Abstract
The tephritid fruit fly Zeugodacus tau (Walker) is a polyphagous fruit pest of economic importance in Asia. Studies based on genetic markers indicate that it forms a species complex. We report here (1) the complete mitogenome of Z. tau from Malaysia and comparison with that of China as well as the mitogenome of other congeners, and (2) the relationship of Z. tau taxa from different geographical regions based on sequences of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene. The complete mitogenome of Z. tau had a total length of 15631 bp for the Malaysian specimen (ZT3) and 15835 bp for the China specimen (ZT1), with similar gene order comprising 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes—PCGs, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) and a non-coding A + T-rich control region (D-loop). Based on 13 PCGs and 15 mt-genes, Z. tau NC_027290 (China) and Z. tau ZT1 (China) formed a sister group in the lineage containing also Z. tau ZT3 (Malaysia). Phylogenetic analysis based on partial sequences of cox1 gene indicates that the taxa from China, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, and Z. tau sp. A from Thailand belong to Z. tau sensu stricto. A complete cox1 gene (or 13 PCGs or 15 mt-genes) instead of partial sequence is more appropriate for determining phylogenetic relationship.

Introduction
Zeugodacus tau (Walker) is the most common tephritid fruit fly species of the genus Zeugodacus found in Southeast Asia [1]. It is among the economically important species belonging to the Dacinae subfamily, occurring from Pakistan to Philippines and south to Indonesia [2]. It is a polyphagous fruit pest, infesting host fruits of the families Anacardiaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Elaeocarpaceae, Moraceae, Myrtaceae, Oxalidaceae, Rutaceae, Sapotaceae, and Solanaceae [3–7]. The adult male flies are attracted to Cue lure.
Studies based on cytogenetics, partial sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox1) gene and allozymes have revealed that Z. tau (previously referred to as Bactrocera tau (Walker)) is a species complex comprising eight species (or morphs) in Thailand, with species A designated as Z. tau sensu stricto [8–10]. Z. tau A may be reliably separated from Z. tau B, C, D, E, F, G, and I by the heat shock protein 70 cognate gene Bthsc1 [11].
Phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial cox1 gene sequences revealed that the Z. tau population in Himachal Pradesh (India) is closely related to Z. tau sp. A from Thailand [12]. The overall genetic variability in this Indian taxon is substantial, with 10 different haplotypes detected in 16 individuals. A study of 23 Z. tau populations (Myanmar and western Yunnan; Laos and southern Yunnan; central Yunnan; Thailand; southern China, central China and northern Vietnam; and southwestern China), based on mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase gene (nad1), revealed six genetic groups corresponding to geographical characteristics, and strong genetic structure for the populations in western China, Thailand, and Laos [13]. Z. tau in China has also been reported to exhibit seven cytochrome b haplotypes (NCBI GenBank 26-JUL-2016: AY953491-AY953497).
To date, there is only a single report on the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Z. tau [14]. The taxon is from Shenzhen, China. We report here the complete mitogenome of Z. tau from Malaysia and compare it to that of China as well as the mitogenome of other congeners. We also carry out phylogenetic analysis using cox1 gene to determine the relationship of Z. tau taxa from different geographical regions.
Materials and methods
Specimen collection and mitochondrial DNA extraction
Male fruit flies of Z. tau were collected in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur– 3.1390°N, 101.6869°E) and China (Zhuhai, Guangdong– 22.2710°N, 113.5767°E) by means of Cue lure according to the method of Yong et al. [15]. The specimens were preserved in absolute ethanol and stored in -20°C freezer until use. Z. tau is an insect pest. It is not endangered or protected by law. No permits are required to study this fruit fly. The extraction of mitochondrial DNA was according to the method of Yong et al. [16].
Library preparation, genome sequencing and analysis
Sample and library preparation (using Nextera DNA Sample Preparation Kit), genome sequencing using the Illumina MiSeq Desktop Sequencer (2 × 150 bp paired-end reads) (Illumina, USA), and genome analysis were as described in Yong et al. [15–16]. The mitogenome sequences have been deposited in GenBank–accession number MF966383 (ZT1) and MF966384 (ZT3).
