Nonetheless, discrimination of closely related taxa is still highly controversial in scleractinian coral research. Here we used newly sequenced complete mitochondrial genomes and 30 microsatellites to define the genetic divergence between two closely related azooxanthellate taxa of the family Caryophylliidae: solitary <i>Desmophyllum dianthus</i> and colonial <i>Lophelia pertusa</i>.ResultsIn the mitochondrial control region, an astonishing 99.8 % of nucleotides between <i>L. pertusa</i> and <i>D. dianthus</i> were identical. Variability of the mitochondrial genomes of the two species is represented by only 12 non-synonymous out of 19 total nucleotide substitutions. Microsatellite sequence (37 loci) analysis of <i>L. pertusa</i> and <i>D. dianthus</i> showed genetic similarity is about 97 %. Our results also indicated that <i>L. pertusa</i> and <i>D. dianthus</i> show high skeletal plasticity in corallum shape and similarity in skeletal ontogeny, micromorphological (septal and wall granulations) and microstructural characters (arrangement of rapid accretion deposits, thickening deposits).ConclusionsMolecularly and morphologically, the solitary <i>Desmophyllum</i> and the dendroid <i>Lophelia</i> appear to be significantly more similar to each other than other unambiguous coral genera analysed to date. This consequently leads to ascribe both taxa under the generic name <i>Desmophyllum</i> (priority by date of publication). Findings of this study demonstrate that coloniality may not be a robust taxonomic character in scleractinian corals.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Merging scleractinian genera: the overwhelming genetic similarity between solitary <i>Desmophyllum</i> and colonial <i>Lophelia</i>","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Mitochondrial genome; Microsatellites; Genetic divergence; Skeletalplasticity; Desmophyllum dianthus; Lophelia pertusa","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2016,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2016-10-18","DateCreate":"2016-10-09","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000375988600003","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1186/s12862-016-0654-8"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":280619,"PubliDate":2016,"Pagination":null,"XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"16","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":136230,"SerRR":"BMC Evolutionary Biology.
