haplotypic diversity (h) was observed in the Pacific samples (0.59 to 0.69) than in the Atlantic and Cape samples (0.22 to 0.43). These results suggest greater gene flow between albacore of the northern and southern hemispheres (within oceans) than between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. 相似文献

Genetic stock structure of the swordfish (Xiphias gladius ) inferred by PCR-RFLP analysis of the mitochondrial DNA control region 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was performed on PCR amplified DNA fragments containing the control
region of the swordfish (Xiphias gladius Linnaeus, 1758) mitochondrial DNA. A total of 456 individuals comprising 13 local samples (six Pacific, three Atlantic, the
Mediterranean Sea, two Indian Ocean and the Cape of Good Hope) were surveyed with four endonucleases (Alu I, Dde I, Hha I and Rsa I), yielding a total of 52 composite genotypes. Within-sample genotypic diversity (H) was high ranging from 0.702 to 0.962 with a value of 0.922 for the pooled sample. Significant geographic variation in the
frequencies of genotypes and restriction patterns was revealed. The Mediterranean sample was highly distinct from all other
samples. Further, Rsa I digestion revealed high levels of polymorphism in all but the Mediterranean samples, indicating that exogenous swordfishes
rarely enter that body of water. Heterogeneity between the North and South Atlantic samples was significant, both of which
differed from those of the Pacific. In contrast, the Indian Ocean samples were not significantly different from the samples
of South Atlantic and Pacific. Genetic differentiation among the Pacific samples was low. The results indicate that the world-wide
swordfish population is genetically structured not only among, but also within ocean basins and suggest that gene flow is
restricted despite the absence of geographic barriers.

The tropical lancelet Asymmetron lucayanum (= Epigonichthys lucayanus) is distributed from the western Indian Ocean to the central Pacific Ocean, and the western Atlantic Ocean. Molecular phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences (1,035 bp) of A. lucayanum (80 specimens from seven localities) showed clearly that this species is genetically distinguished into three major groups of geographical populations based on neighbor-joining tree using maximum likelihood distance (HKY model with invariable sites and gamma correction), suggesting the existence of three cryptic species. Our genetic data show that (1) inter-oceanic divergence time between Clade B (the West-Central Pacific) and Clade C (the Atlantic) (d = 6.6%, ca. 12 million years ago) was smaller than intra-oceanic divergence time between Clade A (the Indo-West Pacific) and Clade B (d=39.5%, ca. 100 million years ago); (2) there are two cryptic species in the West Pacific in sympatry; and (3) high gene flow is implied between the Maldives and the Ryukyus in Clade A (10,000 km distance), the Philippines and Hawaii in Clade B (8,500 km distance), and Barbados and Bermuda in Clade C (2,200 km distance). 相似文献

Summary Humpback whale songs recorded on tropical calving grounds exhibit different dialects depending on the oceanic basin. Songs sampled simultaneously from two populations in the North Pacific (Hawaii and Mexico) were essentially identical. These North Pacific songs were clearly different from the song type shared by two populations in the North Atlantic (Cape Verde Islands and West Indies). Songs from the Southern Hemisphere (Tonga) represent a third distinct dialect. Our evidence shows that, despite annual change in song organization, significant differences in humpback song occur between isolated ocean basins, while only subtle differences exist within an oceanic population (Hawaii and Pacific Mexico). 相似文献

Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) is a large, mesopelagic fish that inhabits tropical and temperate seas throughout the world, and is a common bycatch in
pelagic longline fisheries that target tuna and swordfish. Few studies have explored the biology and natural history of escolar,
and little is known regarding its population structure. To evaluate the genetic basis of population structure of escolar throughout
their range, we surveyed genetic variation over an 806 base pair fragment of the mitochondrial control region. In total, 225
individuals from six geographically distant locations throughout the Atlantic (Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, South Africa) and Pacific
(Ecuador, Hawaii, Australia) were analyzed. A neighbor-joining tree of haplotypes based on maximum likelihood distances revealed
two highly divergent clades (δ = 4.85%) that were predominantly restricted to the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific ocean basins.
All Atlantic clade individuals occurred in the Atlantic Ocean and all but four Pacific clade individuals were found in the
Pacific Ocean. The four Atlantic escolar with Pacific clade haplotypes were found in the South Africa collection. The nuclear
ITS-1 gene region of these four individuals was subsequently analyzed and compared to the ITS-1 gene region of four individuals
from the South Africa collection with Atlantic clade haplotypes as well as four representative individuals each from the Atlantic
and Pacific collections. The four South Africa escolar with Pacific mitochondrial control region haplotypes all had ITS-1
gene region sequences that clustered with the Pacific escolar, suggesting that they were recent migrants from the Indo-Pacific.
Due to the high divergence and geographic separation of the Atlantic and Pacific clades, as well as reported morphological
differences between Atlantic and Indo-Pacific specimens, consideration of the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific populations as separate
species or subspecies may be warranted, though further study is necessary. 相似文献

