The mitochondrial genome of the long-billed plover, Charadrius placidus (Charadriiformes: Charadriidae).

ABSTRACT: The present study provides the first full mitochondrial genome sequence of a long-billed plover from South Korea. This mitogenome is 16,895?bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal-RNA genes, 22 transfer-RNA genes, and a non-coding control region. Overall, base composition was: A, 31.4%; C, 31.1%; G, 13.8%; and T, 23.8%. A frameshift mutation in the ND3 gene was identified and a tandem repeat (AACA) was observed in the D-loop region. The phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated coding genes indicated Charadriidae's monophyly. These results contribute to further understanding of long-billed plover phylogenetic relationships and species identification.

The complete mitochondrial genome of grey plover Pluvialis squatarola (Charadriiformes, charadriidae).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of grey plover Pluvialis squatarola was obtained by next-generation sequencing. The circular genome was 16,860 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The overall nucleotide composition was A: 30.9%, T: 23.4%, C: 31.6%, G: 14.1%. Nine genes were encoded on the light strand, and the remaining 28 genes were encoded on the heavy strand. Most of the PCGs began with the ATG as the start codon, and four kinds of termination codons were used in this mitogenome. This study improves our understanding of the mitogenomic characteristics and its phylogenetic relationships within Charadriiformes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Pacific golden plover Pluvialis fulva (Charadriiformes, charadriidae).

Project description:Pacific golden plover Pluvialis fulva (Charadriiformes, Scolopacidae) is obligate long-distance migrant bird breeding from northernmost Asia into western Alaska, and wintering on islands in the Pacific Ocean and Australia. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of P. fulva, which is a circular molecule of 16,854?bp in size and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a control region. The A?+?T content of the overall base of the composition of H-strand is 54.88% (A: 31.48%, T: 23.40%, C: 31.48%, and G: 13.65%). It is very interesting that there are some insertions/deletions in the cytb gene sequence (total of 10bp deletions and 5bp insertions in four positions), which may result in reading frame shift and/or internal stops. Some short microsatellite-like repeat regions (ACCACCC) are scatter in the control region. The phylogenetic analysis resolved a well-supported clade of Charadriiformes in which Pluvialis appears to be sister group of Vanellus. This mitogenome provides a valuable resource for further study of molecular systematics, species identification, population genetics, phylogeography, and conservation genetics of Charadriiformes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Lesser Sand-Plover Charadrius mongolus atrifrons and its phylogenetic position.

Project description:The Lesser Sand-Plover (Charadrius mongolus atrifrons) is a small shorebird in Charadriiformes. Here we assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of C. m. atrifrons (Aves: Charadriiformes) which is 16,919 bp in length and consisting of 13 protein-coding (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA, 22 transfer RNA and 1 control region. The overall A + T content of was 55.5%. The Maximum Likelihood (ML) tree based on the 12 concatenated mitochondrial protein-coding genes (except ND6 gene) placed C. m. atrifrons in a clade with C. alexandrines but separate from C. vociferus.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Haematopus ostralegus (Charadriiformes: Haematopodidae).

Project description:The Eurasian oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus), Near Threatened in the IUCN red list, was designated classified endangered species II by the Ministry of Environment of Korea and a Natural Monument (No. 326) by the Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (16,798?bp) of H. ostralegus was determined for the first time, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 non-coding region. The overall base composition was A (31.4%), C (31.3%), G (13.8%), and T (23.5%), so the percentage of A and T (54.9%) was slightly higher than that of G and C. A phylogenetic analysis using concatenated mitogenomes revealed that the family Haematopodidae has a closer relationship with the family Recurvirostridae and H. ostralegus and H. ater clustered together. The results are expected to provide useful resources for species identification and further phylogenetic studies of genus Haematopus.

The enigmatic monotypic crab plover Dromas ardeola is closely related to pratincoles and coursers (Aves, Charadriiformes, Glareolidae).

Project description:The phylogenetic placement of the monotypic crab plover Dromasardeola (Aves, Charadriiformes) remains controversial. Phylogenetic analysis of anatomical and behavioral traits using phenetic and cladistic methods of tree inference have resulted in conflicting tree topologies, suggesting a close association of Dromas to members of different suborders and lineages within Charadriiformes. Here, we revisited the issue by applying Bayesian and parsimony methods of tree inference to 2,012 anatomical and 5,183 molecular characters to a set of 22 shorebird genera (including Turnix). Our results suggest that Bayesian analysis of anatomical characters does not resolve the phylogenetic relationship of shorebirds with strong statistical support. In contrast, Bayesian and parsimony tree inference from molecular data provided much stronger support for the phylogenetic relationships within shorebirds, and support a sister relationship of Dromas to Glareolidae (pratincoles and coursers), in agreement with previously published DNA-DNA hybridization studies.

The influence of a hot environment on parental cooperation of a ground-nesting shorebird, the Kentish plover Charadrius alexandrinus.

Project description:BackgroundParental care often increases offspring survival, but is costly to the parents. A trade-off between the cost and benefit of care is expected, so that when care provisioning by both parents is essential for the success of young, for instance in extremely cold or hot environments, the parents should rear their young together. We investigated the latter hypothesis in a ground nesting shorebird, the Kentish plover Charadrius alexandrinus in an extremely hot environment, the Arabian Desert. Midday ground temperature was often above 50 degrees C in our study site in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), thus leaving the eggs unattended even for a few minute risks overheating and death of embryos.ResultsThrough the use of video surveillance systems we recorded incubation routines of male and female Kentish plovers at 28 nests over a full day (24 h). We show that ambient temperature had a significant influence on incubation behaviour of both sexes, and the relationships are often non-linear. Coordinated incubation between parents was particularly strong in midday with incubation shared approximately equally between the male and the female. The enhanced biparental incubation was due to males increasing their nest attendance with ambient temperature.ConclusionsOur results suggest biparental care is essential during incubation in the Kentish plover in extremely hot environments. Shared incubation may also help the parents to cope with heat stress themselves: they can relieve each other frequently from incubation duties. We suggest that once the eggs have hatched the risks associated with hot temperature are reduced: the chicks become mobile, and they gradually develop thermoregulation. When biparental care of young is no longer essential one parent may desert the family. The relaxed demand of the offspring may contribute to the diverse breeding systems exhibited by many shorebirds.
