▼ Most important organismal adaptations are not actually single traits, but complex trait syndromes that are evolutionarily integrated into a single emergent phenotype. In plants, crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a complex trait that improves water use and photosynthetic efficiency under drought and temperature stress. Though CAM is an important and ubiquitous ecological adaptation, having evolved hundreds of times from the more common C3 photosynthetic pathway, we still know very little about its evolutionary assembly. In addition to fully expressed constitutive CAM, there are other well-known phenotypes that perform small amounts of CAM in an otherwise C3 background (i.e. C3-CAM intermediates). Untangling the evolution of CAM requires piecing together the genetic, biochemical, anatomical, physiological, and ecological aspects of this trait and reconstructing the evolutionary order of its assembly. In this study we characterize most of these properties associated with CAM evolution across Australian Calandrinia and species representatives from the Montiaceae and wider sub-order, Portulacineae. We use a targeted gene capture approach to sequence hundreds of loci across Australian Calandrinia (~70 species) and Montiaceae, resulting in the first and complete phylogeny for the lineage. We estimate the divergence of Australian Calandrinia from its sister lineage to ~ 30 Ma, concurrent with separation of Australia from Antarctica, and show that although the lineage radiated across inland Australia during the mid-Miocene, coincident with the initial onset of aridity, diversification slowed dramatically with the establishment of severe aridity. Through robust phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses we demonstrate that C3-CAM phenotypes are anatomically intermediates between C3 and full CAM, and that the evolution of CAM biochemistry precedes the evolution of full CAM morphological and anatomical traits. Given the number of C3-CAM reversals detected within Australia Calandrinia and the Montiaceae, we propose a model of CAM evolution that allows for lability and reversibility among C3-CAM phenotypes and C3 photosynthesis, and where C3-CAM evolves prior to the realization of full CAM. Finally, we hypothesize that once a species evolves full CAM, with the associated anatomical changes such as extreme succulence, large cells, and little intercellular airspace, reversibility back to C3 or C3-CAM photosynthesis may no longer be evolutionarily accessible.

▼ A fossil-calibrated phylogenetic framework based on exemplars from each of the four taxonomic sections within Pinus was created using multiple nuclear and chloroplast loci. Calibration at the well-defined subgeneric split within Pinus with either fossil leaves and cones (ca. 45 million years ago) or fossil wood (ca. 85 million years ago) provides a reasonable starting point. Despite a wide difference in rates between loci, this work infers a moderate tempo of mutation rate in Pinus, and concludes that the within-locus rate variation and the leaves vs. wood question are both minor factors in comparison to the enormous effects of incorrect fossil/node association. Next, I used full taxonomic sampling with multiple individuals per species and two nuclear loci to create independent phylogenies for 18 species in subsection Ponderosae (Section Trifoliae, subgenus Pinus). I estimate that some species have enormous effective population sizes (> 105 individuals). This factor and an inferred origin 15 million years ago contribute to the lack of species-level coalescence and the incongruence between Ponderosae gene trees. Pinus jeffreyi is allied with Sabinianae, as proposed from terpene biochemistry. I observed one instance where reticulate evolution is likely. Pinus coulteri accessions resolve with Sabinianae at one locus, but in a monophyletic clade sister to other Ponderosae at the other locus, suggesting that this species originated as a diploid hybrid. Similar incongruence between loci for accessions of the P. ponderosa/P. washoensis complex could also be the result of introgression. Using this phylogenetic framework, I focused on three sympatric Ponderosae (P. washoensis, P. ponderosa, and P. jeffreyi) to evaluate the genetic distinctiveness and specific status of P. washoensis. Population-level sampling with faster-evolving nuclear microsatellite loci reveals a clear divergence between P. jeffreyi and the P. ponderosa/P. washoensis complex. Using allele frequencies, I observed a weak cluster of traditional P. washoensis with high-elevation putative P. washoensis populations from Oregon, but other methods show no differentiation between P. ponderosa and P. washoensis. Nuclear admixture and chloroplast haplotype analysis suggest a low level of introgression between P. jeffreyi and P. ponderosa/P. washoensis, providing an important source of migrants into the genetic milieu of these species.

