Oral Mini-Symposium 26: Biodiversity and Diversification of Reef Organisms 26-46 Geographic Structure and Cryptic Species in Oculina Inferred from Nuclear Gene Sequences Michael HELLBERG* 1 , Ron EYTAN 2 , Marshall HAYES 3 , Margaret MILLER 4 1 Biological Sciences, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, 2 Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, 3 Duke University Marine Lab, Beaufort, NC, 4 NOAA Fisheries, Miami, FL Colony form is often highly plastic within coral species, leading to taxonomic confusion that cripples efforts to understand the biology of species or to manage their populations. This may be especially troublesome for species found in a variety of habitats. Species of the genus Oculina occur along the southeastern coast of the United States and into the Caribbean. Their forms range from small, shallow water colonies that tolerate turbid conditions without bleaching, to deep water azooxanthellate colonies that form reefs extending up to 10 m off the substrate. Our objective was to assess the history of genetic connectivity among nominal species, populations found at different depths, and populations from along ca. 2000 km of their range along the southeastern coast of the US. Although sequence markers are best suited for drawing inferences about population history, mtDNA in anthozoans has proven too slowly evolving for use within species. As an alternative, we developed three nuclear sequence markers from expressed sequence tags (EST's) drawn from a cDNA library. Comparisons with a confamilial species (Solenastrea bournoni) shows the three nuclear gene regions evolve at rates ten times faster than mitochondrial COI. Variation within these genes reveals no differentiation between nominal species nor between shallow (1 m) and mid-depth (30 m) populations from the same locale. However, populations did vary geographically, with a pronounced attenuation of variation to the north of Cape Canaveral consistent with a historical range expansion. Most notably, the population from the deep water Oculina Banks (> 80 m) were more distinct than any other sampled, with two of three loci consisting solely of alleles found nowhere else, a degree of differentiation suggesting long term genetic isolation. 26-47 Using The Toolbox On Acroporidae Carden WALLACE* 1 1 Museum of Tropical Queensland, Townsville, Australia The scleractinian family Acroporidae has maintained a major role in the waxing and waning of coral assemblages and evolution of species diversity, through time and throughout the world, to become a dominant family on modern Indo-Pacific reefs, and its type genus Acropora the most diverse coral genus. New information from molecular studies has prompted neontologists and paleontologists to re-examine membership of this family and re-assess the evolutionary and biogeographic consequences of various life histories and morphologies. So far, we have elevated Isopora (a subgenus of Acropora) to genus, and are considering combining Montipora and Anacropora, and changing the family status of Alveopora, all changes indicated by molecular phylogenies and supported by other evidence. In modern and paleontological distribution studies, it has been found that the widespread Indo-Pacific genus Isopora was briefly present and abundant in the southern Caribbean before becoming extinct there, and that Acropora already exhibited much of its current structural diversity during its build-up on European reefs, before post-Miocene Indo-Pacific diversification. Because Isopora and Acropora have differing reproductive strategies (viviparity versus oviparity respectively), clarification of their taxonomy, modern distribution and paleoecology are indicating the extinction vulnerability incurred by the different strategies under differing environmental scenarios. Dendracis, which occurred in western Indian Ocean, Mediterranean and Caribbean, became extinct by the Miocene, possibly due to a poor potential for morphological variation relative to Acropora, although the almost equally non-diverse Astreopora has survived to the present day. This paper will present an update on the research and researchers involved in the taxonomic renaissance of Acroporidae and the application of the new findings to new issues in coral reef biology. 26-48 Need For A More Integrative Approach To Scleractinian Taxonomy Vassil ZLATARSKI* 1 1 Independent Consultant, Bristol, RI Different approaches have been used for scleractinian taxonomy. The original taxonomy was typological and based on skeletal parts. Then, the variability of the coralla was recognized at the end of the 19th century. In 1930’s very detailed skeletal studies of fossil and extant scleractinians began. After 1960 scuba facilitated in situ observations and sampling and helped reveal a global variability that challenged taxonomy. Beginning in the 1980’s the discoveries of molecular genetics and life history offered new taxonomic tools. In the last years a taxonomy based on the genetic method found some gross-morphology characters to be homoplasious rather than represent common descent. These molecular data contradict the conventional systematics, but appear to be compatible with detailed paleontological skeletal studies. Presently, there are four sources of scleractinian taxonomic information: morphology, paleobiology, developmental biology, and molecular genetics. Only the efficient collaboration of specialists using all existing lines of evidence can combine these data into an improved integrative taxonomy. It is therefore imperative to form an international body of taxonomists of extant and fossil scleractinians, to develop and prioritize goals in global, regional and specific cases, and to coordinate efforts to solve the fundamental and applied taxonomic tasks. These efforts should gain from more complete sampling, field observations and experiments, application of digital tools, usage of cyberinfrastructure, improved collection preservation, and virtual access to collections, along with training of taxonomists to meet the tasks. The present state of the fundamental taxonomy is reflected in the quality of the applied taxonomy and explains the shortage of reliable coral-identification tools necessary for better understanding and preservation of reef diversity. 