For many such taxonomic exercises, mitochondrial genes and primarily the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene (mtDNA COI) barcode sequence have been selected (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B1" ref-type="bibr">Alam etal. 2015</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B29" ref-type="bibr">Leys etal. 2016</xref>). The same applies to other mitochondrial sequences such as the cytochrome oxidase II gene (mtDNA COII) (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B39" ref-type="bibr">Sunnucks etal. 2000</xref>) and cytochrome <italic>b</italic> gene (cyt <italic>b</italic>) (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B33" ref-type="bibr">Mundy etal. 2000</xref>), as well as nuclear DNA markers (i.e., nuclear 18S and 28S rRNA gene regions, e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B26" ref-type="bibr">Jorger and Schrodl 2013</xref>; microsatellite DNA markers, e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B12" ref-type="bibr">Cheng etal. 2013</xref>).</p><p>One significant challenge faced in the delimitation of otherwise indistinguishable species using mtDNA COI data sets is the possible presence of nuclear mitochondrial DNA pseudogenes (NUMTs) (<xref rid="evx173-B6" ref-type="bibr">Bensasson etal. 2001</xref>). PCR products derived from NUMTs are often a result of poor PCR primer efficacies (<xref rid="evx173-B32" ref-type="bibr">Moulton etal. 2010</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B30" ref-type="bibr">Lobo etal. 2013</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B42" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2017</xref>). When they are treated as authentic mtDNA genes, failure to identify them is likely to lead to inaccurate phylogenetic inferences due to differences in divergence times between NUMTs and genuine mtDNA genes (<xref rid="evx173-B39" ref-type="bibr">Sunnucks etal. 2000</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B6" ref-type="bibr">Bensasson etal. 2001</xref>). Numerous methodologies are available to assist with the identification of NUMTs (reviewed in <xref rid="evx173-B6" ref-type="bibr">Bensasson etal. 2001</xref>) and include identifying non-functionality of the gene fragment through the presence of stop codons within protein coding gene regions. Despite this, NUMTs can be overlooked (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B9" ref-type="bibr">Boykin etal. 2007</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B27" ref-type="bibr">Karut etal. 2015</xref>) when stop codons are found outside the target gene region and this is a particular challenge when the target sequences are short.</p><p>Arthropod pests of economic importance, such as those infesting stored grain products (<xref rid="evx173-B41" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016</xref>a), vectors of plant or animal pathogens, for example, cassava brown streak virus (<xref rid="evx173-B31" ref-type="bibr">Maruthi etal. 2005</xref>), tomato yellow leaf curl virus (<xref rid="evx173-B23" ref-type="bibr">Ghanim etal. 1998</xref>), blue tongue virus (<xref rid="evx173-B40" ref-type="bibr">Tabachnick 1996</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B18" ref-type="bibr">De Liberato etal. 2005</xref>), and parasites, for example, varroa mites (<xref rid="evx173-B2" ref-type="bibr">Anderson and Trueman 2000</xref>), require accurate species identification in order to better understand population structure of these pests, the interpretation of disease outbreaks, detection of vector-host association (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B40" ref-type="bibr">Tabachnick 1996</xref>), and incursion patterns (<xref rid="evx173-B44" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016b</xref>). Further, biosecurity preparedness (i.e., early detection) and incursion response strategies as part of national border protection, require unambiguous knowledge of species status (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B3" ref-type="bibr">Armstrong and Ball 2005</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B14" ref-type="bibr">Collins etal. 2012</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B44" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016b</xref>).</p><p>In the whitefly <italic>Bemisia tabaci</italic> pest species complex, numerous species belonging to at least 11 (<xref rid="evx173-B17" ref-type="bibr">De Barro etal. 2011</xref>) sister clades have been proposed based on the partial mtDNA COI gene, the 657 bp 3′ end of the gene (<xref rid="evx173-B8" ref-type="bibr">Boykin etal. 2013</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B28" ref-type="bibr">Lee etal. 2013</xref>). Of these clades, the African/Middle East/Asia Minor clade is of special interest, as it contains the two most invasive members of the complex, Mediterranean (MED, the “true” <italic>B. tabaci</italic> [<xref rid="evx173-B43" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2012</xref>]) and Middle East Asia Minor 1 (MEAM1). This clade also contains two other species, Middle East Asia Minor 2 (MEAM2) and Indian Ocean (IO). Whilst IO is not known to be invasive, MED and MEAM1 are globally wide-spread and vectors of highly damaging plant viruses (reviewed in <xref rid="evx173-B17" ref-type="bibr">De Barro etal. 2011</xref>), whereas MEAM2 has increasingly been detected across globally disparate locations such as Japan (<xref rid="evx173-B47" ref-type="bibr">Ueda etal. 2009</xref>; AB308110), Peru (this study), Iraq (KX679576; collected in 2015), Turkey (<xref rid="evx173-B27" ref-type="bibr">Karut etal. 2015</xref>, sequences KK103B, KK104A, KK104B), and Egypt (FJ939600, FJ939602), since its initial detection in the Indian Ocean island of Réunion (<xref rid="evx173-B19" ref-type="bibr">Delatte etal. 2005</xref>; AJ550177). The incursion pathways of MED and MEAM1 are linked to the worldwide global trade in ornamental plants (<xref rid="evx173-B10" ref-type="bibr">Cheek and Macdonald 1994</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B16" ref-type="bibr">Dalton 2006</xref>), however factors underlying the spread of MEAM2 are less certain although detection frequencies have increased in recent times since its initial report (<xref rid="evx173-B19" ref-type="bibr">Delatte etal. 2005</xref>).</p><p>Molecular characterizations using the whole mitogenome have been carried out for only one of the four invasive clade species—that of MED, although other <italic>Bemisia</italic> species from the complex and <italic>Bemisia</italic> “JpL” species have also been reported (<xref rid="evx173-B4" ref-type="bibr">Baumann 2004</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B48" ref-type="bibr">Wang etal. 2013</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B41" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016</xref>, <xref rid="evx173-B42" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>).