▼ The brown algal genus Lessonia is distributed in the Southern Hemisphere where it can form dominant kelp beds on the exposed rocky shores of New Zealand, South America and Tasmania. Its disjunct distribution within the West Wind Drift contrasts with the view that it is a poor disperser. Apart from studies in Chile, where it is an economically important genus, little is known about Lessonia and in some areas even the number of species is unknown. Using different genetic markers I examined the phylogeny, phylogeography, and the connectivity of populations in Lessonia. Using the literature, species affiliations and nomenclatural problems have been investigated. Combining the sequences of three mitochondrial, one chloroplast and two nuclear markers, a supermatrix approach was used to investigate the phylogenetic relationship and the timing of speciation for all known Lessonia species. The Australasian Lessonia species form a clade within a paraphyletic grouping of South American species. Radiation in Lessonia occurred about 5 Mya at the beginning of the Pliocene and rapid radiation took place in Australasia 3.5 Mya. The data also revealed cryptic species within a L. variegata species complex. Further analysis within the Australasian clade, using mitochondrial (atp8-sp) and chloroplast (rbc-sp) markers and wider sampling (469 individuals from 57 sample sites) supported four cryptic species and revealed localized distribution for all Australasian lineages. Genetic breaks between Lessonia lineages corresponded well to known biogeographic regions and could be correlated to the geographic structure of New Zealand at the end of the Pliocene. The Cook Strait region was analysed more closely with newly developed microsatellite markers to test the influence of geographic breaks (Cook Strait and Palliser Bay) on the connectivity of populations. The results suggested that connectivity depends on the width of unsuitable habitat, and within inner Cook Strait it is facilitated by sometimes strong tidal flows that create turbulences and unique current patterns. The results implied that rafting is an important mean of dispersal. The study of the early literature on Lessonia supported the new lectotypification of L. flavicans but revealed that L. frutescens and possibly L. ovata (supported by images of rediscovered herbarium material) are synonymous to L. searlesiana and as the older epithets they should have priority. Suggestions have been made for the lectotypification of L. fuscescens and L. ovata. In general Lessonia shows non-overlapping distribution in Australasia but overlapping distribution in South America. Despite being a poor disperser, indicated by fine scale genetic structure, Lessonia is also able to connect populations over wide areas of unsuitable habitats.

▼ Vestimentifera inhabit hydrothermal vents, cold-water seeps and other marine reducing habitats. The objectives of this study were to analyse phylogenetic relationships among the extant species and their affinities to perviate and moniliferan Pogonophora and Polychaeta. The phylogeny was reconstructed using morphological characters to test phylogenetic hypotheses based on molecular data. Morphological characters were partly extracted from the literature and partly gained throughout study of gross morphological and anatomical investigations and light, transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Three aspects of morphology were examined in detail in nine vestimentiferan species. The excretory system differs among the vestimentiferan species in the number of excretory pores, absence/presence of excretory papillae and grooves and shape of the excretory ducts. The anatomy of the excretory system resembles that shared by the polychaete families Serpulidae, Sabellidae and Sabellariidae. Chaetal ultrastructure and chaetogenesis show patterns similar to uncini in polychaetes. Contrary to published accounts, the septa dividing the opisthosomal segments only bear musculature on their posterior faces. A rudimentary gut and anus are present in opisthosomes of specimens up to adult size. The blood vascular system includes an intravasal body in the dorsal vessel with ultrastructural characteristics similar to intravasal tissue in Terebellidae, Ampharetidae, Flabelligeridae and Serpulidae, and is probably involved in hemoglobin production. Hemocytes were detected in many blood vessels, most of them attached to the vascular lamina. The sinus valvatus is a specialised region of the anterior ventral vessel, apparently unique to vestimentiferans. The wall of the dorsal vessel is formed by myoepithelial cells, representing a coelomyarian type of double obliquely striated musculature. Phylogenetic analyses including a total of 17 vestimentiferan species and three perviate species as outgroups support molecular interpretations that the vestimentiferan species inhabiting basalt-hosted vents of the Eastern Pacific represent a derived monophyletic clade. According to the reconstructed phylogeny, the ancestral habitat of Vestimentifera was deep-water sedimented vent sites in the Western Pacific. Analysis of the relationships among Pogonophora and six polychaete families placed Pogonophora at the base of a clade including Sabellidae, Serpulidae and Sabellariidae. The Oweniidae represent the sister group to this clade. Advisors/Committee Members: Tunnicliffe, Verena Julia (supervisor).