In spite of historical and current interest in Ciona intestinalis and its congeners, little is known about evolutionary relationships among the members of the genus Ciona. Here 744-bp sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene are used to examine phylogenetic relationships among three described species (C. intestinalis, C. roulei, C. savignyi) sampled from multiple coastal sites in the Northeast Pacific (CA, USA), Northwest Atlantic (from New Hampshire to Connecticut,
USA), Northeast Atlantic (Sweden and The Netherlands), and Mediterranean (Banyuls-sur-Mer, France). The samples were collected
in June–October 2005. The COI sequences of Northeast Pacific/Mediterranean (Type A) and Northwest Atlantic (Type B) C. intestinalis differ by ∼12% and C. roulei is nested within Type B C. intestinalis. Ciona savignyi differs from all other haplotypes by 13–16%. A previously undescribed but morphologically distinct Ciona sp. found at the Banyuls-sur-Mer site was >10% divergent from all other haplotypes. Although these data arise from a single
gene study, they indicate that further elucidation of species relationships within the genus and of the species’ distributions
will be needed if continuing invasions and potential reproductive isolation are to be investigated. 相似文献

Barnacles in the genus Chelonibia are commensal with a variety of motile marine animals including sea turtles, crustaceans, and sirenians. We conducted a worldwide molecular phylogenetic survey of Chelonibia collected from nearly all known hosts to assess species relationships, host-fidelity, and phylogeographic structure. Using DNA sequences from a protein-coding mitochondrial gene (COI), a mitochondrial rRNA gene (12S), and one nuclear rRNA gene (28S), we found that of four species, three (C. testudinaria, C. patula, and C. manati) are genetically indistinguishable. In addition, we show each utilizes a rare androdioecious mode of reproduction involving complemental males. In contrast, the fourth species (C. caretta), which is hermaphroditic and specializes on turtles, is genetically distinct—leading to the conclusion that the three former taxa are morphotypes of the same species and should be synonymized under C. testudinaria. Phylogenetic analysis resulted in three geographic clades (Atlantic, Indian Ocean/western Pacific, and eastern Pacific) with haplotype parsimony networks revealing no shared haplotypes among geographic regions. Analysis of molecular variance detected significant differences among sequences by region (p < 0.005); conversely, there were no significant differences among sequences when grouped by host or taxonomic designation. Average pairwise genetic distances were lower between the eastern Pacific and Atlantic clades (0.053 ± 0.006) than between the eastern Pacific and Indian Ocean/western Pacific clades (0.073 ± 0.008), suggesting Atlantic and eastern Pacific populations were connected more recently, perhaps until the rise of the Isthmus of Panama. Host use by Chelonibia morphotypes is discussed along with speculation on possible ancestral hosts and support for a “turtle-first” hypothesis. 相似文献

The distribution and genetic structure of many marine invertebrates in the North Atlantic have been influenced by the Pleistocene glaciation, which caused local extinctions followed by recolonization in warmer periods. Mitochondrial DNA markers are typically used to reconstruct species histories. Here, two mitochondrial markers [16S rDNA and cytochrome c oxidase I (COI)] were used to study the evolution of the widely distributed hydrozoan Obelia geniculata (Linnaeus, 1758) from the North Atlantic and the Pacific and, more specifically, in the context of North Atlantic phylogeography. Samples were collected from six geographic localities between 1998 and 2002. Hydroids from the North Atlantic, North Pacific (Japan), and South Pacific (New Zealand) are reciprocally monophyletic and may represent cryptic species. Using portions of the 16S rDNA and COI genes and the date of the last trans-Arctic interchange (3.1–4.1 million years ago), the first calibrated rate of nucleotide substitutions in hydrozoans is presented. Whereas extremely low substitution rates have been reported in other cnidarians, mainly based on anthozoans, substitution rates in O. geniculata are comparable to other invertebrates. Despite a life history that ostensibly permits substantial dispersal, there is apparently considerable genetic differentiation in O. geniculata. Divergence estimates and the presence of unique haplotypes provide evidence for glacial refugia in Iceland and New Brunswick, Canada. A population in Massachusetts, USA, appears to represent a relatively recent colonization event.Communicated by J.P. Grassle, New Brunswick 相似文献