Mitogenomes and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences from GenBank
The complete mitogenomes of Tephritidae available from GenBank (Table 1) were used for phylogenetic comparison. Species of Drosophila–D. incompta Wheeler & Takada NC_025936 [17]; D. melanogaster Meigen NC_024511 (unpublished); and D. yakuba Burla NC_001322 [18]–were used as outgroup taxa. Representative cox1 sequences of Z. tau from different geographic regions were used for reconstruction of phylogenetic tree.
Phylogenetic analysis
Alignment of nucleotide sequences and reconstruction of phylograms based on 15 mt-genes and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequences followed that described in Yong et al. [26].
Results
Mitogenome features
The raw/final sequencing reads produced by next-generation sequencing on Illumina MiSeq Sequencer were 3286014/3205571 for Z. tau ZT3 (Malaysia) and 3191750/3113181 for Z. tau ZT1 (China).
The complete mitogenome of Z. tau had a total length of 15631 bp for the Malaysian specimen (ZT3) and 15835 bp for the China specimen (ZT1), with similar gene order comprising 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes—PCGs, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) and a non-coding A + T-rich control region (D-loop) (Table 2, Fig 1, S1 and S2 Tables). The control region was flanked by rrnS and trnI genes respectively, with 745 bp in Z. tau ZT3 and 946 bp in Z. tau ZT1. It contained a long polyT-stretch of 14 bp in Z. tau ZT3 and 19 bp in Z. tau ZT1. It also contained in both taxa a long poly A-stretch (20 bp) after 'ATAGA' motif.
GC skew is shown on the outer surface of the ring whereas GC content is shown on the inner surface. The anticodon of each tRNAs is shown in bracket.
NC_027290 (China), ZT1 (China), ZT3 (Malaysia).
There were 16 intergenic regions with spacing sequence and 9 regions with overlaps in both Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1. The region between trnR and trnN genes in both taxa was separated by the largest sequence of 34 bp. This sequence had clear stem-loop structures.
Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1 had identical start/stop codons for the 13 PCGs (Table 2, S1 and S2 Tables). Of the start codons, the commonest was ATG (in 6 PCGs–cox2, atp6, cox3, nad4, nad4l, cob), followed by four ATT (nad2, atp8, nad5, nad6), two ATA (nad3, nad1) and one TCG (cox1). Nine PCGs had a TAA stop codon (nad2, cox2, atp8, atp6, cox3, nad3, nad4, nad4l, nad6), one had TAG (cob), and three had truncated T stop codon (cox1, nad5, nad1).
The nucleotide compositions of the mitochondrial whole genome, protein-coding genes, rRNA genes and control region of Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1 are summarized in S3 and S4 Tables. Both were A+T rich as expected for mitochondrial genomes. The A + T content for PCGs was lowest in cox3 (64.8% for Z. tau ZT3, and 64.6% for Z. tau ZT1) and highest in nad4l (79.8% for Z. tau ZT3, and 80.1% for Z. tau ZT1). The A + T content of the non-coding control region was 83.5% for Z. tau ZT3 and 85.0% for Z. tau ZT1. For the two ribosomal operons, rrnL had a higher A + T content than rrnS (79.7% vs 74.7% for Z. tau ZT3, and 79.6% vs 74.6% for Z. tau ZT1). The GC skew content which included the whole genome, PCGs, rRNA genes and control region in the two taxa was negative indicating a bias toward the use of Cs over Gs. Although the AT skewness value was positive for the whole genome, rRNA genes and control region, it was variable in the individual PCGs.
As in other insects, the mitogenomes of Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1 had three main tRNA clusters: (1) I-Q-M; (2) W-C-Y; and (3) A-R-N-S1–E–F (Fig 1). The cloverleaf structure for the respective tRNAs was similar in Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1. The TψC-loop was absent in trnF while trnS1 lacked the DHU-loop (S1 and S2 Figs).
Phylogenetic relationship and genetic divergence
Fig 2 depicts the molecular phylogeny of Z. tau in relation to other congeners and other taxa of the Tephritidae based on 15 mt-genes (13 PCGs + 2 rRNA genes). The phylogram based on 13 PCGs was congruent with that based on 15 mt-genes. Most of the nodes were well-supported. Z. tau NC_027290 (China) and Z. tau ZT1 (China) formed a sister group in the lineage containing also Z. tau ZT3 (Malaysia). The genus Zeugodacus was monophyletic and formed a clade with Dacus longicornis.
