Ancient versus reticulate origin of a hemiclonal lineage.
Crossing experiments revealed that a diploid hybridogenetic fish (genus Poeciliopsis) from the Río Mocorito (Sinaloa, Mexico) is trihybrid. Its haploid maternal genome is inherited clonally (i.e., hemiclonally), and it expresses a mixture of morphological traits found in the closely related species P. monacha and P. viriosa. Its haploid paternal genome is replaced in each generation by mating w...
متن کاملRecent Reticulate Evolution in the Ecologically Dominant Lineage of Coccolithophores
The coccolithophore family Noëlaerhabdaceae contains a number of taxa that are very abundant in modern oceans, including the cosmopolitan bloom-forming Emiliania huxleyi. Introgressive hybridization has been suggested to account for incongruences between nuclear, mitochondrial and plastidial phylogenies of morphospecies within this lineage, but the number of species cultured to date remains rat...
متن کاملInterspecific Plastome Recombination Reflects Ancient Reticulate Evolution in Picea (Pinaceae)
Plastid sequences are a cornerstone in plant systematic studies and key aspects of their evolution, such as uniparental inheritance and absent recombination, are often treated as axioms. While exceptions to these assumptions can profoundly influence evolutionary inference, detecting them can require extensive sampling, abundant sequence data, and detailed testing. Using advancements in high-thr...
متن کاملCholera—Modern Pandemic Disease of Ancient Lineage
Cholera has affected humans for at least a millennium and persists as a major cause of illness and death worldwide, with recent epidemics in Zimbabwe (2008-2009) and Haiti (2010). Clinically, evidence exists of increasing severity of disease linked with emergence of atypical Vibrio cholerae organisms that have incorporated genetic material from classical biotype strains into an El Tor biotype b...
متن کاملThe ancient origin of the complement system.
The complement system has been thought to originate exclusively in the deuterostomes. Here, we show that the central complement components already existed in the primitive protostome lineage. A functional homolog of vertebrate complement 3, CrC3, has been isolated from a 'living fossil', the horseshoe crab (Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda). CrC3 resembles human C3 and shows closest homology to C3 ...
