Systematics of New World monkeys (Platyrrhini, Primates) based on 16S mitochondrial DNA sequences: a comparative analysis of different weighting methods in cladistic analysis.

Abstract:

:In order to investigate the effects of different weighting methods on a phylogeny reconstruction based on DNA sequences and to evaluate the phylogenetic information content of various secondary structures, a fragment of the large ribosomal mitochondrial gene (16S) was sequenced from 13 species of New World monkeys, three species of catarrhines, and Tarsius. The data were analyzed cladistically without weighting characters or changes, and with different weighting methods: a priori differential weights for transitions and transversions, two variants of dynamic weighting for each kind and direction of change, and successive approximations, using both the character consistency index (CI) and the rescaled consistency index (RC). The results were compared with published trees constructed from nuclear sequences of E-globins and morphological characters by different authors. The result of the analysis of the mtDNA data set with successive approximations, using the RC as weighting function, was the closest to the topology on which all molecular and morphological trees concur. Other relationships were unique to this tree. "Loops" were the type of secondary structure that showed maximum variation in sequence length and sites with the lowest character CI and RC. A large number of sites within loops showed high values for these indices, however, which suggests that uniform downweighting of these regions represents a large loss of phylogenetic information. Successive weighting, which assigns a weight for each particular character, seems to be a desirable alternative to this practice. We propose a new variant of dynamic weighting, which we call homoplasy-correcting dynamic weighting, that like dynamic weighting, is applicable to any kind of sequence, coding or noncoding.
