BackgroundIn genusRhinolophus, species in theRhinolophus philippinensisandR. macrotisgroups are unique because the horseshoe bats in these group have relatively low echolocation frequencies and flight speeds compared with other horseshoe bats with similar body size. The different characteristics among bat species suggest particular evolutionary processes may have occurred in this genus. To study the adaptive evidence in the mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of rhinolophids, especially the mitogenomes of the species with low echolocation frequencies, we sequenced eight mitogenomes and used them for comparative studies of molecular phylogeny and adaptive evolution.ResultsPhylogenetic analysis using whole mitogenome sequences produced robust results and provided phylogenetic signals that were better than those obtained using single genes. The results supported the recent establishment of the separatemacrotisgroup. The signals of adaptive evolution discovered in theRhinolophusspecies were tested for some of the codons in two genes (ND2andND6) that encode NADH dehydrogenases in oxidative phosphorylation system complex I. These genes have a background of widespread purifying selection. Signals of relaxed purifying selection and positive selection were found inND2andND6, respectively, based on codon models and physicochemical profiles of amino acid replacements. However, no pronounced overlap was found for non-synonymous sites in the mitogenomes of all the species with low echolocation frequencies. A signal of positive selection forND5was found in the branch-site model whenR. philippinensiswas set as the foreground branch.ConclusionsThe mitogenomes provided robust phylogenetic signals that were much more informative than the signals obtained using single mitochondrial genes. Two mitochondrial genes that encoding proteins in the oxidative phosphorylation system showed some evidence of adaptive evolution in genusRhinolophusand the positive selection signals were tested forND5inR. philippinensis. These results indicate that mitochondrial protein-coding genes were targets of adaptive evolution during the evolution ofRhinolophusspecies, which might have contributed to a diverse range of acoustic adaptations in this genus.