All genomic DNA (gDNA) extractions were performed using the Qiagen DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit (Cat. # 69506), including the optional RNase A treatment (Qiagen, Cat. # 19101). Individually extracted and purified gDNA samples were eluted in 25 µl of Qiagen buffer EB (Cat. # 19086) and quantified using a Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer and the Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity DNA Assay kit (ThermoFisher Scientific, Cat # Q32854).</p><p>The gDNA from three of the five Peruvian whitefly specimens (KX234913, KX234914, KY951454) were each made into separate NGS gDNA libraries using the protocol of <xref rid="evx173-B41" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal.

To better understand the potential genomic origins of MEAM2 COI haplotypes and hence its species status, we further prepared separate Illumina MiSeq libraries of a single individual from each of the three species (i.e., MED, IO, MEAM1) known to be also present in Réunion Island (<xref rid="evx173-B19" ref-type="bibr">Delatte etal. 2005</xref>). These included one Réunion individual from an “IO” population, one Burkina Faso individual from a MED population, and one MEAM1 individual from an Australian population. The high throughput sequencing gDNA library preparation method followed the Illumina Nextera XT DNA library preparation guide (Part # 15031942 Rev.

The amplified libraries were sized selected and purified using the Beckman Coulter AMPure XP system (Bead to DNA ratio of 0.7) and eluted in 28 µl of Qiagen buffer EB (Cat. # 19086). The purified libraries were then quantified by Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity DNA Assay as above, their average fragment size estimated using the Agilent 2200 Tapestation and High Sensitivity D1000 screentape (Cat # 5067-5585) and then normalized to a final concentration of 4 nM. The Nextera XT gDNA libraries were pooled, diluted to a final concentration of 11 pM (with 5% spike-in of Illumina Phi X Control v3 library [Cat # FC-110-3001]) and sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq sequencer.

Based on our initial Sanger sequencing, two individuals from the Australian collection were identified as MEAM1. However, the third individual analyzed via NGS from the same collection was identified as belonging to a different member of the complex, AUS (657 bp mtDNA COI partial gene matched 100% sequence identity to Bundaberg, Australia [GU086328]), indicating that the collection consisted of both MEAM1 and AUS.</p><p>For the randomly selected Réunion individual as well as the Burkina Faso individual, we obtained the expected mitogenomes of IO (657 bp mtDNA COI partial gene matched 100% sequence identity of a Madagascan IO [AJ550171]) and MED (partial mtDNA COI gene (657 bp) shared 100% sequence identity to MED from Sudan [DQ133378]), respectively. From the three Peruvian individuals that were expected to be MEAM2 (i.e., KY951454; KX234913, and KX234914) on the basis of the Sanger sequence derived mtDNA COI partial gene, we instead obtained MEAM1 mitogenomes, as confirmed via partial mtDNA COI gene comparison with published sequences (KY951452 and KX234913 [nt782-1, 439] = 100% sequence identity to MEAM1 from Arizona, USA [HM070411]; and KX234914 [nt782-1, 439] = 99% sequence identity to MEAM1 from, e.g., Florida, USA [GU086340]). MEAM1 had previously been argued to represent a separate <italic>Bemisia</italic> species from <italic>B. tabaci</italic> based on behavioral, morphological, and genetic differences (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B5" ref-type="bibr">Bellows etal. 1994</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B34" ref-type="bibr">Perring etal. 1992</xref>, <xref rid="evx173-B35" ref-type="bibr">1993</xref>) and was subsequently named <italic>B. argentifolii</italic> (<xref rid="evx173-B5" ref-type="bibr">Bellows etal. 1994</xref>). <xref rid="evx173-B45" ref-type="bibr">Thao etal.