▼ The longhorned wood boring beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) are a diverse and economically important group of insects. With an estimated 4,000 genera and more than 35,000 described species, the Cerambycidae comprise one of the largest beetle families. Cerambycid beetles are found on all continents except Antarctica, from sea level to montane sites as high as 4000 m. Cerambycids are among the most serious wood boring pest species globally, affecting many agricultural crops, ornamental trees, and lumber products, causing millions of dollars in damage each year. Despite their economic importance and biological diversity, relatively little is known of cerambycid beetle ecology, behavior, or phylogenetic relationships. A better understanding of all of these factors would greatly contribute to conservation of endangered species, and in managing invasive species that could become pests in their new countries and habitats. In Chapter 1, I present the phylogenetic relationships among the tribes and genera of longhorned beetle subfamilies Prioninae Latreille and Parandrinae Blanchard (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) inferred from DNA sequence data. Four genes (12S rRNA, 28S rRNA, cytochrome oxidase I, and histone III) were sequenced for 60 taxa representing the outgroup cerambycoid family Disteniidae Thomson and four cerambycid subfamilies: Cerambycinae Latreille, Lamiinae Latreille, Lepturinae Latreille, and Spondylidinae Audinet-Serville. The monophyly of Prioninae was tested using parsimony and Bayesian analyses. Prioninae (including Parandrinae and the cerambycine genus Plectogaster) was recovered as a monophyletic group in the Bayesian analysis. In the parsimony analysis, Prioninae (including Parandrinae but excluding two prionine genera: Aesa and Sarmydus) was also recovered as a monophyletic group. Both analyses recovered the subfamilies Lamiinae, Lepturinae, and Spondylidinae as monophyletic groups, as well as the Parandrinae + Prioninae clade as sister to Cerambycinae. Relationships among prionine tribes had low support values in both analyses, likely due to missing sequence data for a majority of included taxa, as well as relatively sparse taxonomic coverage (23 of 200 described genera, 11 of 18 tribes included). In Chapter 2, I present the first morphological study and phylogenetic analysis of the tribe Onciderini Thomson (Cerambycidae: Lamiinae). Members of this tribe are commonly referred to as the "twig girdlers" due to the peculiar behavior exhibited by adult females of at least four of 80 described genera. For the morphological study, specimens representing 74 of the 80 described genera of Onciderini were disarticulated and dissected. Twenty-three morphological characters were illustrated and studied, including the head, mandible, ligula, pronotum, prosternum, mesonotum, metendosternite, hind wing, and aedeagus. Seventy-four ingroup taxa and three outgroup taxa were scored for 23 morphological characters. Results of both the cladistic and Bayesian analyses suggest that Onciderini is… Advisors/Committee Members: Miller, Kelly B., Branham, Marc A., Lowrey, Timothy K., Poe, Steven.