26-49 Intragenomic Its2 Variation: Low Rates Of Concerted Evolution Are Concordant With Recent Species Radiations in Reef Octocorals Juan SANCHEZ* 1 , Camila GRANADOS 1 , Daniel DORADO 1 , Nestor ARDILA 1 , Nelson MANRIQUE 1 , Luisa DUEÑAS 1 , Olga TORRES 1 , Martha CARDENAS 1 , Santiago HERRERA 1 , Claudia AGUDELO 1 1 Biological Sciences, Universidad de los Andes, Bogota, Colombia The internal transcribed spacer 2 is part of the nuclear ribosomal cistron, whose secondary structure has an important function for the ribosome assembling. For a number of years, contrasting results in terms of inter- and intra-specific ITS2 variation have been found in a number of taxa including reef cnidarians. There are different results finding either single or multiple intragenomic variants, even pseudogenes, which have brought a great deal of confusion regarding the evolution and usefulness of ITS2 for phylogenetic reconstruction as well as the generality of the nRNA concerted evolution process. We examined ITS2 copies in a diverse number of Atlantic and Pacific octocorals (Octocorallia: Cnidaria) using Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) coupled with DNA sequencing, phylogenetic approaches, and prediction of RNA secondary structures. First we found that morphologically diverse taxa exhibited high intragenomic variation. Candidate pseudogenes were seldom found in a few octocorals but most of the multiple intragenomic ITS2 variants were functional according to secondary structure predictions. These low rates of concerted evolution in ITS2, i.e. multiple intragenomic functional ITS2 copies, were concordant with low substitution rates in mitochondrial DNA within multiple-taxa and morphologically diverse octocoral clades. A few intraspecific analyses revealed also that some of the ITS2 copies are shared among populations and might follow gene flow patterns. Moreover, we suggest that low rates of concerted evolution, such as multiple intragenomic ITS2 variants, are concordant with recent species radiations in octocorals, as seen as diverse closely related species with high morphologic diversity but low mitochondrial divergence. What process is driving such rapid radiation and increased phylogenetic diversity is still unknown in reef octocorals. 253
Oral Mini-Symposium 26: Biodiversity and Diversification of Reef Organisms 26-50 Mitochondrial Gene Variation And The Search For An Octocoral Barcode Catherine MCFADDEN* 1 , Andrew NEVAREZ 2 1 Biology, Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, CA, 2 Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, CA Slow rates of mitochondrial gene evolution have hindered the development of speciesspecific genetic markers, or DNA barcodes, in the anthozoan cnidarians. Previous studies of various mitochondrial gene regions have concluded that levels of mtDNA variation simply are not sufficient to reliably distinguish closely related species of anthozoans. These results have been extrapolated to predict that the 5' fragment of cytochrome oxidase I (COI), proposed for use as a universal species-specific marker for the “Barcode of Life” initiative, will not differentiate all anthozoan species. Levels of sequence variation in this approximately 640 bp gene region have never been explicitly quantified in the anthozoan subclass Octocorallia, however, in part because the universal “Folmer” PCR primers do not amplify octocoral COI. Using octocoral-specific PCR primers, we examined intra- and interspecific variation in the 5' COI region in a genus of soft corals for which species boundaries have previously been confirmed using allozymes and other genetic markers. Most, but not all, pairs of sister taxa could be differentiated on the basis of unique substitutions in COI, but levels of intraspecific variation were often comparable to or greater than the observed interspecific differences. Two other mitochondrial gene regions, the COI-COII intergenic spacer and the 5' fragment of the octocoral-specific mitochondrial mutS homolog (msh1), had levels of intra- and interspecific variation comparable to the 5' COI fragment. A barcode that combined all three of these gene regions (~1500 bp total) had increased species-specificity relative to COI alone, but still lacked sufficient variation to distinguish all species pairs unequivocably. We conclude that COI is an adequate genus- and clade-specific barcode for octocorals, but even in combination with other equally variable mtDNA regions it lacks sufficient variation to be a reliable species-specific marker. 