The understanding of population structure and gene flow of marine pelagic species is paramount to monitoring, management and
conservation studies. Such studies are often hampered by the potentially high dispersal behavior of the species, the lack
of obvious geographical barriers in the marine environment and the scarce sample availability. Short-beaked common dolphins
(Delphinus delphis) are widespread in coastal and open-ocean habitats of the North Atlantic Ocean, nevertheless population structure and migratory
patterns are poorly understood. Furthermore, concern has been raised about the status of the species because large numbers
of dolphins have been taken incidentally in several fisheries throughout the North Atlantic in the past decades. In the present
study, a large number of individual samples were obtained from seasonal and spatial aggregations of common dolphins from western
(wNA) and eastern North Atlantic (eNA) regions, mostly using opportunistic sampling (i.e. from incidental entanglement in
fishing gear or beach-cast carcasses). Genetic variability was investigated using nuclear (14 microsatellite loci) and mitochondrial
(360 bp of the control region) genetic markers. Levels of genetic diversity were relatively high in all sampled areas and
no evidence of recent reduction of effective population size (i.e. bottleneck) was detected at the nuclear loci. Significant
population structure was detected between the two main regions (wNA and eNA) where it appeared to be more pronounced at mitochondrial
(F
ST = 0.018, P < 0.001) than nuclear markers (F
ST = 0.005, P < 0.05), indicating the presence of at least two genetically distinct populations of common dolphins in the North Atlantic
Ocean. In contrast, no significant genetic structure was detected between temporal aggregations of dolphins from within the
same region, suggesting possible seasonal movement patterns at a regional scale. The observed levels of genetic differentiation
between classes of markers are discussed here as a possible consequence of migratory patterns or recent population subdivision.

Allozyme and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genetic variation was compared in orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus Collett) collected from waters off southern Australia and from waters about 22 000 km away in the North Atlantic west of Scotland. Samples were screened for 11 polymorphic allozyme loci and with 9 restriction enzymes. Significant heterogeneity between the two areas was detected for three allozyme loci (ADA
*, CK
* and GPI-1
*), and the overall G
ST
(gene-diversity statistic) value of 1% was small but significant. Significant mtDNA haplotype heterogeneity was observed after 2- of haplotype frequencies but not after a G
ST
analysis. Nucleotide sequence-diversity analysis showed very low net divergence (0.0023%) between the two samples. The Australian orange roughy had a lower allozyme heterozygosity and a lower mitochondrial DNA nucleon diversity than the North Atlantic sample. The very limited, although significant, allozyme and mitochondrial DNA heterogeneity between these areas suggests that there is some gene flow between these two populations. The species appears to be widespread, with its presence reported from the southern Pacific, southern Indian, and northern and southern Atlantic Oceans, and it is likely that gene flow between the antipodes is mediated by stepping-stone exchange between adjacent populations rather than by direct migration. 相似文献

Direct-developing intertidal Lasaea spp. occur in the North Atlantic as both continental margin and oceanic island populations. We conducted a molecular phylogenetic
analysis of representative populations in order to test colonization hypotheses for North Atlantic oceanic islands. Thirty
individuals each were collected in 1995 and 1996 from two continental putative source populations (Florida, Iberia) and two
oceanic island populations (Bermuda, Azores). They were sequenced for a 462 nucleotide portion of the mitochondrial large
ribosomal subunit (16S) gene. No amphi-Atlantic genotypes were detected: Bermudan lineages co-clustered exclusively with Floridian
congeners, and Azorean samples formed an exclusive clade with Iberian haplotypes. Our data indicate that geographical proximity
to continental source populations is a better predictor of phylogenetic relationships in North Atlantic Lasaea spp. than present-day oceanic surface circulation patterns. The phylogenetic trees generated are not consistent with colonization
of oceanic islands by indirect-developing ancestral lineages or by truly trans-oceanic rafting events. However, they are consistent
with predicted topologies resulting from limited (≤ 2000 km), long-distance colonization by rafting (against present-day circulation
patterns in the case of the Azores) and from anthropogenic introductions.