▼ The genus Petrolisthes is the largest, the most widely distributed genus in the family Porcellanidae. It contains over 100 species distributed around the world , including over 16 species commonly found near the shore of Taiwan . We discuss the diversity and phylogeny of them, and the similarities and dissimilarites of between the molecular biology and traditional morphology. We got 15 pocerlain crabs specimen and almost 900bp and 800bp of them in the 16S rRNA and 12SrRNA of MtDNA respectively. The average pairwise distances is 0.2510 and 0.2249, and the phylogenetic relationship can be determined by observing the morphology of the Petrolisthes crabs, especially the number of spines on the anterior margin of the carpus of the chelipeds, which are an important basis for evolution and classfication. The tree is made from the morphological characters is put more weight by us to the numbers of spines on the anterior margin of the carpus of the chelipeds, and the presence or not of the spines of the outline of the chelipeds. And we can get the same resuit as the molecular phylogenetical tree. This provides an evidence to the situation that molecular phylogeny will present to the morphological character, and some of the characters are more important to the molecular evolution. The phylogeny relationship of porcelain crabs of the west and east Pacific donât be separated by the Pacific. But the primary phylogenetic relationship still present to the morphological characters. The group T is some species that evolve rapidly with the environment at the later evolution phase. The mitochondrial DNA of Petrolisthes has been sequencing two third of all and compared with the 5 previously studied species ï¼Limulus polyphemusãArtemia franciscanaãDaphnia pulexãPenaeus mondonãPagurus longicarpusï¼in the class Crustacean. The results reveal that the genome of Petrolisthes is arranged most like that of the hermit crab Pagurus, suggesting they may share an ancestral phenotype. However, the start and terminal codon of Petrolisthes show a unusual similarity to that of Penaeus, the phylogenetic result of the sequence of the protein coding genes support the classification to the anomura conclude the Pagurus and Petrolisthes, and there are high bootstrap values more than 84 with the clade of Pagurus and Petrolisthes in the neighbor-joining method tree and maximum parsimony tree. These analysis showed encourage much needed research and discussion about the relationship between anomura, brachyura and macrura, of the order Decapoda.

▼ The Pacific Northwest has a relatively low diversity of primary freshwater fishes with most of the endemism and diversity in the Columbia River and Klamath River. However, the Oregon Coastal Subprovince defined as the coastal rivers from Miami River in the north to Sixes River in the south, has a relatively diverse primary freshwater fish fauna, and, potentially unrecognized endemism. The species diversity and endemism of these systems is not clear because their taxa are allopatric members of more wide ranging taxa with some recognized as distinct species while others are not. The presence of primary freshwater fishes in the Oregon Coastal Subprovince has been explained as either due to their origin in the coastal river systems or dispersal to coastal rivers from the Willamette River. The goals of this study were: 1) to describe fishes in the genera Catostomus and Ptychocheilus in the Oregon Coastal Subprovince using morphological data and mitochondrial cytochrome b sequences; 2) to investigate the relationships of fishes in the Oregon Coastal Subprovince to nearby provinces; and 3) to address competing distribution theories. In this study, I re-described C. tsiltcoosensis, C. macrocheilus, C. rimiculus, P. umpquae and P. oregonensis and recognized C. sp A (Coquille River) and C. sp. B (Rogue River). Catostomus tsiltcoosensis and C. sp. A tend to have higher counts of infraorbital pores and fewer dorsal fin rays than C. macrocheilus. Catostomus tsiltcoosensis had six fixed base pair differences from C. macrocheilus. Catostomus sp. A had 14 fixed base pair differences in cytochrome b from C. macrocheilus and C. tsiltcoosensis and had a narrower body width at base of the pectoral fin than C. tsiltcoosensis. In the cytochrome b phylogeny, C. macrocheilus (Columbia) was sister to C. tsiltcoosensis (Siuslaw River, Umpqua River and Coos River) and C. sp. A (Coquille River) was sister to C. macrocheilus and C. tsiltcoosensis plus C. columbianus and C. tahoensis. The Rogue River C. sp B was recognized as a separate species from C. rimiculus because it had higher counts of vertebrae anterior to the dorsal fin and had nine fixed base pair differences from C. rimiculus. Although Catostomus sp. B was previously placed in C. rimiculus, phylogenetic analysis showed C. rimiculus was more closely related to other catostomids in the Klamath Basin than to C. sp. B. This was likely caused by hybridization among four different species of suckers in the Klamath system. Ptychocheilus oregonensis tended to have fewer scales around the caudal peduncle, fewer scales above the lateral line, fewer transverse scales, deeper body depth at the origin of the dorsal fin, and shallower caudal peduncle than P. umpquae. Ptychocheilus umpquae had 15 fixed base pair differences from P. oregonensis. Based on phylogenetic analysis, P. oregonensis (Columbia - Willamette River) was sister to the P. umpquae (Siuslaw and Umpqua) and P. grandis (Sacramento) was sister to both.

