Molecular Phylogeny of Paramecium bursaria and Identification of its EndosymbiontsThe SSU and ITS rDNA of the nuclear ribosomal operon were sequenced to infer the genetic variability of the investigated strains. The SSU and ITS rDNA sequences were aligned according to their secondary structure (examples are presented for the strain SAG 27.96; Fig. 1 and Supplementary Fig. 1). Additional sequences acquired from GenBank were incorporated into a dataset, which included all syngens also from references known for P. bursaria. The phylogenetic analyses revealed five highly supported lineages among the P. bursaria strains, which corresponded to their syngen assignment. As demonstrated in Fig. 2, all investigated strains belonging to the syngens R1, R2 and R5 originated from Europe, whereas the others of the syngens R3-R4 showed a worldwide distribution. The three known green algal endosymbionts, i.e., Chlorella variabilis (Cvar), Chlorella vulgaris (Cvul) and Micractinium conductrix (Mcon) showed no or only little affiliation to specific syngens.Figure 1ITS‐1 (A) and ITS-2 (B) secondary structures of Paramecium protobursaria, SAG 27.96 (syngen R1).Full size imageFigure 2Molecular phylogeny of the Paramecium bursaria species complex based on SSU and ITS rDNA sequence comparisons. The phylogenetic tree shown was inferred using the maximum likelihood method based on the datasets (2197 aligned positions of 19 taxa) using the computer program PAUP 4.0a169. For the analyses, the best model was calculated by PAUP 4.0a169. The setting of the best model was given as follows: TVM + I (base frequencies: A 0.2983, C 0.1840, G 0.2271, T 0.2906; rate matrix A–C 2.6501, A–G 8.6851, A–U 5.3270, C–G 0.91732, C–U 8.6851, G–U 1.0000) with the proportion of invariable sites (I = 0.9544). The branches in bold are highly supported in all bootstrap analyses (bootstrap values  > 50% calculated with PAUP using the maximum likelihood, neighbour—joining, and maximum parsimony). The clades are named after the syngens (color‐coded) proposed by Greczek‐Stachura et al.10 and Bomford9 in brackets. The accession numbers are given after the strain numbers. The endosymbiotic green algae identified are highlighted (Mcon—Micractinium conductrix, Cvar—Chlorella variabilis and Cvul—Chlorella vulgaris) after the origin of the P. bursaria strains. The reference strain of each syngen is marked with an asterisk. The strains used for morphological comparisons are marked with a green dot next to the strain number.Full size imageSynapomorphies of the Paramecium bursaria SyngensAs demonstrated in Fig. 2, the subdivision of the P. bursaria strains into syngens is supported by the phylogenetic analyses of the SSU and ITS rDNA sequences. To figure out if these splits were also supported by characteristic molecular signatures, we studied the secondary structures of both SSU and ITS of all available sequences. We discovered 30, respectively 23 variable positions among the SSU and ITS sequences (numbers of these positions in the respective alignments are given in Fig. 3). All syngens showed characteristic patterns among the SSU and ITS. Only the syngens R1 and R2 could not be distinguished using the SSU only, however, in combination with the ITS, each syngen is characterized by unique synapomorphies as highlighted in yellow (Fig. 3). In addition, few variable base positions within syngens (marked in blue in Fig. 3) have been recognized in the ITS regions. For comparison with literature data, we also analyzed all available sequences of the mitochondrial COI gene to find synapomorphies for the five syngens. Within this gene, only 18 variable positions at the amino acid level could be discovered of which 13 are diagnostic for the five syngens (Fig. 3).Figure 3Variable base positions among the SSU, ITS rRNA, and COI sequences of the five syngens among the Paramecium bursaria species complex. The unique synapomorphies are highlighted in yellow, variable positions marked in blue.Full size imageThe synapomorphies discovered above were used to get insights into the geographical distribution of each P. bursaria syngen. Despite the complete SSU and ITS rDNA sequences included in the phylogeny presented in Fig. 2, records of the partial SSU or ITS rDNA sequences are available in GenBank (BLASTn search; 100% identity;13). Considering the metadata of our investigated strains and of the entries in GenBank (Supplementary Table 1), we constructed three haplotype networks using the Templeton-Crandall-Sing (TCS) approach. The SSU haplotype network (Fig. 4) containing 84 records showed that the syngens R1, R2 and R5 were only found in Europe, whereas the other three syngens have been discovered around the world. A similar distribution pattern occurred when using the ITS (101 entries in GenBank). Records