Meganyctiphanes norvegica (M. Sars)is a pelagic crustacean that plays a key role in marine food webs of North Atlantic Ocean and marginal seas. We
studied eight population samples collected in the European Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. By means of single strand conformation
polymorphism analysis (SSCP) and direct sequencing, we investigated a segment of 158 base pairs of the mitochondrial gene
coding for the subunit 1 of NADH dehydrogenase. We found 12 sequence variants among the 385 individuals studied. Analysis
of molecular variance (AMOVA) showed that 14.75% of the total genetic variability was explained by differences between populations,
thus indicating absence of panmixia for these populations. Pairwise comparisons revealed three distinct genetic pools: the
first one represented by Cadiz Bay, the second one by the Ligurian Sea, and the third one included all the NE Atlantic samples.
We also investigated one population from the Alboran Sea (within the Mediterranean basin, east of the Strait of Gibraltar).
This population was found to be genetically intermediate between the NE Atlantic samples and the Ligurian sample, suggesting
that the restriction to the gene flow is not associated with the Strait of Gibraltar, but possibly with the Oran–Almeria oceanographic
front. The present work indicates that M. norvegica, although endowed with a high dispersal capacity because of its pelagic habit, can develop separate breeding units inside
the same oceanic basin (the Atlantic). Furthermore, the Ligurian sample should be considered as a distinct evolutionary entity,
separated from the Atlantic population.

Loggerhead sea turtle hatchlings emerge from nests on either the east or west coast of the South Florida peninsula and then
migrate offshore in opposite directions. Under laboratory conditions, magnetic cues induce east coast hatchlings to swim in
directions that promote their transport by oceanic surface currents, such as the North Atlantic gyre. However, the surface
currents used by west coast hatchlings are unknown. We examined the responses of west (Sarasota) hatchlings to magnetic cues
in the Gulf of Mexico, the Florida Straits, and the Gulf Stream to determine their (1) likely migratory routes (2) orientation
where currents lead into the Atlantic Ocean, and (3) orientation adjacent to Florida’s east coast. The results suggest that
migration inside Gulf waters may be circuitous, that the turtles respond appropriately to enter Atlantic waters, and that
orientation along Florida’s east coast probably promotes transport by the Gulf Stream into the North Atlantic gyre. 相似文献

In order to determine the effects of bottom depth and water column structure on slope distributions, lanternfishes in the Cape Canyon and Cape Point Valley (eastern South Atlantic) and from the Feni Ridge and Hebridean Terrace (eastern North Atlantic) were sampled with commercial midwater nets fished 10 m above the bottom at preselected depths. Fifty-one species were taken in the eastern South Atlantic and 17 species in the eastern North Atlantic. Analyses of the samples included clustering and multi-dimensional scaling ordination of the root-root transformed densities using the Bray-Curtis similarity index. In the eastern South Atlantic (March 1988), where the horizontal and vertical temperature structuring of the water column was marked, oceanic myctophids were not taken shallower than the 300 m-depth horizon and less than one-third of the total number of species occurred inside the 500 m-depth horizon. Temperatures and bottom depths correlated with the downslope distributions of the species. Down-slope zonation was apparent. In the eastern North Atlantic (May 1983), where the temperature structure of the water column was similar at all stations, no oceanic species were taken at the 200 m-depth horizon and more than one-half of the total number of species was taken at the 300 m-depth horizon. Species distributions correlated with depth, and downslope zonation was not evident. The data sets, as well as information from the West Florida slope, suggest that both the depth and the regional temperature structure of the water column effect the upper slope distributions of oceanic myctophids. Long-slope, ribbon distribution patterns (generalized down-slope zonation) in myctophids may therefore be localized artifacts produced by the interaction of these factors. 相似文献

