Exploring the Host Specificity and Diversity of Haemogregarines in the Canary Islands Beatriz Tomé1,2*, Ana Pereira1,2, Fátima Jorge3, Miguel A
Tomé et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:190 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-2760-5 RESEARCH Open Access Along for the ride or missing it altogether: exploring the host specificity and diversity of haemogregarines in the Canary Islands Beatriz Tomé1,2*, Ana Pereira1,2, Fátima Jorge3, Miguel A. Carretero1, D. James Harris1 and Ana Perera1 Abstract Background: Host-parasite relationships are expected to be strongly shaped by host specificity, a crucial factor in parasite adaptability and diversification. Because whole host communities have to be considered to assess host specificity, oceanic islands are ideal study systems given their simplified biotic assemblages. Previous studies on insular parasites suggest host range broadening during colonization. Here, we investigate the association between one parasite group (haemogregarines) and multiple sympatric hosts (of three lizard genera: Gallotia, Chalcides and Tarentola) in the Canary Islands. Given haemogregarine characteristics and insular conditions, we hypothesized low host specificity and/or occurrence of host-switching events. Methods: A total of 825 samples were collected from the three host taxa inhabiting the seven main islands of the Canarian Archipelago, including locations where the different lizards occurred in sympatry. Blood slides were screened to assess prevalence and parasitaemia, while parasite genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships were inferred from 18S rRNA gene sequences. Results: Infection levels and diversity of haplotypes varied geographically and across host groups. Infections were found in all species of Gallotia across the seven islands, in Tarentola from Tenerife, La Gomera and La Palma, and in Chalcides from Tenerife, La Gomera and El Hierro. Gallotia lizards presented the highest parasite prevalence, parasitaemia and diversity (seven haplotypes), while the other two host groups (Chalcides and Tarentola) harbored one haplotype each, with low prevalence and parasitaemia levels, and very restricted geographical ranges. -

Spain Abstract Aboveground litterfall from Pyrenean oak (Quercus pyrenaica Willd. a semi-deciduous species), mixed Pyrenean oak-pine and pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) forest stands was surveyed in two sites in a Mediterranean mountain area during a period of 36 and 29 months, respectively. Separation in different litterfall fractions was performed, and C content of each fraction was measured to calculate the C flux to the soil due to litterfall. Our results showed that litterfall input was higher in pine stands than in Pyrenean oak stands (1.8-2.4 Mg C ha–1 year–1 at pine plots and 0.9-1.4 Mg C ha–1 year–1 at oak plots) and mixed plots showed intermediate values. Needles or leaves contributed about 50% to total litterfall, underpinning the importance of the rest of materials in the soil C input. -

A Phylogenetic History of the Tenerife Skink Chalcides Viridanus: a Multi-Locus Coalescent Approach
A Phylogenetic History of the Tenerife Skink Chalcides viridanus: A multi-locus Coalescent Approach Matthew Woods A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Masters of Philosophy. March 2015 Abstract Previous studies on the Tenerife skink Chalcides viridanus found clear links between observed within-island cladogenesis and the geological history of the island. Since these studies there have been many advances in conceptual, numerical and methodological approaches in phylogenetic analyses. This study aims to revisit the phylogeography of the Tenerife skink, using more current *BEAST analysis techniques, and attempt to resolve some unanswered questions about population history of this species. Specifically, using previously unused nuclear gene markers to obtain a more robust phylogeographical history of the species, using new techniques to estimate whether any historic changes in population size can be linked to known geological events and whether there is enough evidence to reclassify any discovered genetic clades as distinct species. A multi-locus approach was undertaken, using more informative mtDNA gene fragments (Cyt- b & ND1 & 2, totalling 1566bp) as well as the sequencing of 5 nuclear loci (PRLR-555bp, Rag- 1-761bp, RELN-583bp, EXPH-796bp and SELT-414bp). These sequences were combined with the latest Bayesian methods to estimate divergence times, historical changes in population structure and infer species boundaries. Results from the BAPS and *BEAST analyses identified three main population groups within the island, the geographical distribution of two of which were restricted to the areas representing the ancient precursor islands Teno & Anaga in the North West and North East of Tenerife, respectively. -

Growth Patterns in Barbary Partridges Alectoris Barbara Originated from Low- and High Elevations in West Central Morocco

In this regard, the purpose of the present study was to investigate posthatching growth of body weight and seven morphometric parameters in Barbary partridges Alectoris barbara originated from low- and high elevations, and raised in common captive environment. Gompertz model presents the best fit to the growth curves for body weight, wing, leg and sternum. Mean body weight at hatching was similar between elevations and was relatively higher, compared to that in other studied perdicine species. Adult Barbary partridges from high and low elevations maintained the difference in body weight when raised in common captive envi- ronment. This suggests a role of genetic selection and / or maternal effects between the two studied populations. However, all the other growth parameters of morphological traits were similar between captive birds originated from the two elevations. This lack of difference could be related to a potential phenotypic plasticity with a convergence in common captive environment.

Evolution and Biogeography of the Genus Tarentola (Sauria: Gekkonidae) in the Canary Islands, Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences

Abstract Sequences from fragments of the 12s ribosomal RNA and cytochrome b mito- chondrial genes were used to analyze phylogenetic relationships among geckos of genus Turentolu from the Canary Islands. A surprisingly high level of within island differentiation was found in T. delulundii in Tenerife and T. boettgeri in Gran Canaria. Molecular differentiation between populations of T. ungustimentulis on Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, and between Moroccan and Iberian Peninsula T. muuritunicu, also indicate that at least two subspecies should be recognized within each of them. Phylogenetic relationships among these species reveals a higher level of differentiation and a more complex colonization pattern than those found for the endemic genus Gullotiu. Lack of evidence for the presence of T. boettgeri bischoffi on the island of Madeira does not seem to support the origin of T. delulundii, T. gomerensis and the canarian subspecies of T, boettgeri from this island, whereas molecular data confirms that T. ungustimentulis is a sister species of the continental T. -

Comparative Cytogenetics 12(2): 171–199. https://doi.org/10.3897/ CompCytogen.v12i2.23743 Abstract The development of avian cytogenetics is significantly behind that of mammals. In fact, since the advent of cytogenetic techniques, fewer than 1500 karyotypes have been established. The Barbary partridge Alec- toris barbara Bonnaterre, 1790 is a bird of economic interest but its genome has not been studied so far. This species is endemic to North Africa and globally declining. The Chukar partridge Alectoris chukar Gray, 1830 is an introduced species which shares the same habitat area as the Barbary partridge and so there could be introgressive hybridisation.
