Photo by Ellen Schagerström Summary The Baltic Sea is considered an ecological marginal environment, where both marine and freshwater species struggle to adapt to its ever changing conditions. Fucus vesiculosus (bladderwrack) is commonly seen as the foundation species in the Baltic Sea, as it is the only large perennial macroalgae, forming vast belts down to a depth of about 10 meters. The salinity gradient results in an increasing salinity stress for all marine organisms. This is commonly seen in many species as a reduction in size. What was previously described as a low salinity induced dwarf morph of F. vesiculosus was recently proved to be a separate species, when genetic tools were used. This new species, Fucus radicans (narrow wrack) might be the first endemic species to the Baltic Sea, having separated from its mother species F. vesiculosus as recent as 400 years ago. Fucus radicans is only found in the Bothnian Sea and around the Estonian island Saaremaa. The Swedish/Finnish populations have a surprisingly high level of clonality.

  • Evolutionary Shifts in Fruit Dispersal Syndromes in Apiaceae Tribe Scandiceae
    Plant Systematics and Evolution (2019) 305:401–414 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00606-019-01579-1 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Evolutionary shifts in fruit dispersal syndromes in Apiaceae tribe Scandiceae Aneta Wojewódzka1,2 · Jakub Baczyński1 · Łukasz Banasiak1 · Stephen R. Downie3 · Agnieszka Czarnocka‑Cieciura1 · Michał Gierek1 · Kamil Frankiewicz1 · Krzysztof Spalik1 Received: 17 November 2018 / Accepted: 2 April 2019 / Published online: 2 May 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Apiaceae tribe Scandiceae includes species with diverse fruits that depending upon their morphology are dispersed by gravity, carried away by wind, or transported attached to animal fur or feathers. This diversity is particularly evident in Scandiceae subtribe Daucinae, a group encompassing species with wings or spines developing on fruit secondary ribs. In this paper, we explore fruit evolution in 86 representatives of Scandiceae and outgroups to assess adaptive shifts related to the evolutionary switch between anemochory and epizoochory and to identify possible dispersal syndromes, i.e., patterns of covariation of morphological and life-history traits that are associated with a particular vector. We also assess the phylogenetic signal in fruit traits. Principal component analysis of 16 quantitative fruit characters and of plant height did not clearly separate spe- cies having diferent dispersal strategies as estimated based on fruit appendages. Only presumed anemochory was weakly associated with plant height and the fattening of mericarps with their accompanying anatomical changes. We conclude that in Scandiceae, there are no distinct dispersal syndromes, but a continuum of fruit morphologies relying on diferent dispersal vectors. Phylogenetic mapping of ten discrete fruit characters on trees inferred by nrDNA ITS and cpDNA sequence data revealed that all are homoplastic and of limited use for the delimitation of genera.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada http://www.library.ubc.ca/spcoll/thesauth.html ABSTRACT Dioecy, the breeding system with male and female function on separate individuals, may affect the ability of a lineage to avoid extinction or speciate. Dioecy is a rare breeding system among the angiosperms (approximately 6% of all flowering plants) while hermaphroditism (having male and female function present within each flower) is predominant. Dioecious angiosperms may be rare because the transitions to dioecy have been recent or because dioecious angiosperms experience decreased diversification rates (speciation minus extinction) compared to plants with other breeding systems.

Pearson1 Abstract Background: Molecular markers are revealing a much more diverse and evolutionarily complex picture of marine biodiversity than previously anticipated. Cryptic and/or endemic marine species are continually being found throughout the world oceans, predominantly in inconspicuous tropical groups but also in larger, canopy-forming taxa from well studied temperate regions. Interspecific hybridization has also been found to be prevalent in many marine groups, for instance within dense congeneric assemblages, with introgressive gene-flow being the most common outcome. Here, using a congeneric phylogeographic approach, we investigated two monotypic and geographically complementary sister genera of north-east Pacific intertidal seaweeds (Hesperophycus and Pelvetiopsis), for which preliminary molecular tests revealed unexpected conflicts consistent with unrecognized cryptic diversity and hybridization. Results: The three recovered mtDNA clades did not match a priori species delimitations.