Pairwise sequence comparisons between AY521257 and our reported MEAM1 mitogenomes identified high levels of sequence similarity (99.82% identity) with the corresponding <italic>B. argentifolii</italic> mitogenome region, whereas similarity between MED, IO, and AUS mitogenome regions were much lower, at 92.52%, 91.51%, and 80.16% sequence identity, respectively (data not shown).</p><p>Sequencing of these gDNA libraries generated between 2.15 and 28.96 million paired-end (PE) sequences (<xref ref-type="table" rid="evx173-T1">table 1</xref>), from which 10,738 to 131,328 PE sequences were assembled to generate complete mitogenomes in IO, MEAM1, MED, and AUS (<xref ref-type="table" rid="evx173-T1">table 1</xref>).

Fragments of gDNA representing the MEAM2 partial mtDNA COI haplotypes also identified the presence of premature stop codons within these low copy number DNA fragments in regions of the mtDNA COI gene, as well as the loss of the expected stop codon at the C-terminal region of the mtDNA COI gene (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="evx173-F1">fig. 1<italic>A</italic> and 1<italic>B</italic></xref>). Corresponding SNP frequencies across DNA fragments generated from high-throughput sequencing, and that potentially represented NUMTs within the 657 bp mtDNA COI partial gene region, were detected at very low frequencies (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/gbe/evx173#supplementary-data">supplementary table 1<italic>a</italic></ext-link>, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary Material</xref> online), again supporting the notion that NUMTs which had resulted in the misidentification of “MEAM2” sequences, were present as low copy DNA fragments. At the corresponding nucleotide positions between a randomly selected MEAM1 sequence from GenBank and compared against the MEAM1 DNA fragments generated from the high-throughput sequencing library, SNPs detected at nucleotide positions that corresponded to those in MEAM2 were generally observed at highest frequencies (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/gbe/evx173#supplementary-data">supplementary tables 1<italic>b</italic>, 2<italic>b</italic>, 3<italic>b</italic>, 4<italic>b</italic>, 5<italic>b</italic>, and 6<italic>b</italic></ext-link>, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary Material</xref> online).

Contrasting this, SNPs within suspected MEAM2 sequences (i.e., Japan AB308110, the Peruvian MEAM2 sequence (KX234913), four Turkish MEAM2 haplotypes (<xref rid="evx173-B27" ref-type="bibr">Karut etal. 2015</xref>) were consistently of the lower frequencies (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/gbe/evx173#supplementary-data">supplementary tables 1<italic>a</italic>, 2<italic>a</italic>, 3<italic>a</italic>, 4<italic>a</italic>, 5<italic>a</italic>, and 6<italic>a</italic></ext-link>, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary Material</xref> online). Characterization of the MEAM1 mitogenomes therefore supported the hypothesis that the MEAM2 sequences were likely associated with low copy DNA fragments from the MEAM1 genome and were most likely either PCR artifacts such as DNA polymerase-introduced errors or nuclear mitochondrial DNA (e.g., NUMTs).

