Although Pampus minor has been classified as a new species, it still remains controversial. Was used a DNA barcoding technique based on homologous sequence analysis of the16S and CO1 genes to clarify the confusion over the identification of this species. Among 12 individuals whose genetic distance was 0.002, two haplotypes were found. According to the 16S sequences, the genetic distances ranged from 0.121 to 0.133 between P. minor and other Pampus species. Although the same the genetic distance between the two P minor haplotypes was generated using CO1 sequences, the haplotype of Pm22-23, Pm28, and Pm32-33 was the same as that of Pci EF607462 and EF607466, while the haplotype of Pm24-27 and Pm29-31 was the same as that of Pci EF607461 and EF607463-65. In addition, the genetic distance ranged only from 0.002 to 0.005 between P minor and Pa EF607460 and EF607458. Apart from this, the interspecies genetic distances varied from 0.135 to 0.143 between P minor and other t'ampus species according to the C01 sequences. Phylogenetic trees, using combined 16S and CO1 data, strongly support the viewpoint that all the P. minor individuals form one clade that is in a sister position to Pampus sp. individuals (EU357803, FJ434342-FJ434343, and FJ652423-FJ652427).
Perciformes,the largest order of vertebrates with 20 suborders,is the most diverse fish order that dominates vertebrate ocean life.The complete mitochondrial control region(CR) of Trichiurus japonicus(Trichiuridae,Scombroidei) and Pampus sp.(Stromateidae,Stromateoidei) were amplified and sequenced.Together with data from GenBank,the tandem repeats in the mitochondrial CR from 48 species,which covered nine suborders of Perciformes,are reported in this study.The tandem repeats tend to be long in the suborder Percoidei and Stromateoidei.The identical repeats in 21 species of Cichlidae suggest a common origin and have existed before species divergence.Larimichthys crocea shows tandem repeats instead of the typical structure of the central conserved sequence blocks,which was first reported in Perciformes and vertebrates.This might have resulted from interruption of the polymerase activity during the H-strand synthesis.The four broader patterns presented here for the tandem repeats,including those in both the 5' and 3' ends,only in the either 5' or 3' end,and in the central conserved domain of the control region,will be useful for understanding the evolution of species.
测定三疣梭子蟹(Portunus trituberculatus)9个个体COI基因部分序列467 bp,7个个体16 S rRNA基因部分序列519 bp,同时测定样品蟹1个个体COI基因部分序列468 bp。结合GenBank中收集的梭子蟹科COI,16 S rRNA两个基因所有同源序列信息,使用Kimura双参数模型采用邻接法(NJ)、最大简约法(MP)构建梭子蟹科分子系统发育树;将样品蟹测得的COI基因序列和已知属的其他蟹同源序列(429 bp)进行比对分析。结果分析表明:两个基因片段序列平均碱基AT数量分数都明显高于GC数量分数;梭子蟹属与美青蟹属关系最近,属应为区别于梭子蟹属、美青蟹属、青蟹属的另一支,支持属应划分在短桨蟹亚科的观点;根据遗传距离以及转换/颠换(R)值分析,判定出样品为锐齿。本试验运用线粒体基因片段探讨了梭子蟹类的系统发育关系以及样品蟹的种类鉴定,为线粒体基因片段在梭子蟹的物种鉴定和系统发育重建中的开发和利用提供重要参考。