Numeric values at the nodes are ML bootstrap or Bayesian posterior probabilities. The total nucleotide sequences of 15 mt-genes was 13,377 bp with AIC model = GTR+Gamma and BIC model = SYM+Gamma.
The phylogenetic relationship of some of the component taxa of genus Bactrocera was not congruent between ML and BI analyses (Fig 2). For example, ML analysis indicated B. melastomatos to be a member of the B. dorsalis complex, but in BI analysis it was basal to the other taxa of subgenus Bactrocera. Nonetheless, the genus Bactrocera was monophyletic.
Phylogenetic analysis based on partial cox1 sequences from bp 50–700 indicated that the Z. tau taxa from China, Bangladesh, India (Meghalaya, north of Bangladesh) and Malaysia formed a clade with several haplotypes (Fig 3). The uncorrected genetic distance ranged from 'p' = 0 to 'p' = 0.72% (S5 Table).
Numeric values at the nodes are Bayesian posterior probabilities/ML bootstrap.
Based on the partial cox1 sequence from bp 900–1500, the Z. tau taxa from India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Laos, China and Japan formed a clade with Z. tau sp. A from Thailand (Fig 4), with uncorrected genetic distance ranging from 'p' = 0% to 'p' = 1.39% (S6 Table). This clade was distinctly different from Z. tau sp. B, C, D, E, F, G, and I from Thailand, with uncorrected genetic distance ranging from 'p' = 9.03% to 'p' = 14.06% (S6 Table).
Numeric values at the nodes are Bayesian posterior probabilities/ML bootstrap.
Haplotype diversity and nucleotide diversity
Twelve haplotypes were revealed in the present 18 cox1 sequences (from bp 50–700) of Z. tau from four geographical regions (China, Malaysia, Bangladesh and India) (Fig 5). A common haplotype was found in China (3 sequences), Bangladesh (2 sequences) and India (1 sequence). The haplotype/gene diversity was 0.8954 ± 0.0653, and the nucleotide diversity was 0.0033 ± 0.0022.
Circles represent haplotypes and numbers within the circle represent individuals sharing the specific haplotype.
Sixteen haplotypes were revealed in the 22 cox1 sequences (from bp 900–1500) of Z. tau sensu stricto from six geographical regions (China, Laos, Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka, and Thailand sp. A) (Fig 6). A common haplotype was found in China (2 sequences), Japan (1 sequence), India (1 sequence) and Sri Lanka (1 sequence). Another haplotype was common to Malaysia (2 sequences) and India (1 sequence). The haplotype/gene diversity was 0.9437 ± 0.0372, and the nucleotide diversity was 0.0056 ± 0.0034. Z. tau sp. B, C, D, E, F, G and I from Thailand formed a distinct cluster from Z. tau sensu stricto, and each was represented by a distinct haplotype. The haplotypes of Z. tau F and Z. tau B had a small difference of 4 bp.
Circles represent haplotypes and numbers within the circle represent individuals sharing the specific haplotype.
Discussion
The genus Zeugodacus is represented by 52 named and some 19 unnamed species [31]. To date, the complete mitogenome has been reported for seven taxa–Z. caudatus Malaysia, Z. caudatus Indonesia, Z. cucurbitae, Z. depressus, Z. diaphorus, Z. scutellatus and Z. tau (China). Molecular studies indicate that Z. caudatus Malaysia and Z. caudatus Indonesia are sibling species [24,32], and Z. tau in Thailand consists of eight species [8–10].
The gene order of Z. tau mitogenome conforms to other Zeugodacus and other tephritid mitogenomes [15,20,24,25,28–30]. The mitogenome of Z. tau ZT3 (Malaysia) is shorter than that of Z. tau ZT1 (China) and Z. tau NC_027290 (China), while Z. tau ZT1 is longer than Z. tau NC_027290 (Table 2). The difference in the total size of the mitogenome is due mainly to the length of the control region– 745 bp for Z. tau ZT3, 946 bp for Z. tau ZT1 and 801 bp for Z. tau NC_027290 (Table 2).
