  • The Phylogeny of Oncorhynchus (Euteleostei: Salmonidae) Based on Behavioral and Life History Characters
    Copeia, 2007(3), pp. 520–533 The Phylogeny of Oncorhynchus (Euteleostei: Salmonidae) Based on Behavioral and Life History Characters MANU ESTEVE AND DEBORAH A. MCLENNAN There is no consensus between morphological and molecular data concerning the relationships within the Pacific basin salmon and trout clade Oncorhynchus. In this paper we add another source of characters to the discussion. Phylogenetic analysis of 39 behavioral and life history traits produced one tree structured (O. clarki (O. mykiss (O. masou (O. kisutch (O. tshawytscha (O. nerka (O. keta, O. gorbuscha))))))). This topology is congruent with the phylogeny based upon Bayesian analysis of all available nuclear and mitochondrial gene sequences, with the exception of two nodes: behavior supports the morphological data in breaking the sister-group relationship between O. mykiss and O. clarki, and between O. kisutch and O. tshawytscha. The behavioral traits agreed with molecular rather than morphological data in placing O. keta as the sister-group of O. gorbuscha. The behavioral traits also resolve the molecular-based ambiguity concerning the placement of O. masou, placing it as sister to the rest of the Pacific basin salmon. Behavioral plus morphological data placed Salmo, not Salvelinus, as more closely related to Oncorhynchus, but that placement was only weakly supported and awaits collection of missing data from enigmatic species such as the lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush. Overall, the phenotypic characters helped resolve ambiguities that may have been created by molecular introgression, while the molecular traits helped resolve ambiguities introduced by phenotypic homoplasy. It seems reasonable therefore, that systematists can best respond to the escalating biodiversity crisis by forming research groups to gather behavioral and ecological information while specimens are being collected for morphological and molecular analysis.

Danube Research-Consulting S.R.L., 89bis Câmpia Libertății Street, 825200, Isaccea, Romania ‡The first two authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract Huchen or Danube salmon (Hucho hucho, Linnaeus, 1758) is an economically and ecologically valuable salmonid species, among the most endangered fish species inhabiting the Danube basin. Consequently, appropriate conservation measures are required to prevent the species extinction. Although H. hucho is a poorly studied species, there are several studies on other salmonid species regarding fast growth markers. Following these studies, the main purpose of the current study was to determine growth-related SNPs in myostatin gene in H. hucho. Therefore, we analysed 20 aquaculture individuals of same age separated in two groups according length and weight, by sequencing the amplification product of SaMSTNb23 and SaMSTNb33 primers pairs. We also statistically analysed the differences in the development of individuals over time regarding total length, weight and head length. Significantly variations were observed (p < 0.001) for the measured traits in both groups. Regarding the genetic analysis, we observed nine SNPs in the mstn gene structure. Considering these results, it appears that the analysed markers are not appropriate for genetic analysis of growth traits in H.
