    Similar adaptative mechanism but divergent demographic history of four sympatric desert rodents in Eurasian inland

    Species distribution modeling, spatial climate segregation and niche widthTo explore the selective regimes of the four species on external environmental factors, we first constructed species distribution modeling (SDM). We obtained a dataset including 22 environmental factors represented by climate, relief, and vegetation variables from 620 localities for DS, 1028 localities for OS, 581 localities for MM and 332 localities for PR, covering most of the species’ distribution ranges (Supplementary Fig. 1). The distribution areas of the four species overlapped widely. The contributions of environmental factors to SDMs showed similarities among the four species. The summer NDVI made important contributions for DS (41.0), OS (44.8), MM (32.5) and PR (8.1), and sand cover contributed significantly to PR (72.7) and DS (16.0) (Fig. 1c). Then, we assessed which set of environmental variables was most closely associated with species distribution via principal component analysis. The bioclimatic space occupied by the four species revealed a large overlap (Fig. 1d), which was consistent with SDM (Supplementary Fig. 1). The distribution of OS was more closely associated with higher-precipitation areas, whereas MM seemed to prefer areas with higher temperatures. Finally, we evaluated the macrohabitat niche breadth of each species. The breadths of environmental space occupation were similar for DS (0.527), MM (0.571), and PR (0.548) and slightly higher for OS (0.622), which suggests that niche selection among the four species is partially overlapping. In total, the four species are mostly similar in the selection of external environmental factors.High-quality genomic landscapes of the four desert rodentsTo investigate the genetic mechanism for desert adaptation of the four sympatric desert rodents, we generated four high-quality de novo genomes (Supplementary Fig. 2). The DS was sequenced using a combined strategy and generated 377.67 Gb of data from Illumina reads, 261.01 Gb from PacBio long reads, 299.51 Gb from 10X Genomics reads, and 389.13 Gb from Hi-C reads (Supplementary Table 1). The final genome size was 2.81 Gb with contig N50 of 31.41 Mb and ~472X mean coverage (Table 1, Supplementary Fig. 3, and Supplementary Tables 2, 3). The contigs for DS were further assembled into pseudochromosomes with lengths on the order of full chromosomes and a scaffold N50 size of 147.24 Mb (Fig. 2a, b, Table 1, and Supplementary Fig. 4). The OS, MM and PR were sequenced using the same hybrid strategy and generated 162.58 Gb, 172.22 Gb, and 214.34 Gb Illumina reads and 183.09 Gb, 161.34 Gb, and 186.45 Gb Oxford Nanopore Technologies long reads, respectively (Supplementary Table 1). The final assembly of OS, MM and PR was 2.83 Gb, 2.43 Gb, and 2.16 Gb with contig N50 of 25.87 Mb, 24.08 Mb, and 42.68 Mb, respectively (Table 1, Supplementary Fig. 4, and Supplementary Tables 2, 3).Table 1 Genome assembly statistics of the four desert rodents.Full size tableFig. 2: High-quality assembly of Dipus sagitta genome and genomic elements of the four sequenced desert rodents.a Hi-C heat map of Dipus sagitta genome assembly. b CIRCOS plot showing the distribution of GC content, transposable elements (TE), and coding sequences (CDS) in the D. sagitta genome. c Orthologous coding sequences composition inferred for thirteen rodents’ genomes.

The barplots show the proportions of different types of TEs in corresponding species on the phylogenetic tree.Full size imageAnalyses of the four draft genomes showed that 92.9–95.9% of mammalian BUSCOs were complete, and the GC content was 41.38–42.16% (Table 1 and Supplementary Table 3). Whole-genome annotation was performed via three complementary methods: ab initio prediction, homology-based prediction and RNA-seq based prediction. A total of 23,482, 22,859, 22,533, and 22,314 protein-coding genes were annotated for DS, OS, MM, and PR, respectively (Fig. 2c, Supplementary Fig. 5, Supplementary Table 4). Approximately 98.8–99.1% of genes were functionally annotated for the four species (Supplementary Table 4). Transposable elements (TEs) accounted for 31.38–53.02% of genome assemblies, which predominantly consisted of long-terminal repeats (LTRs), long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) and other unknown TEs (Fig. 2d). DS and OS displayed significant LTR expansion of 47.39% and 50.88% in four sequenced genomes, while MM showed an unexpectedly high LINE expansion of 28.99% and sharp LTR contraction to 9.38% (Supplementary Table 5).Phylogenetic relationship and evolutionary historyUsing 5,102 single-copy orthologous groups, we constructed a high-confidence phylogenetic tree using the maximum-likelihood algorithm, including time calibrations based on fossil records and previous studies (Figs. 1b, 2c)22. The phylogenetic tree strongly supported nodes uniting the subfamilies Murinae and Gerbillinae, which together represented the family Muridae (Supplementary Fig. 6). This group was sister to a clade containing cricetids. Spalacidae was recovered as the earliest divergent lineage from Muridae and Cricetidae in the superfamily Muroidea. The split of the most recent common ancestor of Dipodoidea and Muroidea dated to ~56.5 Mya (Fig. 1b, Supplementary Fig. 7). In the Miocene epoch (23 Mya–5.3 Mya), accelerated global geotectonic movement aggravated global climate drying and cooling23. Geological disruptions that modified landscapes and offered new habitats favored the early adaptive radiation of extant desert rodents. The ancestors of four sequenced species emerged separately during this period (Supplementary Note 1). Our phylogenetic tree is consistent with previous evolutionary research on rodents22 and supports the independent evolution of desert adaptations in Jerboas, Gerbils and Hamsters.Expanded and contracted gene familiesComparative genomic analysis revealed 23/32, 4/22, 39/73, and 22/83 gene families exhibiting significant expansion/contraction in the genomes of DS, OS, MM, and PR, respectively (Fig. 1b and Supplementary Fig. 8). Genes belonging to the expanded/contracted families were functionally enriched (Fisher Exact  More