▼ Plastid DNA restriction site and rearrangement mutations were used to study phylogenetic relationships among hard pines (subgenus Pinus). Total genomic DNA was cut with 19 restriction enzymes, blotted, and then probed mostly with 80% of the Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) chioroplast genome (cpDNA) {initial study, using only 6bp recognition enzymes}; or, clones encompassing the entire chloroplast genome of Pinus contorta (Lidholm and Gustafsson 1991) {final study, using only 4bp recognition enzymes}. A total of 202 mutations were recognized, 116 of which were phylogenetically informative, and subjected to Wagner and Dollo bootstrap analyses. A number of clades were distinguished at the 95's significance level or above, revealing some important differences relative to the widely recognized taxonomy of Little and Critchfield (1969). The divisional differences are: 1) movement of subsection Sylvestres into the same monophyletic dade as other Old World subsections (Pineae, Canariensis), subsection Sabiananae monophyletic with subsection Ponderosae, subsection Leiophylla in same monophyletic dade as subsection Oocarpae, and, P. radiata in its own monotypic dade separate from subsection Oocarpae. Species reassignments include: P. teocote from subsection Ponderosae into Oocarpae dade, and, P. halepensis from subsection Sylvestres to be grouped monophyletically with P. pinea. Next, the 197 site mutations were used to calculate percent sequence divergence among the species studied. Only results from the final study were discussed in detail, since the data from the initial study were problematic. Overall rates of cpDNA evolution (1-2x10-10) in hard pines were approximately an order of magnitude lower than the value for angiosperms, but similar to values found in another long-lived woody plant taxa, Palms. Subsection Pineae {P. halepensis P. pinea} is hypothesized to be ancestral to the subgenus, arising sometime during the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous; while a Contortae-like progenitor is judged to be ancestral to New World taxa. In general, the divergence values give extensive insight into how major geological events shaped hard pine phylogeny. Compared to prior work, the use of restriction enzymes recognizing shorter sequences, thus more frequently cutting, coupled with smaller, more homologous, probes have greatly increased resolution of the molecular phylogeny among hard pines. Future work in hard pine phylogeny should include more species, and the same probe-enzyme combinations, so that direct inferences can be made, while similar methods could be used to define relationships among the soft (subgenus Strobus) pines as well as other conifers. In any case, future studies should attempt to obtain data in the form of concise mutations, and be expanded to include data from the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Also, chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) restriction maps were constructed for three hard (subgenus Pinus) pines: L inea, P. sylvestres, and P. ponderosa; and compared with all other published Pinaceae cpDNA… Advisors/Committee Members: Liston, Aaron (advisor).

▼ As the number of sequenced genomes increases rapidly, new approaches are needed for the computational annotation of protein functions and to better understand the ecological roles of genomes. In this thesis, a gene clustering approach based on the correlated evolution method (Pagel) and hierarchical clustering is proposed to find sets of co-occurring genes according to their weighted phylogenetic profiles. Hierarchical clusters can be cut at many different levels of similarity; since our primary interest is the evaluation of functional associations, we used the semantic similarity of Gene Ontology terms to optimize the choice of cuts in the hierarchy, and to evaluate our clustering outcomes. The results can be used to predict the functions of the unannotated genes and to discover candidate sets of lateral gene transfer events. We applied this approach to the gene set of the large clostridial genome “Lachnospiraceae bacterium 3-1-57FAA-CT1”, and generated informative clusters of genes with correlated evolutionary histories, which in many cases shared functional similarity as well. We compared the results of our method to the recently described approach, Clustering by Inferred Modules of Evolution (CLIME), and found considerable similarity between the two sets of predictions. However, our hierarchical clustering approach allows the exploration of degrees of protein similarity, and the generation of smaller or larger clusters as appropriate. In both cases, we found strong evidence that clusters of genes having similar phylogenetic histories also tend to be functionally linked.

