Phylogenetic analysis of social behavior evolution in [Zetoborinae + Blaberinae + Gyninae + Diplopterinae] cockroaches: an update with the study of endemic radiations from the Atlantic forest

چکیده
We updated the phylogenetic analysis of the evolution of habitat choice and social habits in the cockroach group of [Zetoborinae + Blaberinae + Gyninae + Diplopterinae] (Dictyoptera: Blaberidae) elaborated by Grandcolas (1998b). The original phylogenetic matrix was updated with new data obtained in the Brazilian Atlantic forest for the genera Parasphaeria and Zetobora (Zetoborinae), Monastria, Petasodes (Blaberinae) and Pycnoscelus (Pycnoscelinae) (one outgroup). These new data did not change the tree topology but showed that the fauna of the Atlantic forest has a complex evolutionary origin with several different radiations, one of which is local, and behavioral convergences or originalities.

Evaluation of genetic relationship between 15 bamboo species of North-East India based on ISSR marker analysis
The classification of bamboos based on floral morphology and reproductive characters is very hard due to erratic flowering behavior and unusually long reproductive cycle. The application of reliable and effective DNA molecular markers is highly essential to address this problem. In the present investigation, inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers were employed to study phylogenetic relati...

In this study, mitochondrial DNA analysis using 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) was performed to investigate the phylogeny relationship of Trichiurus lepturus in the Persian Gulf compared to the other investigated area. The amplification of 16S rDNA resulted in a product of 600 bp in all samples. The results showed that the isolated strain belongs to T. lepturus showing 42 divergence sites among the s...

This is the first study on phylogenetic relationships in the genus Artemia Leach, 1819 using the pattern and sequence of secondary structures of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1). Significant intraspecific variation in the secondary structure of ITS1 rRNA was found in Artemia tibetiana. In the phylogenetic tree based on joined primary and secondary structure sequences, Artemia urmiana and pa...