26-51 Phylogenetic Analysis Of The Caribbean Genera Eunicea And Plexaura (Octocorallia) Carlos PRADA* 1 , Nikolaos SCHIZAS 2 1 Marine Sciences, University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez, Lajas, Puerto Rico, 2 Marine Sciences, Universitry of Puerto Rico, Lajas, Puerto Rico Shallow water octocorals are conspicuously found in Caribbean reefs, yet aspects of their basic biology and systematics remain uncertain. Taxonomic work has traditionally relied on morphological features, but often some of these characters are inconclusive or not readily observed, introducing ambiguities in identification keys. Extensive phenotypic plasticity further complicates the correct species identification. Eunicea is the most diverse octocoral genus in Caribbean reefs and species of this genus are separated by shape and size of calices and sclerites. These characters are highly plastic, generating non-discrete patterns which are necessary to correctly identify species. Here, a phylogenetic reconstruction of the genera Plexaura and Eunicea is presented, using mitochondrial and recently developed nuclear markers. The molecular evolution of both genomes is compared and the suitability of these markers to address species boundaries and population level questions is explored. An earlier taxonomic hypothesis regarding the non-monophyletic status of Eunicea based on the shape of external clubs is phylogenetically tested. Discrete forms of Plexaura homomalla (i.e., kukenthali and homomalla) are examined to determine their taxonomic status. An example is provided where two distinct genetic lineages are present within the conspicuous, well studied Eunicea flexuosa. 26-52 Total Evidence Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis Of Octocorallia (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) Yields A Replete Evolutionary Hypothesis And Identifies Potential Species-Level Markers Jaret BILEWITCH* 1 , Kathryn COATES 2 1 Dept. of Geology, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, 2 Dept. of Conservation Services, Bermuda Ministry of the Environment, Flatts, Bermuda Recent studies seeking to elucidate the species-level systematics of octocorals have been hindered by low variability in the mitochondrial genome. Although many multi-locus datasets are available in GenBank, including some complete sequences of mitochondrial genomes, a comprehensive analysis using several (or all) of them has not been attempted. We sought to consolidate the findings of these studies into a single phylogenetic hypothesis. All existing mitochondrial sequences of octocorals available in GenBank were collated, along with several large nuclear datasets, and the combined alignment was analyzed in a ‘total evidence’ approach. Application of both parsimonious and model-based phylogenetic criteria yielded results that were largely concordant with the hypotheses originally associated with individual datasets and also allowed comparison to taxa from disparate datasets. The resulting comprehensive phylogeny also summarizes the efforts of researchers to date and indicates several areas where future attempts may be directed. While the focus of many recent studies has been in locating novel one- or two-locus species-level markers, we find that the existing data, when analyzed collectively is ample to address alpha-taxonomic questions, albeit only for species with sufficient numbers of informative characters. Furthermore, our total evidence analysis suggests that several species-level markers may have already been overlooked due to insufficient taxon sampling at the time they were obtained. We advocate that future attempts be analyzed in combination with previous datasets in order to maximize the information content of phylogenetic hypotheses and maintain an inclusive and contemporary synthesis of octocoral systematics. 26-53 Molecular Recognition Of Zooxanthella Clade G in Caribbean Excavating Sponges (Cliona Spp.) Camila GRANADOS* 1 , Carolina CAMARGO 1 , Dairo ESCOBAR 1 , Sven ZEA 2 , Juan A SÁNCHEZ 1 1 Laboratorio de Biología Molecular Marina, BIOMMAR, Departamento de Ciencias Biológicas, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia, 2 Departamento de Biología y Centro de Estudios en Ciencias del Mar - CECIMAR, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Santa Marta, Colombia Zooxanthellae (Symbiodinium) are symbiotic dinoflagellates distributed in tropical and subtropical reefs. Eight major clades of zooxanthellae, symbiotic to different organisms such as cnidarians, sponges, and foraminifera, have been found (termed A–H) using molecular techniques. Among them, sponges are one of the least studied for this symbiotic relationship. They are present and abundant in most marine-ecosystems. Besides participating as important bioeroders of the reef framework, some of them engage symbiosis with zooxanthella. Although they are potentially threatened by the same environmental factors affecting reef-building corals they seem to be less affected. In this study, five sponge species were surveyed (Cliona caribbaea, C. tenuis, C. varians, C. aprica, C. laticavicola) in order to characterize the Symbiodinium lineages using molecular markers (SSU-rDNA-18S, ITS2, cp23S-rDNA, and mtDNA) and phylogenetic approaches. Three different sites were sampled in Colombia, which included Southern and Southwestern Caribbean reefs. All specimens collected at all sites contained Symbiodinium clades-A, B, & G determined by the molecular markers. Inferred phylogenies were concordant with all the clades described. Findings of clades-A&B fitted with the general pattern of the province, where clade-B is almost endemic and types such as A4 engage symbiosis with many species. A new finding was the presence of Symbiodinium clade- G. It is found in a wide range of invertebrates but they seem restricted to the Western Pacific. Particularly intriguing, foraminifera that have clade-G in the Indopacific have clade-C in the Eastern Pacific and F or H in the Caribbean. Given that this is the first time clade-G is reported at any Atlantic location, it arises the question on the lineage origin: 1) due to differences in the primordial origin of the symbiosis between sponges and corals or 2) there is a phylogeneticrelic through common ancestors of sponges clades, latter being tested with the host sponge phylogeny. 254