of syngens R1 and R5 have only been found in Europe, whereas all other syngens were distributed around the world. The 132 COI records found in GenBank by the BLASTn search were used for the haplotype network, which also showed the similar pattern (Fig. 4).Figure 4TCS haplotype networks of the five syngens inferred from SSU, ITS rRNA, and COI sequences of the Paramecium bursaria species complex. This network was inferred using the algorithm described by Clement et al.40,41. Sequence nodes corresponding to samples collected from different geographical regions.Full size imageCiliate TaxonomyConsidering all our findings, P. bursaria is morphologically highly variable, and obviously represents a cryptic species complex (Figs. 5, 6; Supplementary Table 2). The known five syngens most likely represent biological species according to Mayr14 and can be attributed to the cryptic species described by Greczek-Stachura et al.11. As mentioned above, the assignments of these cryptic species by Greczek-Stachura et al.11 have not been validly described according to the ICZN. In addition, the naming using a mixture of Latin prefix and Greek suffix is also not appropriate (the epithet bursa derived from the Greek word byrsa). Therefore, we describe the five syngens as new species as follows. The general morphological features of these species are summarized in Table 1.Figure 5Ventral views of Paramecium bursaria morphotypes in vivo: P. protobursaria (syngen R1), i.e., strains SAG 2645 (A) and PB-25 (B); P. deuterobursaria (syngen R2), i.e., strains CCAP 1660/36 (C) and CCAP 1660/34 (D); P. tritobursaria (syngen R3), i.e., strains CCAP 1660/28 (E), CCAP 1660/26 (F) and CCAP 1660/31 (G); P. tetratobursaria (syngen R4), i.e., strains CCAP 1660/25 (H) and CCAP 1660/33 (I); P. pentobursaria (syngen R5), i.e., strain CCAP 1660/30 (J).

Colored dots indicate the strength of correlation, and the size of dots represent p-values. Bold squares highlight significant correlations, with − 0.75  > r  > 0.75 and p  1, accounting for 73.1% variation in total (Supplementary Table 3).

Project 1: mesocosm field experimentsMesocosm experiments took place at Lockwood Farm located in Hamden, Connecticut. Individual mesocosms were composed of black 20 L cylindrical plastic containers filled with 12 L tap water and seeded with 10 mg of a 3:2 ratio liver powder/brewer’s yeast mixture and 1 g of grass hay. Drain-holes were drilled into the sides of each container 5 mm from the 12 L surface to allow flooding for Aedes spp. egg emergence and to allow overflow beyond this level due to precipitation. Four experimental mesocosm clusters were dispersed throughout the Lockwood Farm in microhabitats previously sampled in Eastwood et al.22. Clusters contained 4 mesocosms spaced 3 m apart in a 2 × 2 grid. We utilized four L. sphaericus treatment levels in each cluster: no L. sphaericus, the LC50 (0.053 ITU/ml) and LC95 (1.0 ITU/ml) for Culex pipiens derived from Burtis et al.3, and the label rate of L. sphaericus (~ 1.2 ITU/ml). All treatments were derived from VectoLex WDG. Prior to insecticide application, we prepared 1 L of a 1000 ITU/ml stock solution. To inoculate each mesocosm, we measured the depth of the container’s water column, calculated water volume, and applied the appropriate amount of stock to achieve the target LC value. Replicate insecticide treatments were randomized within each cluster, and insecticides were applied 30-days post mesocosm seeding with nutrients. All mesocosms in each cluster were rotated within the 2 × 2 grid each week. Two clusters were then randomly chosen for a second application of L. sphaericus 30-days post initial insecticide application.To sample the larval habitat of each mesocosm, we performed a figure-8 sweep with an aquarium fish net (4 × 3-in. opening, Penn-Plax) each Monday and Thursday of the week for each week of the experiment. Sweep contents were washed from the net into a white photo development pan, and pupae were removed for in-lab identification after eclosion following a dichotomous key23. All larvae were then returned to the mesocosm. This sampling protocol minimized destruction of larval habitats and influence of interspecific interactions due to removal sampling.In addition to sampling containers for pupae, we collected water samples from each container for an in-lab bioassay to determine the realized mortality of the larval environment. Due to time constraints of the field crew, a 50% randomized sample of containers were sampled on Monday with the remaining 50% sampled on Thursday of each sampling week. Bioassay procedures followed McMillan et al.24 for Cx. pipiens with the addition of screening mortality in CAES’ Ae. albopictus colonies. We finally performed in-lab susceptibility trials to L. sphaericus with larvae