Contrasting nidification behaviors facilitate diversification and colonization of the Music frogs under a changing paleoclimate

In order to cope with the complexity and variability of the terrestrial environment, amphibians have developed a wide range of reproductive and parental behaviors. Nest building occurs in some anuran species as parental care. Species of the Music frog genus Nidirana are known for their unique courtship behavior and mud nesting in several congeners. However, the evolution of these frogs and their nidification behavior has yet to be studied. With phylogenomic and phylogeographic analyses based on a wide sampling of the genus, we find that Nidirana originated from central-southwestern China and the nidification behavior initially evolved at ca 19.3 Ma but subsequently lost in several descendants. Further population genomic analyses suggest that the nidification species have an older diversification and colonization history, while N. adenopleura complex congeners that do not exhibit nidification behavior have experienced a recent rapid radiation. The presence and loss of the nidification be..., , , # Data from: Contrasting nidification behaviors facilitate diversification and colonization of the Music frogs under a changing paleoclimate

为应对陆地环境的复杂性与多变性，两栖动物演化出了多样的繁殖与亲代抚育行为。部分无尾两栖类物种会通过构筑巢穴来实施亲代抚育。弹琴蛙属（Nidirana）的物种以其独特的求偶行为以及多个同属物种的泥巢筑巢习性而闻名。然而，该类群蛙类的演化历程及其筑巢（nidification）行为的起源与演化尚未得到系统研究。
基于对该属的广泛采样，本研究通过系统基因组学与系统地理学分析发现，弹琴蛙属起源于中国中南部地区，其筑巢行为最初约在19.3百万年前（Ma）演化出现，但随后在多个后裔类群中丢失。进一步的种群基因组学分析显示，具备筑巢习性的类群拥有更古老的物种分化与定殖历史；而不表现出筑巢行为的安氏弹琴蛙（N. adenopleura）复合体同属物种，则经历了近期的快速辐射演化。
