Molecular adaptation and convergent evolution of frugivory in Old World and New World fruit bats
<p>Repeated adaptations to the same dietary niche in different lineages are a hallmark in mammalian ecology. Molecular evolutionary analysis is powerful to dissect the evolutionary history of dietary adaptations based on the knowledge of gene functions. Here we used genome-wide analyses of molecular evolution to examine two lineages of bats that have independently evolved obligate frugivory: the Old World family Pteropodidae and the New World subfamily Stenodermatinae, although ancestral bats were insectivorous. We report novel genome sequences of two New World fruit bats (<i>Artibeus jamaicensis</i> and <i>Sturnira hondurensis</i>), which together provide a framework for comparisons with Old World fruit bats. Comparative genomics of 10 bat species, which have diverse diets across their phylogeny, revealed a number of convergent molecular signatures underlying evolutionary adaptations to obligate frugivory. We identified three subfamilies of olfactory receptor genes, losses of three bitter taste receptor genes, losses of two digestive enzyme genes, and convergent amino acid substitutions in several metabolic genes that are specifically linked to frugivory. This study provides an excellent model to explore molecular adaptations contributing to convergent evolution of obligate frugivory, and will facilitate future studies of ecological adaptations in mammals.</p>

Figure 7 Map with new records of D. youngii and N. lanatus for Honduras. None of the previous records (except D. youngii) have exact coordinates, however, we shaded the municipality on each department in which they were recorded. The blue shaded area indicates the localities of N. lanatus captured in the municipality of Zamorano (municipality of San Antonio de Oriente) in the department of Francisco Morazán in central Honduras, and in La Cueva del Viejo in the department of La Paz in western Honduras. The big yellow-shaded area refers to two localities in which L. yerbabuenae was recorded in the municipality of Nacaome in the department of Valle in southern Honduras by Lee and Bradley (1992) and R. D. Bradley in 1991 (GBIF.org 2019). The small brown-shaded areas in southern Honduras refer to the localities in which M. Sandiford reported one L. yerbabuenae from the municipality of Santa Ana de Yusguare in the department of Choluteca (GBIF.org 2019). Finally, the purple point refers to the exact location of D. youngii recorded in the department of Colón in northeastern Honduras. Abbreviations as follows: La Paz (LP), Nacaome (NC), San Antonio de Oriente (SAO), and Santa Ana de Yusguare (SAY). There is no specific area highlighted in La Paz because there are several caves known as Cueva del Viejo.
