中文摘要：

ND4和ND5是线粒体基因组中编码NADH脱氢酶亚基4和亚基5的两个蛋白质编码基因。该研究以鳅超科鱼类为研究对象,新测定了10个物种的ND4和ND5基因全序列以及中间的3个tRNA基因共212bp的序列,结合从GenBank下载的15个物种的15条序列进行序列比较和系统发育关系分析。结果显示：鳅超科鱼类ND4基因全长1380～1387bp,以ATG为起始密码子,终止密码子为不完全终止信号;ND5基因全长1821～1839bp,同样起始密码子为ATG,终止密码子为TAA或TAG;ND4和ND5基因之间插入了3个tRNA基因,分别编码携带组氨酸、丝氨酸、亮氨酸的tRNA。ND4和ND5基因（包含3个tRNA基因）中A、T、G、C的平均含量分别为30.4%、27.3%、14.2%、28.1%,A＋T（57.7%）的含量高于G＋C（42.3%）的含量。转换与颠换比（Ti/Tv）平均值为1.586。选取斑马鱼和鲤鱼作为外类群,采用最大简约法（MP）、最大似然法（ML）和贝叶斯推断法（BI）进行系统发育树的重建。三种方法的系统发育分析结果都显示：花鳅亚科、条鳅亚科、沙鳅亚科、平鳍鳅科及Vaillantellidae分别构成单系;它们的系统发育关系为：（Vaillantellidae＋（沙鳅亚科＋（花鳅亚科＋（条鳅亚科＋平鳍鳅科）。这与线粒体全基因组和某些核基因（如RAG1基因）的研究结果类似,且支持率较高,表明ND4和ND5基因用于鳅超科鱼类的系统发育分析是可行的;但是该研究的结果有别于其他线粒体基因的分析结果,如基于cytb和D-loop基因进行的系统发育分析表明,条鳅亚科和花鳅亚科聚为姐妹群,再和平鳍鳅科聚在一起。这种差异可能是由于使用的基因长度差异造成的,长度越长,信息量越大,所反映的系统发育结果可能更加接近真实情况。

英文摘要：

In the present study, we cloned and sequenced 10 new ND4 and ND5 gene sequences of Cobitoidea. These sequences were used to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships together with those of 15 other species downloaded from GenBank. The results showed that the length of ND4 gene sequence was 1 380？1 387 bp with ATG as starting codon and incomplete termination signal as terminated codon; the length of ND5 gene sequence was 1 821？1 839 bp with ATG as starting codon and TAA or TAG as terminated codon; three tRNA genes coding tRNAs that carry hisidine, serine and leucine respectively, were inserted between ND4 and ND5 genes. A, T, C and G accounted for 30.4%, 27.3%, 14.2% and 28.1% in ND4/ND5 gene （including intervening three tRNA genes）. The content of A＋T （57.7%） is higher than that of G＋C （42.3%）. The estimated Ti/Tv ratio was 1.586. With Danio rerio and Cyprinus carpio as outgroups, the phylogenetic relationships of Cobitoidea were analyzed using maximum parsimony （MP） method, maximum likelihood （ML） method and Bayesian analyses （BI）. Results of all the three methods indicated that Cobitinae, Nemacheilinae, Botiinae, Balitoridae and Vaillantellidae were all monophyletic respectively, and their interrelationships were： （Vaillantellidae ＋ （Botiinae ＋ （Cobitinae ＋ （Nemacheilinae ＋ Balitoridae））））, which was consistent with the previous studies based on the whole mitogenome and some nuclear genes sequences （eg. RAG1 gene）. However, the present results differ from those based upon other mtDNA genes sequences （e.g. the cyt b and D-loop showed that Nemacheilinae grouped with Cobitinae forming sister-group, then they clustered with Balitoridae）. The difference could be due to the phylogenetic information carried by different length sequence： Longer sequences carry more information and result in more reliable phylogenetic trees.