There are differences in the spacing/overlap sequence in some intergenic regions among Z. tau mitogenomes: -1 bp in Z. tau NC_027290 between trnC and trnY versus 1 bp in Z. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1 (Table 2).
The difference in size of the nad1 gene (1020 bp in Z. tau NC_027290, and 940 bp in Z. tau ZT1 and Z. tau ZT3) and the stop codon (TAA in NC_027290 and incomplete T in ZT1 and ZT3) can be attributed to annotation of the intergenic space between trnS2 and nad1 genes (overlap of 65 bp in NC_027290 and spacing sequence of 15 bp in ZT3 and ZT1); this intergenic space is 15 bp in most of the Zeugodacus taxa. Incomplete stop codons have been reported in other taxa of tephritid fruit flies [15,20,24]. The incomplete stop codons can be converted to TAA by post-translational polyadenylation [33].
A long poly-A stretch of 20 bp is present in the control region after 'ATAGA' motif in the Malaysian and China taxa of Z. tau. In addition, a long poly-T stretch is present in the control region of Z. tau ZT3 (14 bp) and Z. tau ZT1 (19 bp); this poly-T stretch is not present in Z. tau NC_027290.
In both T. tau ZT3 and Z. tau ZT1, the TΨC-loop was absent in trnF while trnS1 lacked the DHU-loop (S1 and S2 Figs). The TΨC-loop and DHU-loop of tRNA act as special recognition site during protein biosynthesis or translation [34–36]. It has been reported that misacylation of tRNA can affect the survivability of an organism [36]. However, deviant tRNA secondary structures are frequent in Arthropoda [37].
The mitochondrial cox1 gene has been commonly used for differentiation of various taxa of Z. tau [9,12,38–46]. In the present study based on partial sequences of cox1 gene (Figs 3–6), the Z. tau taxa showed several haplotypes. The taxa from China, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Inida, and Sri Lanka were genetically similar to Z. tau sp. A from Thailand, with 'p' = 0–1.39% (S5 and S6 Tables). As Fuzhou (Foochow), Fujian, China is the type locality of Z. tau, the taxa from various geographical regions that grouped with those from China can be designated as Z. tau sensu stricto. Although many taxa had been included for comparison, none were similar to any of the Z. tau sp. B, C, D, E, F, G, and I reported from Thailand. Among the Z. tau taxa from Thailand, the genetic distance bewteen Z. tau F and Z. tau B was 'p' = 0.69% (S6 Table) with haplotype difference of 4 bp (Fig 6), indicating that these two taxa may be conspecific.
In the present study based on partial cox1 sequences, Z. tau ZT1 (China) and Z. tau NC_027290 (China) were not closely related to each other compared to Z. tau ZT3 (Malaysia) (Figs 3 and 4). This differs from their closer relationship based on complete cox1 gene (S3 Fig) and 15 mt-genes (Fig 2). A complete cox1 gene (or 13 PCGs or 15 mt-genes) instead of partial sequence is therefore more appropriate for determining phylogenetic relationship.
At the higher-level phylogeny, the phylogenetic analysis indicated that Anastrepha fraterculus (Tribe Toxotrypanini) of subfamily Trypetinae was grouped with Tribe Dacini of Dacinae, while Procecidochares utilis (Tribe Ceceidocharini) of subfamily Trypetinae was basal to the clade containing Dacinae and A. fraterculus (Fig 2). This discrepancy may be due to insufficient taxon sampling. A broader taxa sampling, particularly Trypetinae, is needed to better elucidate the higher-level phylogeny of the tribes and subfamilies of Tephritidae.
In summary, we have successfully sequenced the complete mitogenome of Z.tau from Malaysia and China and confirmed that they were conspecific. Based on partial cox1 sequences, the taxa from China, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, and Z. tau sp. A from Thailand are conspecific and belong to Z. tau sensu stricto. The mitogenome will prove useful for studies on phylogenetics and systematics of fruit flies of the Z. tau species complex and other taxa of Tephritidae.
