Genomics of extreme ecological specialists: multiple convergent evolution but no genetic divergence between ecotypes of Maculinea alcon butterflies

<p>Biotic interactions are often acknowledged as catalysers of genetic divergence and eventual explanation of processes driving species richness. We address the question, whether extreme ecological specialization is always associated with lineage sorting, by analysing polymorphisms in morphologically similar ecotypes of the myrmecophilous butterfly <em>Maculinea alcon</em>. The ecotypes occur in either hygric or xeric habitats, use different larval host plants and ant species, but no significant distinctive molecular traits have been revealed so far. We apply genome-wide RAD-sequencing to specimens originating from both habitats across Europe in order to get a view of the potential evolutionary processes at work. Our results confirm that genetic variation is mainly structured geographically but not ecologically — specimens from close localities are more related to each other than populations of each ecotype from distant localities. However, we found two loci for which the association with xeric versus hygric habitats is supported by segregating alleles, suggesting convergent evolution of habitat preference. Thus, ecological divergence between the forms probably does not represent an early stage of speciation, but may result from independent recurring adaptations involving few genes. We discuss the implications of these results for conservation and suggest preserving biotic interactions and main genetic clusters.</p>

[15] (figure 2; by permission from John Wiley &amp; Sons, licence 5458310335802) and [9] (electronic supplementary material, figure S3b, by permission from Andrew D. Foote). Black branches in (a) lead to haplotypes that are from animals that have not been identified to ecotype (see electronic supplementary material, table S1 from [15]).

Figure 1 in Revised taxonomy of eastern North Pacific killer whales ( Orcinus orca ): Bigg's and resident ecotypes deserve species status

Figure 1. Expected range maps for (a) resident and (b) Bigg's killer whales, including locations of samples used for mitogenome analysis (figure 5a, resident n = 106, Bigg's n = 93) [15]. Distribution ranges have been inferred based on published identifications of individuals that are identified by ecotype [48–53]. Sample distributions cover the known ranges of both ecotypes, with the exception of residents of Oregon and northern California, and both ecotypes off northern Japan (Hokkaido) in the western Pacific [48,54]. Sample maps for microsatellite data are in electronic supplementary material, figure S2.
