We present preliminary data on mitochondrial DNA diversity within and among populations of the ants Lasius niger and Lasius platythorax in Poland. Phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial DNA markers: cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox1) and 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) confirms the species status of L. niger and L. platythorax. Intraspecific variability is low in both species, which might be a result of severe bottlenecks and rapid postglacial expansion into Central Europe.
我们展示了关于波兰黑蚁(Lasius niger)和宽胸蚁(Lasius platythorax)种群内部及种群间线粒体DNA多样性的初步数据。基于线粒体DNA标记物细胞色素c氧化酶亚基I(cox1)和16S核糖体RNA(16S rRNA)的系统发育分析证实了黑蚁和宽胸蚁的物种地位。这两个物种的种内变异性都很低,这可能是严重瓶颈效应以及冰期后迅速向中欧扩张的结果。
