“…The monosyllabicity of Sisoridae catfishes is supported. The P. kamengensis in this study and the other three selected Pareuchiloglanis fishes also form a monophyletic group, which is consistent with Yu's research results (Yu and He 2012). In addition, Pseudecheneis fishes have always been regarded as a group with an uncertain phylogenetic position in the study of Sisoridae catfishes.…”

2020)Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Pareuchiloglaniskamengensis in the Yarlung Zangbo River, Tibet, Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 5:1, 368-369, ABSTRACTPareuchiloglanis kamengensis belongs to the family of Sisoridae, Pareuchiloglanis. It is distributed in the Yarlung Zangbo River, the Irrawaddy River, the Nujiang River, and the Lancang River in southwestern China. In this study, we first published the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Pareuchiloglanis kamengensis, which was 16,589 bp in length. This genome consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a non-coding A þ T-rich region. The PCGs start with a traditional ATG except for COX1 and NAD3, which start with GTG and ATA instead, respectively, and end with stop codon TAA, TAG, TA, or a single T base. All tRNA have the typical clover-leaf structure. The phylogenetic tree of the whole mitogenome sequence is constructed by using neighbor-joining (NJ) method and the phylogenetic relationship among the family Sisoridae is further analyzed. We except to provide the theoretical basis for the further study of the phylogenetic relationship, taxonomic status, and conservation and management of genetic resources of Sisoridae catfishes.

“…As glyptosternoid fishes are mainly distributed in the Hengduan Mountains [ 5 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ], we focused on changes of the nucleotide substitution rate in the MRCA of this group. To test if positive selection may have occurred in the MRCA of this obligate high-altitude group, we compared the Ka / Ks values along the ancestral glyptosternoid branch to other branches.…”

“…For example, the genus Pseudecheneis clustered with the glyptosternoids within Guo et al, (2004, 2007) [ 3 , 6 ], but fell sister to the glyptosternoids in Guo et al, (2005) [ 4 ]. Pseudecheneis was recovered basal to all other sisorid genera by both Peng et al, (2004, 2006) and Yu & He (2012) [ 5 , 7 , 8 ]. Pareuchiloglanis was paraphyletic in Peng et al, (2006) [ 8 ], but not in Yu & He (2012) [ 7 ].…”

Previous phylogenetic analyses of the Chinese sisorid catfishes have either been poorly resolved or have not included all the 12 sisorid genera. Here, we successfully assembled the first complete mitochondrial genome of the sisorid fish Glyptothorax macromaculatus. Based on this novel mitochondrial genome and previously published mitochondrial genomes in the Sisoridae, we generated maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies. We dated our preferred topology using fossil calibration points. We also tested the protein-coding genes in the mitochondrial genomes of the glyptosternoid fishes for signals of natural selection by comparing the nucleotide substitution rate along the branch ancestral to the glyptosternoid fishes to other branches in our topology. The mitochondrial sequence structure of G. macromaculatus was similar to those known from other vertebrates, with some slight differences. Our sisorid phylogenies were well-resolved and well-supported, with exact congruence between the different phylogenetic methods. This robust phylogeny clarified the relationships among the Chinese sisorid genera and strongly supported the division of the family into three main clades. Interestingly, the glyptosternoid divergence time predicted by our molecular dating analysis coincided with the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau, suggesting that geology may have influenced speciation in the Sisoridae. Among the mitochondrial protein-coding genes, atp8 may have most rapidly evolved, and atp6 may have been subjected to positive selection pressure to adapt to high elevations. In summary, this study provided novel insights into the phylogeny, evolution and high-altitude adaptions of the Chinese sisorid fishes.

“…However, morphology‐based taxonomy or molecular‐based phylogeny techniques have previously failed to recognize these fishes correctly (Guo, Zhang, & He, ; Zhou, Li, & Thomson, ). Consequently, the lack of a robust phylogenetic relationship for these fishes hindered detailed research on biogeography (Guo, He, & Zhang, ; Yu & He, ), and, hence, our understanding of the evolution of Euchiloglanis species in Southwestern China. In the current study, we considered the Euchiloglanis species distributed in the Hengduan Mountain Region as a species complex, and we attempted to determine the phylogeographical patterns of Euchiloglanis within this region.…”

The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau caused significant ecogeographical changes that had a major impact on the exchange and isolation of regional fauna and flora. Furthermore, Pleistocene glacial oscillations were linked to temporal large‐scale landmass and drainage system reconfigurations near the Hengduan Mountain Region and might have facilitated speciation and promoted biodiversity in southwestern China. However, strong biotic evidence supporting this role is lacking. Here, we use the Euchiloglanis fish species complex as a model to demonstrate the compound effects of the Tibetan Plateau uplift and Pleistocene glacial oscillations on species formation in this region. The genetic structure and geographical differentiation of the Euchiloglanis complex in four river systems within the Hengduan Mountain Region were deduced using the cytochrome b (cyt b) gene and 10 microsatellite loci from 360 to 192 individuals, respectively. The results indicated that the populations were divided into four independently evolving lineages, in which the populations from the Qingyi River and Jinsha River formed two sub‐lineages. Phylogenetic relationships were structured by geographical isolation, especially near drainage systems. Divergence time estimation analyses showed that the Euchiloglanis complex diverged from its sister clade Pareuchiloglanis sinensis at around 1.3 Million years ago (Ma). Within the Euchiloglanis complex, the divergence time between the Dadu–Yalong and Jinsha–Qingyi River populations occurred at 1.0 Ma. This divergence time was in concordance with recent geological events, including the Kun‐Huang Movement (1.2–0.6 Ma) and the lag time (<2.0 Ma) of river incision in the Hengduan Mountain Region. Population expansion signals were detected from mismatched distribution analyses, and the expansion times were concurrent with Pleistocene glacier fluctuations. Therefore, current phylogeographic patterns of the Euchiloglanis fish complex in the Hengduan Mountain Region were influenced by the uplift event of the Tibetan Plateau and were subsequently altered by paleo‐river transitions during the late Pleistocene glacial oscillations.