Morphologically plastic, cryptic, or geographically widespread species pose similar challenges to the evolutionary biologist:
their taxonomic status is often unclear yet must be known to study almost any aspect of their biology, ecology, evolution,
or biogeography. The marine bryozoan Membranipora membranacea (L.) is morphologically plastic and geographically widespread in temperate oceans of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres,
and its taxonomy is unclear. This study examined genetic relationships among allopatric populations and sympatric morphs of
this species, or species complex. Colonies were collected from 1992 to 1995. Allozymes were used to elucidate the relationships
among four widely separated populations, two in the North Atlantic and two in the North Pacific Ocean. Allozymes and mtDNA
sequencing were used to clarify the genetic relationships among three sympatric morphs that might correspond to the species
M. villosa Hincks and M. membranacea in the northeastern Pacific (Washington State). Populations in the North Atlantic and North Pacific had no fixed allelic
differences at the loci tested but were separated by an average Nei's genetic distance of 0.581, suggesting their near-sibling
species status. Populations from Friday Harbor (Washington) and Catalina Island (California) were not significantly differentiated,
which was attributed to high gene flow. Populations on either side of the North Atlantic were genetically indistinguishable,
which is most likely due to the recent establishment of the West Atlantic populations from European founders. At Friday Harbor,
sympatric morphs varying in their spination and spine inducibility were genetically indistinguishable, supporting the hypothesis
that M. villosa is an induced phenotype of M. membranacea and not a distinct species in the northeastern Pacific. Since such phenotypic plasticity is common in cheilostome bryozoans,
the morphospecies concept must be used with caution.

Blue mussels in the genus Mytilus first arrived in the Atlantic Ocean from the Pacific during the Pliocene, following the opening of the Bering Strait. Repeated
periods of glaciation throughout the Pleistocene led to re-isolation of the two ocean basins and the allopatric divergence
of Mytilus edulis in the Atlantic and M. trossulus in the Pacific. Mytilus trossulus has subsequently colonized the northwest Atlantic (NW Atlantic) so that the two species are presently sympatric and hybridize
throughout much of the Canadian Maritimes and the Gulf of Maine. To estimate when M. trossulus arrived in the NW Atlantic, we have examined sequence variation within a portion of the female mtDNA lineage large untranslated
region (F-LUR) for 156 mussels sampled from three Pacific and eleven Atlantic populations of M. trossulus. Although we found no evidence of reciprocal monophyly for Pacific and NW Atlantic M. trossulus, limited gene flow between ocean basins has led to the divergence of unique sequence clades within each ocean basin. In contrast,
relative genetic homogeneity indicates high levels of gene flow within each basin. Coalescence-based analysis of the F-LUR
sequences suggests that M. trossulus recolonized the NW Atlantic from the northeast Pacific subsequent to a demographic expansion in the Pacific that occurred
~96,000 years before present (ybp). Estimates of timing of divergence for Pacific and NW Atlantic populations and the time
since expansion among NW Atlantic sequence clades indicate that M. trossulus arrived in the NW Atlantic more recently, between 20,000 and 46,000 ybp. Given that these estimates overlap with the dates
of peak ice in the NW Atlantic during the last glacial maximum (LGM, ~18,000–21,000 ybp), we suggest that colonization of
the NW Atlantic by M. trossulus occurred during, but more likely just subsequent to, the LGM and was followed by rapid temporal and spatial expansion in
the region. 相似文献

The pelagic copepod Calanus pacificus ranges nearly continuously across temperate-boreal regions of the North Pacific Ocean and is currently divided into three
subspecies—C. pacificus oceanicus, C. pacificus californicus, C. pacificus pacificus—based on subtle morphological differences and geographic location. The relation between geography and genetic differentiation
was examined for 398 C. pacificus individuals sampled from six widely distributed locations across the North Pacific, including an open ocean site and coastal
sites on both sides of the North Pacific basin. For each individual copepod, the DNA sequence was determined for a 421-bp
region of the mitochondrial coxI gene (mtCOI). A total of sixty-three different mtCOI sequences, or haplotypes, were detected,
with a sequence divergence between haplotypes of 0.2–3.1%. The number and distribution of haplotypes varied with sampling
location; 12 haplotypes were distributed across multiple sampling locations, and 51 occurred at only one location. Five genetically
distinct populations were detected based on F
ST values. Haplotype minimum spanning networks, nucleotide divergence and F
ST values indicated that individuals from coastal sites in the North Pacific Ocean were more closely related to each other than
to individuals from the open ocean site at Station P. These results provide genetic support for the designation of two subspecies—a
coastal subspecies that consists of what is currently referred to as C. p. pacificus and C. p. californicus and an open ocean subspecies C. p. oceanicus. This work also indicates that planktonic copepods with potentially high dispersal capacity can develop genetically structured
populations in the absence of obvious geographic barriers between proximate locales within an ocean basin. 相似文献
