Figure 2:

Bayesian tree of unique COI haplotypes derived from 915 Pratylenchus specimen data set. Nodes are labeled according to tree building approach, with bootstrap values indicated in green for neighbor-joining, blue for maximum-likelihood, and red for posterior probability in Bayesian analysis. The absence of a value reflects the absence of that node, or bootstrap values below 50 in a particular tree building approach. Terminal nodes are labeled by Nematode Identification Numbers (NIDs) and taxon name.

1 The number of base differences per site from averaging over all sequence pairs between groups are shown. The analysis involved 915 nucleotide sequences. aNot possible to estimate evolutionary distances.

Figure 3:

Maximum likelihood tree of haplotype groups reflecting group membership support based on consensus tree topology, and species delimitation methods. These methods are indicated by colored bars: Automatic Barcoding Gap Discovery (ABGD) green bar, Generalized Mixed Yule Coalescent (GMYC) red bar, and statistical parsimony analysis (TCS) blue bar. TCS groups marked with an asterisk indicate a merging of two groups at a 90% connection limit.

Figure 4:

Bayesian evolutionary analysis by sampling trees (BEAST) analysis of estimated divergence times using the mitochondrial substitution genome rate of 7.2 ×10−8 per site per generation, a calibration originally calculated for the nematode Caenorhabditis briggsae (Howe et al., 2010). The rate assumes two Pratylenchus generations per year. Divergence age confidence intervals of 95% are provided at nodes.

Figure 5:

Matrix exhibiting Pratylenchus species of the Great Plains and their host associations. The number of fields with a specific plant host-Pratylenchus species combination is indicated by the number within the green circles.

Figure 6:

TCS networks depicting Pratylenchus neglectus haplotype abundance and relationships among haplotypes. Dashed lines encircling haplotypes indicate 95% connection limits. Hash marks between haplotypes indicate number of mutational steps between haplotypes. Relative size of the circles reflects abundance of specimens exhibiting that specific haplotype. (A) Colors indicate geographic origin of the haplotypes in the Pratylenchus survey; (B) colors indicate the host in the field at time of the survey.

Figure 7:

TCS network at 95% connection limit depicting Pratylenchus scribneri haplotype abundance and relationships among haplotypes. Hash marks between haplotypes indicate number of mutational steps between haplotypes. Relative size of the circles reflects abundance of specimens exhibiting that specific haplotype. (A) Colors indicate geographic origin of the haplotypes in the Pratylenchus survey; (B) colors indicate the host in the field at time of the survey.

Figure 8:

TCS networks depicting (A) the single haplotype of Pratylenchus thornei and (B) the two networks exhibited by Pratylenchus hexincisus. Dashed lines encircling haplotypes indicate 95% connection limits. Hash marks between haplotypes indicate number of mutational steps between haplotypes. Relative size of the circles reflects abundance of specimens exhibiting that specific haplotype. Colors indicate geographic origin of the haplotypes in the Pratylenchus survey.
