生物学性状既可用于分类又可用于系统发育,但征募性状兼备是一个好主意吗?我们通过将它们映射到一个强大的多位点分子系统发育,探索哥斯达黎加异螺旋体黄蜂(拟寄生蜂科的一个高度多样化谱系)的分类诊断特征的进化。我们发现,一个字符经历的进化变化的数量与字符在交互识别关键上下文中的广泛用途之间存在着强烈的正相关关系——例如,字符状态在分类群中的分布有多均匀。快速性状对物种鉴定最有用的这一实证发现支持了这样一种观点,即为分类诊断而设计的性状在系统发育分析中可能表现不佳——或者具有积极的误导作用。
Biological characters can be employed for both taxonomy and phylogenetics, but is conscripting characters for double duty a good idea? We explore the evolution of characters designed for taxonomic diagnosis in Costa Rican heterospiline wasps, a hyperdiverse lineage of parasitoid Braconidae, by mapping them to a robust multi-locus molecular phylogeny. We discover a strong positive relationship between the amount of evolutionary change a character undergoes and how broadly useful the characters are in the context of an interactive identification key- e.g., how evenly the character states are distributed among taxa. The empirical finding that fast characters are the most useful for species identification supports the idea that characters designed for taxonomic diagnoses are likely to underperform- or be positively misleading- in phylogenetic analyses.