▼ Recent discoveries demonstrate that Campanian dinosaur assemblages across the western North American subcontinent (Laramidia) exhibit basin-scale endemism, with each sedimentary basin possessing its own unique assemblage, and an apparent higher-level biogeographic boundary between northern and southern Laramidia. Subsequently, during the Maastrichtian, most taxa are present in multiple basins, with some forms supporting the presence of distinct northern/southern provinces, whereas others are more cosmopolitan. Despite these dinosaur biogeographic data, little attention has been paid to other vertebrate groups. To test these biogeographic hypotheses, I examined the alpha taxonomy, evolution, and paleobiogeography of the paracryptodiran turtle clade Baenidae using a newly-generated species-level phylogeny. Baenids were one of the most diverse and abundant turtle clades during the Late Cretaceous, are restricted to North America, and have a well-sampled fossil record, making them an ideal study system for examining Laramidian biogeography.I first assessed the taxonomic affinities of newly discovered baenid turtles from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Kaiparowits Formation of southern Utah. I found that at least five distinct baenid species inhabited the Kaiparowits Basin during the Campanian. These taxa include Denazinemys nodosa, previously known from Texas and New Mexico, Boremys grandis, previously known from New Mexico only, and three newivtaxa that appear to have been endemic to southern Utah. These newly described taxa include two new species of Neurankylus and a morphologically unique pig-nosed taxon. Using new morphologic data from the Kaiparowits specimens, I conducted a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis on the clade, utilizing 106 characters and 32 ingroup taxa.Based on occurrences alone, Campanian baenid assemblages display distinct northern and southern provinces with no taxonomic overlap. To investigate the evolutionary patterns of this biogeographic signal, I applied a dispersal-extinction-cladogenesis model to the strict consensus tree and three randomly selected most parsimonious trees from my phylogenetic analysis. This study reveals that the ancestral ranges for basal baenid branches were cosmopolitan across either Laramidia or all of North America. More derived baenids (i.e., subclade Baenodda) possessed ancestral ranges in the area of Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas, and the analysis reconstructs multiple individual lineages then dispersing to southern Laramidia and Alberta.

▼ The cordaiteans were a group of Carboniferous and Permian woody plants, which thrived in wetlands and thrived in wetlands and terra firma habitats. Cordaitean cones from wetland habitats are exquisitely well preserved and contain a suit of characters that make their fossils prime candidates for cladistic analysis; historically, there are more male cones than female cone. Cordaitean morphological characteristics make this clade a possible precursor lineage of modern conifer and gnetalean lineages. However, the exact relation between fossil seed-plant clades and modern gymnosperm groups remains enigmatic. The resent discovery of a bisexual cordaitean cone calls into question the relationship between cordaiteans, gnetaleans and angiosperms. This study performs three cladistics analyses in order to find the relations of taxa within the cordaitean clade and other early plant lineages using primarily PAUP* and TNT. An analysis of male only cones provides a phylogram for the relations between the corditean taxa; the results also suggest a bisexual ancestry for the clade. A second analysis attempted to introduce the morphologically distinct female cones; the results produce a similar strict consensus tree. However, many of the female cones do not pair with their associated male cones indentified in ‘whole-plant’ reconstructions of cordaitean lineages. Instead, female cones formed separate linages. A final analysis incorporated other plant lineages and assigned traits associated with seeds and pollen to both male and female cones. The results support an early bisexual ancestry to the cordaiteans, and suggests that the cordaiteans are a polyphylecit clade, which gave rise to the voltzialean-conifer lineage. Including more fossil taxa lineages may prove useful, as well as establishing other criteria to compare characters to taxa in cladistics analysis.

