| Abstract |
Across boundary currents, zooplankton are subject to strong oceanographic gradients and hence strong selective pressures. How such gradients interact with the speciation process of pelagic organisms is still poorly understood in the open ocean realm. Here we report on genetic diversity within the pelagic copepod Pleuromamma abdominalis in the poorly known Southeast Pacific region, with samples spanning an ocean gradient from coastal upwelling to the oligotrophic South Pacific Subtropical Gyre. We assessed variation in fragments of the mitochondrial (mt) genes cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and Cytochrome b as well as in the nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and 28 S rRNA. Phylogenetic analyses revealed the presence of 8 divergent lineages occurring across the gradient with genetic distances in the range of 0.036 and 0.44 (mt genes), and GMYC species delimitation methods support their inference as distinct (undescribed) species. Genetic lineages occurring across the zonal gradient showed strong genetic structuring, with the presence of at least two new lineages within the coastal upwelling zone, revealing an unexpectedly high level of endemism within the Humboldt Current System. Multivariate analyses found strong correlation between genetic variation and surface chlorophyll-a and salinity, suggesting an important role for hydrographic gradients in maintaining genetic diversity. However, the presence of cryptic lineages within the upwelling zone cannot be easily accounted for by environmental heterogeneity and poses challenging questions for understanding the speciation process for oceanic zooplankton. |