from CAES’ Cx. pipiens and Ae. albopictus colonies to confirm each species’ colony varied in their sensitivity to the product. Briefly, 15 3rd to 4th instar larvae of each species per replicate dose were exposed to a wide range of L. sphaericus concentrations and mortality was recorded 24-h post-exposure. Lethal concentrations were then estimated from a generalized linear model with mortality (corrected for mortality in untreated control replicates) as the response term and the log10-dose as the predictor term.Primary endpoints from the field experiment included the number and species identity of pupae collected from each mesocosm. We compared total weekly pupal collections per mesocosm using a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) framework with treatment level and cluster ID as fixed effects, species ID and week of collection as a random effect, and a Poisson-error distribution. We repeated this analysis excluding all collected Culex spp. to examine how the L. sphaericus treatments impacted the more tolerant Aedes spp. The primary endpoint for the mortality assays was the corrected larval mortality. We initially compared mortality using a species-specific GLMM with L. sphaericus treatment concentration and treatment period as fixed effects, week of collection as a random effect, and a binomial-error distribution. Preliminary analyses revealed negligible variance attributed to week of collection, so all subsequent models were a GLM. All analyses were performed in R V4.1.325 using the following packages: tidyverse26, gridExtra27, ggplot228, ggeffects29, and glmmTMB30.Project 2: laboratory competition assaysCompetition assays took place at CAES’ main facility in New Haven, CT. This facility contains an Ae. albopictus colony (founded circa 2014 from Stratford, CT) and a Cx. pipiens colony (founded circa 2018 from New Haven, CT;). Colony maintenance for each species was similar: larval rearing pans consisted of approx. 200 eggs (on papers, Ae. albopictus, or as egg rafts, Cx. pipiens) in ~ 2 L RO water and initiated with ~ 20 ml of a 1% 3:2 liver powder/brewer’s yeast slurry. Pans were held at 25.5 °C and 80% humidity and fed ~ 20 ml of the 1% slurry every other day. Pupae were removed to an eclosion chamber and adults were allowed access to 10% sucrose solution ad libitum. Aedes albopictus females were given access to defibrinated sheep’s blood (HemoStat©) through a Hemotek membrane feeder for 1 h every 2–3 weeks and moistened, fluted filter paper was provided to collect eggs. Culex pipiens females were given access to a live, restrained buttonquail overnight once per week and a small cup seeded with 5 ml 1% slurry and 15 RO ml water was provided to collect egg rafts. The use of buttonquail was reviewed and approved in accordance with CAES Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.We performed two experiments. All experiments consisted of the following treatments: variable ratios of Ae:Cx larvae and two L. sphaericus treatments (no treatment and 0.01 ITU/ml). Larval density (40 per container) remained constant across all replicate treatments, but Ae:Cx ratios varied from 40/0, 30/10, 20/20, 10/30, and 0/40. Nutrients supplied were a low concentration (3 mg larva−1) of a 3:2 liver powder/brewer’s yeast mix applied at the beginning of the experiment. Temperature was held constant at the colony maintenance level. Assays took place in 300 ml disposable plastic cups filled with 100 ml of RO water. The first experiments consisted of the addition of the 40 larvae as newly hatched individuals (+/− 1 day between species’ hatch) at the appropriate ratios, the larval diet, and the 0.01 ITU/ml concentration (diluted from a lab stock of 1000 ITU/ml). Assays were monitored daily until all larvae were dead and/or all larvae pupated. Experiment 2 consisted of the addition of only the Cx. pipiens larvae and the larval diet. After all Cx. pipiens had pupated, containers were treated with L. sphaericus and then the Ae. Albopictus larvae were added.Primary endpoints included species-specific pupation success. Preliminary analyses in a GLMM framework revealed negligible variance attributed to a replicate ID random effect; replicate as a random term also interfered with model convergence. Preliminary analyses further revealed there was neither a significant interaction nor an improvement in the Akaike Information Criterion between the L. sphaericus treatment and initial starting condition terms. Thus, we adopted a GLM rather than a GLMM framework in all further analyses, and species-specific mortality was analyzed as a binomial response term with treatment and initial starting conditions included as fixed effects All analyses were performed in R V4.1.325 using the following packages: tidyverse26, gridExtra27, and ggplot228.
