Abstract:(2018) The mitochondrial genome of the deep-sea tubeworm Paraescarpiaechinospica (Siboglinidae, Annelida) and its phylogenetic implications, Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 3:1, 131-132,
“…At these seeps, two species of Lamellibrachia have been noted, L. barhami at 1,800 meters (Levin et al 2012) and an unidentified Lamellibrachia at 1,000 meters (Levin et al 2015). We combine newly generated DNA data for Lamellibrachia samples from these sites with previously published DNA data (Braby et al 2007;Cowart et al 2014;Kobayashi et al 2015;Kojima et al 2001Kojima et al , 2006Li et al 2015Li et al , 2017McMullin et al 2003;Miglietta et al 2010;Sun et al, 2018) and confirm that there is a previously undescribed species of Lamellibrachia, which we describe here. This new species has a sister group in the Atlantic (Gulf of Mexico) and the biogeography of Lamellibrachia is discussed.…”

“…The Lamellibrachia phylogeny should also be considered in the context of the phylogeny of Siboglinidae (Rouse 2001;Sun et al 2018). In the Sun et al analysis (2018), generated with 13 mitochondrial genes and two ribosomal RNA genes, all sequenced seep-dwelling Vestimentifera (Lamellibrachia, Escarpia, Seepiophila, and Paraescarpia) formed a grade with respect to a vent-dwelling clade (Riftia, Ridgeia, Oasisia, Tevnia).…”

Lamellibrachia Webb, 1969 has eight currently recognized species reported from chemosynthetic environments in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Mediterranean. Of these, Lamellibrachia barhami Webb, 1969 has been reported in the eastern Pacific from Canada to Costa Rica. In this study, phylogenetic analyses of Lamellibrachia tubeworms sampled from the Costa Rica margin confirm the large geographic range of L. barhami and reveal a new Lamellibrachia species from a single methane seep between 999 and 1,040 meters. Lamellibrachia donwalshi sp. nov. differs genetically and morphologically from all congeneric species. Despite its geographic proximity to the eastern Pacific L. barhami, L. donwalshi sp. nov. formed a clade with Atlantic and Mediterranean Lamellibrachia species. This suggests a vicariant event may have occurred after an Atlantic radiation of Lamellibrachia.

“…In the present study, we sequenced the endosymbiont genome, metatranscriptome, and metaproteome of the siboglinid tubeworm Paraescarpia echinospica (the holobiont) inhabiting cold seeps in the South China Sea of the West Pacific Ocean [16, 17]. As the first integrated genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic analysis of cold-seep tubeworm, the present study aimed to decipher the interdependence between the host and symbiont with particular emphases on how the symbiont uses various metabolic pathways to generate energy, how the host and symbiont cooperate in nutrient provisions, and how the two partners regulate each other.…”
Deep-sea hydrothermal vents and methane seeps are often densely populated by animals that host chemosynthetic symbiotic bacteria, but the molecular mechanisms of such host-symbiont relationship remain largely unclear. We characterized the symbiont genome of the seep-living siboglinid Paraescarpia echinospica and compared seven siboglinid-symbiont genomes. Our comparative analyses indicate that seep-living siboglinid endosymbionts have more virulence traits for establishing infections and modulating host-bacterium interaction than the vent-dwelling species, and have a high potential to resist environmental hazards. Metatranscriptome and metaproteome analyses of the Paraescarpia holobiont reveal that the symbiont is highly versatile in its energy use and efficient in carbon fixation. There is close cooperation within the holobiont in production and supply of nutrients, and the symbiont may be able to obtain nutrients from host cells using virulence factors. Moreover, the symbiont is speculated to have evolved strategies to mediate host protective immunity, resulting in weak expression of host innate immunity genes in the trophosome. Overall, our results reveal the interdependence of the tubeworm holobiont through mutual nutrient supply, a pathogen-type regulatory mechanism, and host-symbiont cooperation in energy utilization and nutrient production, which is a key adaptation allowing the tubeworm to thrive in deep-sea chemosynthetic environments.

Lamellibrachia columna Southward was originally described from hydrothermal vents of the Lau Basin, between Fiji and Tonga. This study utilizes phylogenetic and morphological analyses to confirm the collection of Lamellibrachia columna from cold seeps on the Hikurangi Margin off New Zealand, thereby extending its geographic range southward by approximately 1900 km. We also propose, based on molecular evidence, that specimens previously reported from vents in the Nankai Trough, Japan and seeps off southern and eastern Japan are L. columna. Furthermore, we suggest that Lamellibrachia sagami Kobayashi et al. described from cold seeps off southern and eastern Japan is a junior synonym of Lamellibrachia columna. Our work confirms that L. columna is found at two types of chemosynthetic habitat over a wide geographic range in the western Pacific Ocean.