▼ Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye'de bulunan Petrosimonia Bunge (Amaranthaceae) türlerinin morfolojik, karyolojik ve moleküler filogenetik metodlar kullanılarak revizyonunun yapılmasıdır. Morfolojik çalışmalarda hem arazi çalışmalarıyla toplanan materyaller hem de herbaryum örnekleri kullanılmıştır. Taksonlar için diagnostik karakterler belirlenmiş ve morfometrik ölçümler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Morfolojik incelemeler sonucunda Türkiye'de Petrosimonia cinsine ait toplam 4 türün varlığı teyit edilmiştir. Karyolojik çalışmalarda arazi çalışmalarıyla toplanan tohum örnekleri çimlendirilmiş ve kök uçlarından kromozom sayımı yapılmış ve görüntülenmiştir. Karyolojik çalışmalar sonucunda taksonların temel kromozom sayısının (x) türe bağlı olarak 7 ile 8 arasında değiştiği, tamamının diploid (2n) sitotipte olduğu belirlenmiş ve hiçbir taksonda poliploidiye rastlanmamıştır. Moleküler filogenetik araştırmalar için yaprak örneklerinin kloroplast genomunun kodlanmayan atpB-rbcL genler arası bölgesi çalışılmıştır. Analizler Maksimum Likelihood, Maksimum Parsimoni ve Bayesian metodları ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Dış grup olarak Ofaiston monandrum tanımlanmıştır. Moleküler verinin incelenmesi sonucunda Petrosimonia cinsinin monofiletik bir grup olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bir sonraki çalışmalar için protein kodlayan bir gen bölgesinin çalışılmasını ve elde etmiş olduğumuz veriyle karşılaştırılmasını öneriyoruz. The aim of this study is to do the revision of Petrosimonia Bunge (Amaranthaceae) found in Turkey by using morphological, karyological and molecular phylogenetic methods. In morphological studies herbarium specimens and samples collected by field studies were used. Diagnostic characters were determined for taxa and morphometric measurements were performed. Morphological analysis showed the presence of 4 taxa belonging to the genus Petrosimonia in Turkey. Seed samples collected by field studies were germinated for karyological studies and chromosomes were counted and visualized. As a result of the karyological studies, the basic chromosome number (x) of the taxa ranged from 7 to 8 depending on the species and all species were diploid (2n) cytotypes. For the molecular phylogenetic research, the non-coding atpB-rbcL intergenic region of the chloroplast genome were studied. Analyzes were performed with Maximum Likelihood, Maximum Parsimony and Bayesian methods. Ofaiston monandrum were determineted as an out-group. As a result of the molecular phylogenetic analyzing, Petrosimonia was determined a monophyletic group. In the next studies, we recommend that studying a protein-encoding gene region and comparing it with the data we have obtained. Advisors/Committee Members: Yaprak, Ahmet Emre (advisor).