Within this COI-like-mRNA sequence four internal stop codons were identified and subsequently corrected (i.e., modifications involving substitutions of four bases at four genomic stop codons were introduced to the sequence of the model RefSeq protein relative to its source genomic sequence so as to represent the inferred coding sequences [GenBank Locus XM_019045089, 1,632 bp mRNA linear INV November 9, 2016; accessed January 5, 2017]). NUMTs are widespread in all eukaryotic organisms, can both be difficult to detect and introduce bias in the estimation of species diversity and DNA barcoding analyses (reviewed in <xref rid="evx173-B24" ref-type="bibr">Hazkani-Covo etal. 2010</xref>). Our analysis therefore supported the presence of only three species (i.e., MED, MEAM1, and IO) within the current invasive <italic>B. tabaci</italic> clade (Asia/Middle East/Asia Minor), and indicated that MEAM2 was a NUMT artifact. With increasing molecular characterization of global <italic>B. tabaci</italic> cryptic species complex, new species may be identified which could alter the current <italic>B. tabaci</italic> cryptic species phylogeny and also ultimately the number of species within the invasive <italic>B. tabaci</italic> clade.</p><p>Our efforts to understand species composition and to ascertain the spread of invasive <italic>B. tabaci</italic> based on limited individuals have initially identified MEAM1 in the Australian samples from Bundaberg, Queensland. When additional individuals were sampled in high-throughput sequencing we instead obtained the native AUS species. From the Peruvian individuals initially identified as MEAM2 based on partial mtDNA COI gene using suboptimal primers, high-throughput sequencing have also resulted in MEAM1 mitogenomes being assembled instead. This exercise highlighted the importance of analyzing an adequate number of individuals from a collection and the impact suboptimal PCR primers can have on estimating species composition. These included misidentification of species composition complexity at the population level, and minimizing valuable resources being misdirected to monitor for incursion of nonexistent species, both of which can have profound impacts in terms of border biosecurity responses (e.g., either missing or misidentifying species of biosecurity concern).</p><p>Several published studies (e.g., <xref rid="evx173-B19" ref-type="bibr">Delatte etal. 2005</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B47" ref-type="bibr">Ueda etal. 2009</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B27" ref-type="bibr">Karut etal. 2015</xref>) have used various non Bemisia “universal” PCR primers such as C1-J-2195/L2-N-3014; C1-J-2195/R-BQ-2819; C1-J-2195/tRNA-1576 (<xref rid="evx173-B37" ref-type="bibr">Simon etal. 1994</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B22" ref-type="bibr">Frohlich etal. 1999</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B46" ref-type="bibr">Tsagkarakou etal. 2007</xref>; <xref rid="evx173-B13" ref-type="bibr">Chu etal. 2011</xref>) and we suspect, factors such as reduced annealing site specificity (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">supplementary table 7</xref>, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary Material</xref> online ) are contributing to the coamplification of NUMTs. Previous studies reporting the detection of MEAM2, using the C1-J-2195 forward non Bemisia “universal” primer was a common factor. This primer, originally named “COI-RLR”, was developed by <xref rid="evx173-B36" ref-type="bibr">Roehrdanz (1993)</xref> from the <italic>Apis mellifera</italic> COI gene (<xref rid="evx173-B15" ref-type="bibr">Crozier and Crozier 1993</xref>), and was shown to amplify some Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, and Hymenoptera, but with unknown efficacies for Hemiptera (<xref rid="evx173-B37" ref-type="bibr">Simon etal. 1994</xref>) to which <italic>Bemisia</italic> belongs.</p><p>Various <italic>Bemisia</italic> species’ complete mitogenomes are now available (MEAM1, IO, AUS (this study), MED (<xref rid="evx173-B48" ref-type="bibr">Wang etal. 2013</xref>), Asia I (<xref rid="evx173-B41" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016</xref>), AsiaII_7 (originally identified as <italic>B. emiliae</italic>, but synomised with <italic>B. tabaci</italic> in 1957, <xref rid="evx173-B42" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2017</xref>). Direct comparison of primer-binding site efficacies between the C1-J-2195 24-mer oligonucleotide and the intended COI gene target site in these species identified poor primer efficacies that ranged between 33.3% and 45.8% for MEAM1, MED, IO, AUS, Asia I, and AsiaII_7 (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">supplementary table 7</xref>, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary Material</xref> online). <italic>B. tabaci</italic> cryptic species mtDNA COI sequences as generated using the C1-J-2195 primer should therefore be treated with extra caution. The sequencing of full mitogenomes in <italic>B. tabaci</italic> whiteflies can be achieved from single adults or nymphs (<xref rid="evx173-B41" ref-type="bibr">Tay etal. 2016</xref>, <xref rid="evx173-B42" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>; this study) and will significantly contribute to development of <italic>B. tabaci</italic> species-specific primers, although standardization of PCR-primers would be of benefit to the <italic>B. tabaci</italic> research community (<xref rid="evx173-B21" ref-type="bibr">Elfekih etal. 2017</xref>).</p><p>We have shown the consequence of pseudogenes on species delimitation within the <italic>B. tabaci</italic> cryptic complex, through direct and active searching of genomic fragments obtained from high-throughput sequencing against suspected NUMTs of the “MEAM2” haplotypes. Studies investigating the species status within the <italic>B. tabaci</italic> complex have, to-date, relied largely on the C1-J-2195 primer and have generated a large volume of haplotype data across the breadth of the <italic>B. tabaci</italic> complex. These haplotypes, currently >5,100 sequences (GenBank accessed March 17, 2017), will likely contain other unidentified pseudogenes. Future studies focusing on the phylogenetic relationships within the complex will need to be mindful of NUMTs and will require careful treatment of data so as to avoid over-interpretation of <italic>B. tabaci</italic> phylogeny and species status.</p></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material"><title>Supplementary Material</title><p><xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="sup1">Supplementary data</xref> are available at <italic>Genome Biology and Evolution</italic> online.</p></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material"><title>Supplementary Material</title><supplementary-material content-type="local-data" id="sup1"><label>Supplementary Materials</label><media xlink:href="evx173_Suppmat.xlsx"><caption><p>Click here for additional data file.</p></caption></media></supplementary-material></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>Chris Hardy, Tom Walsh, and William James (CSIRO) provided valuable discussion during the course of this study.
