Abstract
Hybridization and introgression are very common among freshwater fishes due to the dynamic nature of hydrological landscapes. Cyclic patterns of allopatry and secondary contact provide numerous opportunities for interspecific gene flow, which can lead to discordant paths of evolution for mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. Here, we used double digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRADseq) to obtain a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) dataset comprehensive for allThymallus (Salmonidae)species to infer phylogenetic relationships and evaluate potential recent and historical gene flow among species. The newly obtained nuclear phylogeny was largely concordant with a previously published mitogenome-based topology but revealed a few cyto-nuclear discordances. These incongruencies primarily involved the placement of internal nodes rather than the resolution of species, except for one European species where anthropogenic stock transfers are thought to be responsible for the observed pattern. The analysis of four contact zones where multiple species are found revealed a few cases of mitochondrial capture and limited signals of nuclear introgression. Interestingly, the mechanisms restricting interspecific gene flow might be distinct; while in zones of secondary contact, small-scale physical habitat separation appeared as a limiting factor, biologically based reinforcement mechanisms are presumed to be operative in areas where species presumably evolved in sympatry. Signals of historical introgression were largely congruent with the routes of species dispersal previously inferred from mitogenome data. Overall, the ddRADseq dataset provided a robust phylogenetic reconstruction of the genus Thymallus including new insights into historical hybridization and introgression, opening up new questions concerning their evolutionary history.

[PMID: 34950231 PMCID: PMC8674896 DOI: 10.1111/eva.13314] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2021] [Revised: 09/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Hybrid zones between diverged lineages offer a unique opportunity to study evolutionary processes related to speciation. Natural and anthropogenic hybridization in the black basses (Micropterus spp.) is well documented, including an extensive intergrade zone between the widespread northern Largemouth Bass (M. salmoides) and the Florida Bass (M. floridanus). Phenotypic surveys have identified an estuarine population of Largemouth Bass (M. salmoides) in the Mobile-Tensaw Delta, with larger relative weight and smaller adult size compared to inland populations, suggesting a potential third lineage of largemouth bass. To determine the evolutionary relationships among these Mobile Delta bass populations, M. salmoides and M. floridanus, putative pure and intergrade populations of all three groups were sampled across the eastern United States. Phylogenetic analyses of 8582 nuclear SNPs derived from genotype-by-sequencing and the ND2 mitochondrial gene determined that Delta bass populations stem from a recently diverged lineage of Largemouth Bass. Using a novel quantitative pipeline, a panel of 73 diagnostic SNPs was developed for the three lineages, evaluated for accuracy, and then used to screen 881 samples from 52 sites for genetic integrity and hybridization on the Agena MassARRAY platform. These results strongly support a redrawing of native ranges for both the intergrade zone and M. floridanus, which has significant implications for current fisheries management. Furthermore, Delta bass ancestry was shown to contribute significantly to the previously described intergrade zone between northern Largemouth Bass and Florida Bass, suggesting a more complex pattern of secondary contact and introgression among these diverged Micropterus lineages.
