We used the recent phylogenomic tree from Kolmann et al., (2021) to generate a phylogenetic framework to account for shared ancestry among species. Kolmann et al., (2021) used exon capture to generate a phylogeny of serrasalmids from 951 exons. The taxon sampling covers 63 of the currently recognized 100 serrasalmid species with representatives from all recognized serrasalmid genera. The exon probe set they used contains several exons that are legacy markers traditionally used in resolving fish phylogenetics (Arcila et al., 2017). To increase taxon sampling, we utilized six legacy markers sequenced by Kolmann et al., (2021) (COI, ENC1, FICD, IRBP, SREB2, and VCPIP) that have also been used to resolve fish phylogenetic relationships.We obtained additional sequences from GenBank for COI and SREB2 that have previously been used in resolving serrasalmid relationships (Thompson et al., 2014;Machado et al., 2018).Additionally, we added a marker not included in the exon dataset of Kolmann et al., (2021), PTR, which had previously been used for serrasalmid phylogenetics (Thompson et al., 2014). Two species, Utiaritichthys sennaebragai (SRX7670167) and Serrasalmus hollandi (SRX7670146), only have sequence data on the NCBI Sequence Read Archive from a recent ultraconserved elements (UCEs) study of serrasalmids (Mateussi et al., 2020). To add these species into our
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
