Early cephalopod evolution clarifed through Bayesian phylogenetic inference

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Despite the excellent fossil record of cephalopods, their early evolution is poorly understood. Diferent, npartly incompatible phylogenetic hypotheses have been proposed in the past, which refected individual author’s nopinions on the importance of certain characters but were not based on thorough cladistic analyses. At the same ntime, methods of phylogenetic inference have undergone substantial improvements. For fossil datasets, which typically only include morphological data, Bayesian inference and in particular the introduction of the fossilized birth-death model have opened new possibilities. Nevertheless, many tree topologies recovered from these new methods refect large uncertainties, which have led to discussions on how to best summarize the information contained in the posterior set of trees.nResults: We present a large, newly compiled morphological character matrix of Cambrian and Ordovician cephalopods to conduct a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis and resolve existing controversies. Our results recover three major monophyletic groups, which correspond to the previously recognized Endoceratoidea, Multiceratoidea, and Orthoceratoidea, though comprising slightly diferent taxa. In addition, many Cambrian and Early Ordovician representatives of the Ellesmerocerida and Plectronocerida were recovered near the root. The Ellesmerocerida is para- and polyphyletic, with some of its members recovered among the Multiceratoidea and early Endoceratoidea. These relationships are robust against modifcations of the dataset. While our trees initially seem to refect large uncertainties, these are mainly a consequence of the way clade support is measured. We show that clade posterior probabilities and tree similarity metrics often underestimate congruence between trees, especially if wildcard taxa are involved.nConclusions: Our results provide important insights into the earliest evolution of cephalopods and clarify evolutionary pathways. We provide a classifcation scheme that is based on a robust phylogenetic analysis. Moreover, we provide some general insights on the application of Bayesian phylogenetic inference on morphological datasets. We nsupport earlier fndings that quartet similarity metrics should be preferred over the Robinson-Foulds distance when nhigher-level phylogenetic relationships are of interest and propose that using a posteriori pruned maximum clade ncredibility trees help in assessing support for phylogenetic relationships among a set of relevant taxa, because they nprovide clade support values that better refect the phylogenetic signal
