概括
遗传学分析显示,大猫中占主导地位的基因组树不是物种树. 相反,狮子和之间肆虐的杂交,而不是物种化,塑造了它们的进化历史.
科学领域:
- 进化生物学 进化生物学
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
- 人类遗传学 是一个学科.
背景情况:
- 种系重建受到物种间杂交的挑战,其中杂交可以掩盖真正的物种树.
- 潘得拉物种 (美洲虎,狮子,) 之间的进化关系复杂且难以解决.
- 以前的研究表明,杂交可能在Panthera进化中发挥了作用.
研究的目的:
- 使用全基因组数据调查美洲虎,狮子和之间的遗传关系.
- 为了确定杂交是否影响了这些物种中占主导地位的遗传学信号.
- 评估杂交对从基因组数据推断物种树的影响.
主要方法:

- 用最大概率树从不同大小的基因组片段进行的家族基因组学分析.
- 对重组率进行了校正的差异时间估计.
- 侵入性分析和多种类聚合与侵入性 (MSci) 建模.
主要成果:
- 最大的概率树始终支持单一的物种,但显示出联合狮子和的支配拓.
- 这种主导拓在高重组区中普遍存在,而替代拓在低重组区中更加丰富.
- 对分歧时间的分析表明,年轻的狮子和分裂,这表明分化后的混合物.
- 内进化分析和MSci模型证实了狮子和之间的普遍杂交,拒绝了没有内进化的模型.
结论:

Genetics of Speciation
18.9K
Speciation is the evolutionary process resulting in the formation of new, distinct species—groups of reproductively isolated populations.

Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons
5.6K
Genome comparison is one of the excellent ways to interpret the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The basic principle of genome comparison is that if two species share a common feature, it is likely encoded by the DNA sequence conserved between both species. The advent of genome sequencing technologies in the late 20th century enabled scientists to understand the concept of conservation of domains between species and helped them to deduce evolutionary relationships across diverse...

Phylogenetic Trees
45.0K
Phylogenetic trees come in many forms. It matters in which sequence the organisms are arranged from the bottom to the top of the tree, but the branches can rotate at their nodes without altering the information. The lines connecting individual nodes can be straight, angled, or even curved.

Mutation, Gene Flow, and Genetic Drift
57.7K
In a population that is not at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of alleles changes over time. Therefore, any deviations from the five conditions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can alter the genetic variation of a given population. Conditions that change the genetic variability of a population include mutations, natural selection, non-random mating, gene flow, and genetic drift (small population size).

Phylogeny
43.4K
Phylogeny is concerned with the evolutionary diversification of organisms or groups of organisms. A group of organisms with a name is called a taxon (singular). Taxa (plural) can span different levels of the evolutionary hierarchy. For instance, the group containing all birds is a taxon (comprising the class Aves), and the group of all species of daisies (the genus Bellis) is a taxon. Phylogenies can likewise include just one genus (i.e., depict species relationships) or span an entire kingdom.
