Eurotatorian paraphyly: Revisiting phylogenetic relationships based on the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Rotaria rotatoria (Bdelloidea: Rotifera: Syndermata)

Abstract: BackgroundThe Syndermata (Rotifera+Acanthocephala) is one of the best model systems for studying the evolutionary origins and persistence of different life styles because it contains a series of lineage-specific life histories: Monogononta (cyclic parthenogenetic and free-living), Bdelloidea (entirely parthenogenetic and mostly benthic dweller), Seisonidea (exclusively bisexual and epizoic or ectoparasitic), and Acanthocephala (sexual and obligatory endoparasitic). Providing phylogenetic resolution to the ques… Show more

“…in addition, the monophyly of Ecdysozoa was supported (1.00 BPP), which is a sister clade to lophotrochozoa with high supporting value (1.00 BPP), as reported by other authors (Dunn et al 2008, Min andPark 2009). However, further phylogenetic research should include more taxa in order to resolve phylogenetic relationship among acanthocephalans and rotifers and in-between.…”

“…it appears certain that acanthocephalans are closely related with bdelloids and that they together form a clade with high support value, which then correlates with another group, monogononts in rotifers. this relationship has been supported by analyses using other molecular markers, such as 16s rrNA, 18s rrNA and 28s rrNA (garey et al 1998, garcía-Varela and Nadler 2006, Witek et al 2008, and using mt genes and/or genomes (steinauer et al 2005, Min and Park 2009, Fontaneto and Jondelius 2011, gazi et al 2012, Weber et al 2013. Using also mt genomes, Podsiadlowski et al (2009) included only one species of acanthocephalan (listed as the genus Leptorhynchoides) and a monogonont (Brachionus) in the phylogenetic analysis of lophotrochozoans, but phylogenetic relationship in the syndermata was not even dealt with in their research.…”
