“…We found evidence of LD (p < 0.001) between Pgen4_1 and Pgen4_10. A similar range of alleles (4-23 per locus) were found in the congener P. abbreviata in microsatellite loci (n = 21) obtained from NGS (Ahanchede et al, 2013) and similar results have been reported in others mollusk (An & Lee, 2012;Greenley et al, 2012). The quality of a marker can be determined by its degree of polymorphism.…”

“…Microsatellites specific for G. divaricata (López-Márquez et al, 2016) were initially tested using nested-PCR conditions following the protocol developed for the mollusc Panopea abbreviata and the nemertean Malacobdella arrokeana (Ahanchédé et al, 2013; Alfaya et al, 2014, respectively). This consisted in a two steps PCR: in the first round, a forward primer with a tail at its 5′ end (PaulAn, see Acevedo et al, 2009) and a reverse primer were used.…”

Genetic connectivity studies are essential to understand species diversity and genetic structure and to assess the role of potential factors affecting connectivity, thus enabling sound management and conservation strategies. Here, we analyzed the patterns of genetic variability in the marine snail Gibbula divaricata from five coastal locations in the central-south Adriatic Sea (central Mediterranean) and one in the adjacent northern Ionian Sea, using 21 described polymorphic microsatellite loci. Observed and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.582 to 0.635 and 0.684 to 0.780, respectively. AMOVA analyses showed that 97% of genetic variation was observed within populations. Nevertheless, significant, although small, genetic differentiation was found among nearly all of the pairwise FST comparisons. Over a general pattern of panmixia, three groups of populations were identified: eastern Adriatic populations, western Adriatic populations, and a third group represented by the single northern Ionian Sea population. Nonetheless, migration and gene flow were significant between these groups. Gibbula divaricata is thought to have a limited dispersal capacity related to its lecithotrophic trochophore larval stage. Our results indicated high levels of self-recruitment and gene flow that is mainly driven through coastline dispersion, with populations separated by the lack of suitable habitats or deep waters. This stepping-stone mode of dispersion together with the high levels of self-recruitment could lead to higher levels of population structuring and differentiation along the Adriatic Sea. Large effective population sizes and episodic events of long-distance dispersal might be responsible for the weak differentiation observed in the analyzed populations. In summary, the circulation system operating in this region creates natural barriers for dispersion that, together with life-history traits and habitat requirements, certainly affect connectivity in G. divaricata. However, this scenario of potential differentiation seems to be overridden by sporadic events of long-distance dispersal across barriers and large effective population sizes.

Plant geographic phenotypic variation drives diversification in its associated community of a phytophagous insect and its parasitoids

BackgroundWhile the communities constituted by phytophageous insects and their parasites may represent half of all terrestrial animal species, understanding their diversification remains a major challenge. A neglected idea is that geographic phenotypic variation in a host plant may lead to heterogeneous evolutionary responses of the different members of the associated communities. This could result in diversification on a host plant by ecological speciation in some species, leading to geographic variation in community composition. In this study we investigated geographic variation of inflorescence receptacle size in a plant, Ficus hirta, and how the hymenopteran community feeding in the inflorescences has responded. Our predictions were:Inflorescence size variation affects wasp species differently depending on how they access oviposition sites.In some affected lineages of wasps, we may observe vicariant, parapatric species adapted to different inflorescence sizes.ResultsWe show that fig (the enclosed inflorescence of Ficus) wall thickness varies geographically. The fig-entering pollinating wasp was not affected, while the parasites ovipositing through the fig wall were. Two parapatric species of Philotrypesis, exhibiting strikingly different ovipositor lengths, were recorded. One species of Sycoscapter was also present, and it was restricted, like the shorter-ovipositor Philotrypesis, to the geographic zone where fig walls were thinner.ConclusionsPrevious work on fig wasps suggested that parapatric geographic ranges among congenerics were due to adaptation to variation in abiotic factors, complemented by interspecific competition. Our results show that parapatric ranges may also result from adaptation to variation in biotic factors. Within an insect community, differences among species in their response to geographic phenotypic variation of their host plant may result in geographically heterogeneous community structure. Such heterogeneity leads to heterogeneous interaction networks among sites. Our results support the hypothesis that plant geographic phenotypic variation can be a driver of diversification in associated insect communities, and can complement other diversification processes.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12862-018-1239-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