  • BONUS BAMBI Final Report
    BONUS BAMBI PROJECT (1.1.2014 to 31.12.2017) The final publishable summary report February 28th 2018 Illustration: J Lokrantz/Azote Project website: www.bambi.gu.se BONUS BAMBI project has received funding from BONUS (Art 185), funded jointly by the EU and the national funding agencies Swedish research agency Formas, Estonian Research Council ETAg, German Forschungszentrum Jülich Beteiligungsgesellschaft, and the Academy of Finland. Project outline of goals and results envisaged at the beginning of the project cycle A rapidly warming Baltic Sea that will also be impacted by lower salinities than today will put a heavy pressure on all species with marine origin currently living in the Baltic Sea. Already today, the Baltic Sea is extremely species poor with roughly only 10 percent of the number of species found in the North Sea. The overall goal of BONUS BAMBI was to generate new knowledge on genetic biodiversity of Baltic Sea populations, in order to understand how the ongoing changes in temperature and salinity will affect key marine species of the Baltic Sea. The project also aimed to assess the degree of management that is currently directed towards genetic diversity. In addition, the goal was to communicate new insights on genetic biodiversity to Baltic Sea managers and policy-makers. Work carried out in the project A main issue has been to identify the population structures of four key-species; bladder wrack Fucus vesiculosus, narrow wrack Fucus radicans, Baltic isopod Idotea balthica and three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus. For three of the species this involved the development of new powerful genetic markers, so called RAD markers.

  • Reciprocal Transplants Support a Plasticity-First Scenario During
    Johansson et al. BMC Ecol (2017) 17:14 DOI 10.1186/s12898-017-0124-1 BMC Ecology RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Reciprocal transplants support a plasticity‑frst scenario during colonisation of a large hyposaline basin by a marine macro alga Daniel Johansson1,2, Ricardo T. Pereyra1,2, Marina Rafajlović2,3 and Kerstin Johannesson1,2* Abstract Background: Establishing populations in ecologically marginal habitats may require substantial phenotypic changes that come about through phenotypic plasticity, local adaptation, or both. West-Eberhard’s “plasticity-frst” model suggests that plasticity allows for rapid colonisation of a new environment, followed by directional selection that develops local adaptation. Two predictions from this model are that (i) individuals of the original population have high enough plasticity to survive and reproduce in the marginal environment, and (ii) individuals of the marginal popula- tion show evidence of local adaptation. Individuals of the macroalga Fucus vesiculosus from the North Sea colonised the hyposaline ( 2–3‰) Baltic Sea less than 8000 years ago. The colonisation involved a switch from fully sexual to facultative asexual≥ recruitment with release of adventitious branches that grow rhizoids and attach to the substra- tum. To test the predictions from the plasticity-frst model we reciprocally transplanted F. vesiculosus from the original population (ambient salinity 24‰) and from the marginal population inside the Baltic Sea (ambient salinity 4‰). We also transplanted individuals of the Baltic endemic sister species F. radicans from 4 to 24‰. We assessed the degree of plasticity and local adaptation in growth and reproductive traits after 6 months by comparing the performance of individuals in 4 and 24‰.

This thesis centers on the evolution of the two brown algae Fucus radicans and Fucus vesiculosus in the Baltic Sea, where Fucus radicans very recently diverged from F. vesiculosus, and where both species have aquired the unique character of asexual recruitment forming clones. Speciation is one of the most fundamental processes in biology, yet poorly understod. It is generally argued to build on a slow accumulation of differences between populations living in allopatry, but the formation of F. radicans most likely occurred without geographic separation and provides a unique opportunity to study the differentiation and evolution of a new species following a recent, rapid and sympatric speciation event. We investigated the spatial patterns of clonality in F. radicans, to understand how clones affect the potential for sexual reproduction, recombination and local adaptation. Results showed that rare sexual events, occasional long-distance migration and somatic mutations of large clones contribute new genotypic variation in populations of F. radicans. We further analysed the genetic structure of Fucus from areas not earlier investigated along the Finnish and Russian coasts of the Baltic Sea, comparing the results with previous data from Bothnian Sea and Estonia.
