Rapid increases in flow velocity result in fish avoiding unstable habitats and seeking refuge to reduce energy expenditure. To understand fish movements and the habitat use of native Iberian cyprinids in a high-gradient peaking river, 77 individuals were PIT tagged downstream of Bragado SHP in the North of Portugal. Tagged fish species included Pseudochondrostoma duriense and Squalius carolitertii. Fish positions were recorded manually on two different occasions: during hydropeaking events (HP) and without hydropeaking events (NHP). From the 77 tagged fish, we were able to record habitat use for 33 individuals (20 P. duriense and 13 S.

This area has also been subjected to the influence of changing climate conditions since the Middle-Upper Pliocene when seasonal weather patterns were established. Consequently, the ichthyofauna of southern Iberia is an interesting model system for analyzing the influence of Cenozoic tectonic and climatic events on its evolutionary history. The cyprinids Squalius malacitanus and Squalius pyrenaicus are allopatrically distributed in southern Iberia and their evolutionary history may have been defined by Cenozoic tectonic and climatic events. We analyzed MT-CYB (510 specimens) and RAG1 (140 specimens) genes of both species to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships and to estimate divergence times and ancestral distribution ranges of the species and their populations.

Here, we focused on four species of the 16 genus Squalius in Portuguese rivers: S. carolitertii, S. pyrenaicus, S. aradensis and S. 17 torgalensis. Previous studies based on eight nuclear and mitochondrial markers 18 revealed incongruent patterns, with nuclear loci suggesting that S.

  • Dynamics of Rex3 in the Genomes of Endangered Iberian Leuciscinae (Teleostei, Cyprinidae) and Their Natural Hybrids Carla Sofia A
    Pereira et al. Molecular Cytogenetics (2015) 8:81 DOI 10.1186/s13039-015-0180-1 RESEARCH Open Access Dynamics of Rex3 in the genomes of endangered Iberian Leuciscinae (Teleostei, Cyprinidae) and their natural hybrids Carla Sofia A. Pereira1* , Marlon F. Pazian1, Petr Ráb2 and Maria João Collares-Pereira1 Abstract Background: Iberian Leuciscinae are greatly diverse comprising taxa of hybrid origin. With highly conservative karyotypes, Iberian Chondrostoma s.l. have recently demonstrated sub-chromosomal differentiation and rapid genome restructuring in natural hybrids, which was confirmed by ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transposition and/or multiplication. To understand the role of repetitive DNAs in the differentiation of their genomes, a genetic and molecular cytogenetic survey was conducted in Achondrostoma oligolepis, Anaecypris hispanica, Iberochondrostoma lemmingii, I. lusitanicum, Pseudochondrostoma duriense, P. polylepis, Squalius pyrenaicus and hybrids between A. oligolepis x(P. duriense/P. polylepis), representing ‘alburnine’, chondrostomine and Squalius lineages. Results: Partial Rex3 sequences evidenced high sequence homology among Leuciscinae (≥98 %) and different fish families (80–95 %) proposing a relatively recent activity of these elements in the species inspected. Low nucleotide substitution rates (<20 %) and intact ORFs suggests that Rex3 may in fact be active in these genomes. The chromosomal distribution of Rex3 retroelement was found highly concentrated at pericentromeric and moderately at subtelomeric blocks, co-localizing with 5S rDNA loci, and correlating with blocks of heterochromatin and C0t-1 DNA. This accumulation was evident in at least 10 chromosome pairs, a pattern that seemed to be shared among the different species, likely pre-dating their divergence. Nevertheless, species-specific clusters were detected in I. lusitanicum, P.
