The Evolution of the Placenta Drives a Shift in Sexual Selection in Livebearing Fish
LETTER doi:10.1038/nature13451 The evolution of the placenta drives a shift in sexual selection in livebearing fish B. J. A. Pollux1,2, R. W. Meredith1,3, M. S. Springer1, T. Garland1 & D. N. Reznick1 The evolution of the placenta from a non-placental ancestor causes a species produce large, ‘costly’ (that is, fully provisioned) eggs5,6, gaining shift of maternal investment from pre- to post-fertilization, creating most reproductive benefits by carefully selecting suitable mates based a venue for parent–offspring conflicts during pregnancy1–4. Theory on phenotype or behaviour2. These females, however, run the risk of mat- predicts that the rise of these conflicts should drive a shift from a ing with genetically inferior (for example, closely related or dishonestly reliance on pre-copulatory female mate choice to polyandry in conjunc- signalling) males, because genetically incompatible males are generally tion with post-zygotic mechanisms of sexual selection2. This hypoth- not discernable at the phenotypic level10. Placental females may reduce esis has not yet been empirically tested. Here we apply comparative these risks by producing tiny, inexpensive eggs and creating large mixed- methods to test a key prediction of this hypothesis, which is that the paternity litters by mating with multiple males. They may then rely on evolution of placentation is associated with reduced pre-copulatory the expression of the paternal genomes to induce differential patterns of female mate choice. We exploit a unique quality of the livebearing fish post-zygotic maternal investment among the embryos and, in extreme family Poeciliidae: placentas have repeatedly evolved or been lost, cases, divert resources from genetically defective (incompatible) to viable creating diversity among closely related lineages in the presence or embryos1–4,6,11. -

These taxa survive as small, isolated populations in remote streams and springs and evolved to mtDNA tolerate extreme conditions of high temperature and low dissolved oxygen. Both species have experienced severe Conservation population declines over the last 50–60 years that led to some subspecies being categorized with protected status Pahrump poolfish under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. Here we report the first sequencing of the complete mitochondrial DNA White River springfish Endangered species genomes for both E. l. latos and the moapae subspecies of C. baileyi. Complete mitogenomes of 16,546 bp Fish nucleotides were obtained from two E. l. latos individuals collected from introduced populations at Spring Desert Mountain Ranch State Park and Shoshone Ponds Natural Area, Nevada, USA, while a single mitogenome of 16,537 bp was sequenced for C. -

(January 2018). 1 1 Native Range and Status in the United States Native Range From Fuller (2018): “This species is confined to a very small area, the Río Ameca basin, on the Pacific Slope of western Mexico (Miller and Fitzsimons 1971).” From Goodeid Working Group (2018): “This species comes from the Pacific Slope and inhabits the Río Ameca and its tributary, the Río Teuchitlán in Jalisco. More habitats in the ichthyological [sic] closely connected Sayula valley have been detected quite recently.” Status in the United States From Fuller (2018): “Reported from Nevada. Records are more than 25 years old and the current status is not known to us. One individual was taken in November 1981 (museum specimen) and another in August 1983 from Rodgers Spring, Nevada (Courtenay and Deacon 1983, Deacon and Williams 1984). Others were seen and not collected (Courtenay, personal communication).” From Goodeid Working Group (2018): “Miller reported, that on 6 May 1982, this species was collected in Roger's Spring, Clark County, Nevada, (pers. comm. to Miller by P.J. Unmack) where it is now extirpated. It had been exposed there with several other exotic species (Deacon [and Williams] 1984).” From FAO (2018): “Status of the introduced species in the wild: Probably not established.” From Froese and Pauly (2018): “Raised commercially in Florida, U.S.A.” Means of Introductions in the United States From Fuller (2018): “Probably an aquarium release.” Remarks From Fuller (2018): “Synonyms and Other Names: butterfly goodeid.” 2 From Goodeid Working Group (2018): “Some hybridisation attempts have been undertaken with the Butterfly Splitfin to solve its relationship. -

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The subfamily Goodeinae (Goodeidae) is one of the most representative and well-studied group of fishes from central Mexico, with around 18 genera and 40 species. Recent phylogenetic studies have documented a high degree of genetic diversity and divergences among populations, suggesting that the diversity of the group may be underestimated. The spe- cies Xenotoca eiseni has had several taxonomic changes since its description. Xenotoca eiseni is considered a widespread species along the Central Pacific Coastal drainages of Mexico, inhabiting six independent drainages. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies suggest that X. eiseni is a species complex, represented by at least three independent evolutionary lineages. We carried out a meristic and morphometric study in order to evaluate the morphological differences among these genetically divergent populations and describe two new species. The new species of goodeines, Xenotoca doadrioi and X. lyonsi, are described from the Etzatlan endorheic drainage and upper Coahuayana basin respectively. -

Articles Extinction Rates in North American Freshwater Fishes, 1900–2010 NOEL M. BURKHEAD Widespread evidence shows that the modern rates of extinction in many plants and animals exceed background rates in the fossil record. In the present article, I investigate this issue with regard to North American freshwater fishes. From 1898 to 2006, 57 taxa became extinct, and three distinct populations were extirpated from the continent. Since 1989, the numbers of extinct North American fishes have increased by 25%. From the end of the nineteenth century to the present, modern extinctions varied by decade but significantly increased after 1950 (post-1950s mean = 7.5 extinct taxa per decade). -

From July 2007 to May 2008 bimonthly samplings were carried out and, using a bait well net, 407 individuals were collected (245 females and 162 males). Overall, the sex ratio between females/males was 1.51:1 ( P <0.05). The age of first maturation in the females was 33 mm of standard length. The spawning period occurred in July and accounted for the highest values in the gonadosomatic index. -

CARL L. I-IUHBS ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY JANUARY 18, 1924 ADVERTISEMENT The publicatiolls of the Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan, consist of two series-tlie Occasional Papers and the Miscellaneous Publi- catioils. Both series were foullded by Dr. Bryant Tnialker, Mr. Bradshatv I-I. Swales and Dr. W. Mr. Newcomb. The Occasional Papers, publication of which was begun in 1913, jerve as a medium fpr the publication of brief oricinal papers based principally upon the collectioils ill the Museum. The papers are issued separately to libraries and specialists, and, when a sufficient number of pages have been printed to lnalce a volume, a title page, index, and table of contents are sup- plied to libraries and individuals on the mailing list for the entire series. The Miscellaneous Publications include papers on field and museum technique, monographic studies and other papers not within the scope of the Occasional Papers. The papers are published separately, and, as it is not intended that they shall be grouped into volumes, each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents. ALEXANDEKG.