▼ Ramaria is a genus of epigeous fungi common to the coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwest of North America. The extensively branched basidiocarps and the positive chemical reaction of the context in ferric sulfate are distinguishing characteristics of the genus. The genus is estimated to contain between 200-300 species and is divided into four subgenera, i.) R. subgenus Ramaria, ii.) R. subgenus Laeticolora, iii.) R. subgenus Lentoramaria and iv.) R. subgenus Echinoramaria, according to macroscopic, microscopic and macrochemical characters. The systematics of Ramaria is problematic and confounded by intraspecific and possibly ontogenetic variation in several morphological traits. To test generic and intrageneric taxonomic classifications, two gene regions were sequenced and subjected to maximum parsimony analyses. The nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA (nuc LSU rDNA) was used to test and refine generic, subgeneric and selected species concepts of Ramaria and the mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal DNA (mt SSU rDNA) was used as an independent locus to test the monophyly of Ramaria. Cladistic analyses of both loci indicated that Ramaria is paraphyletic due to several non-ramarioid taxa nested within the genus including Clavariadelphus, Gautieria, Gomphus and Kavinia. In the nuc LSU rDNA analyses, R. subgenus Ramaria species formed a monophyletic Glade and were indicated for the first time to be a sister group to Gautieria. Ramaria subgenus Ramaria and Gautieria were derived from R. subgenus Laeticolora, which formed a paraphyletic grade that included Gomphus. Ramaria subgenus Lentoramaria species also formed a paraphyletic grade in the nuc LSU rDNA analyses. The Phallales and Clavariadelphus were indicated as sister taxa to the R. stricta complex and Kavinia and R. abietina of R. subgenus Echinoramaria grouped with the basal species, R. pinicola, of R. subgenus Lentoramaria. In the mt SSU rDNA analyses, Gautieria and Gomphus again nested within Ramaria; however, the Phallales were indicated as a sister taxon to the Gomphales. A single evolutionary origin of the terrestrial habit was inferred for Ramaria with the terrestrial species, R. rainierensis, bridging the gap between the lignicolous R. subgenus Lentoramaria and the terrestrial R. subgenus Laeticolora. Species concepts tested included R. amyloidea and R. celerivirescens both of R. subgenus Laeticolora that differ primarily in the presence of clamp connections. The results supported these two taxa as distinct, sister species. These analyses were consistent with the ramarioid morphology as ancestral for the Gomphales with unique derivations of the club, false truffle and gomphoid morphologies.

▼ Historical concepts of Clavicipitaceae have included a broad range of species that display diverse morphologies, ecological modes and host associations. When subjected to multigene phylogenetic investigation of evolutionary history, the family was found to be polyphyletic, largely driven by diversity in the genus Cordyceps, previously containing over 400 taxa. The majority of Cordyceps sensu lato now resides in the families Cordycipitaceae, for which the genus Cordyceps has been retained owing to the placement of the type C. militaris, and the genera Ophiocordyceps and Elaphocordyceps in Ophiocordycipitaceae. The genus Metacordyceps was defined for species of Cordyceps remaining in Clavicipitaceae sensu stricto and contains relatively few species owing to convergent morphologies. Clavicipitaceae remains considerably diverse and its members attack hosts across three kingdoms of life, including insects and rotifers, plants and other fungi. There remains a significant number of Cordyceps species for which molecular or morphological data are insufficient, and are therefore considered incertae sedis with regards to family until new material is available for examination. This work expands the sampling of taxa in Clavicipitaceae sensu lato for inclusion in phylogenetic reconstruction, with particular emphasis on residual species of Cordyceps. The resulting phylogenies were then used to refine concepts morphological features that define boundaries between taxa and explore the evolution of host association, morphology and ecology with ancestral character-state reconstruction. Taxon sampling was increased by extensive field collections and collaborations with other researchers. The diversity present in newly acquired specimens represents all three pathogen groups. The inclusion of these taxa in a five-gene dataset (nrSSU, nrLSU, TEF, RPB1, RPB2) advances understanding of systematic relationships within Clavicipitaceae. Molecular data supports the movement of seven species from Cordyceps sensu lato to Metacordyceps, doubling the number of species known for the genus. The addition of new species reveals significant structure within the genus and allows for a reevaluation and strengthening of morphological concepts attributed to the genus. A clade of species sister to Clavicipitaceae was identified as Veterocordyceps gen. nov. This finding provides clarity to the results of previous workers who considered species in the genus as members of Ophiocordyceps based on morphological data and a more limited molecular dataset. Cordyceps fratricida, a pathogen of ergot, and the rice pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens were placed phylogenetically within Clavicipitaceae. The genus Tyrranocordyceps gen. nov. was established for fungal pathogens that attack closely related species of ergot. Tyrranocordyceps represents a sexual state for a clade of fungal pathogens known only from asexual states. Ustilaginoidea virens was found to occupy a separate lineage of plant pathogens, representing a third clade of clavicipitaceous fungi deriving their… Advisors/Committee Members: Spatafora, Joseph W.
