Insights into the phylogeny of the ciliate of class Colpodea based on multigene data
In the class Colpodea, there are many unresolved evolutionary relationships among taxa. Here, we report 30 new sequences including SSU‐rRNA, ITS1‐5.8S‐ ITS2 rRNA, and the mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal RNA (mtSSU‐rRNA) genes of five colpodeans, and conduct phylogenetic analyses based on each...

Sumario: | In the class Colpodea, there are many unresolved evolutionary relationships among taxa. Here, we report 30 new sequences including SSU‐rRNA, ITS1‐5.8S‐ ITS2 rRNA, and the mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal RNA (mtSSU‐rRNA) genes of five colpodeans, and conduct phylogenetic analyses based on each individual gene and a two‐gene concatenated dataset. For the first time, multi‐genes were used to analyze phylogenetic relationships in the class Colpodea. The main findings are: (1) SSU‐rRNA, ITS1‐5.8S‐ ITS2 rRNA, and mtSSU‐rRNA gene sequences of C. reniformis and C. grandis are provided for the first time, and these two species group into the clade including C. inflata, C. lucida, C. cucullus, and C. henneguyi; (2) clustering pattern and morphological similarity indicate that Bresslauides discoideus has a close relation with Colpodidae spp.; (3) Emarginatophrya genus diagnosis is improved to be ‘Hausmanniellidae with sharply shortened and isometric leftmost 1‐4 ciliary rows’ and Colpoda elliotti is transferred to Emarginatophrya; (4) the genus Colpoda is still non‐monophyletic with the addition of 10 populations from five Colpoda species sequences, but there are only two Colpoda groups left based on the present work: Group I comprises C. inflata, C. lucida, C. cucullus, C. henneguyi, C. reniformis, and C. grandis, Group II comprises C. maupasi and C. ecaudata, and the presence of diagonal grooves and the way the vestibular opens might be the two key features that differentiates Colpoda species groups; (5) a close molecular relationship, and highly similar merotelokinetal mode, somatic ciliary pattern, and basic organization of the oral apparatus with P. steinii suggests Bromeliothrix metopoides should be temporarily assigned to Colpodidae. |
