Adineta vaga
[edit]Adineta vaga is a species belonging to this genus with four subspecies: A. v. major, A. v. minor, A. v. rhomboidea, and A. v. vaga. It is a obligate pathogen. A member of this species was uncovered from permafrost in northeastern Siberia dating to around 24,000 years before present. However it was still alive in a frozen state making it the longest reported case of rotifer survival in a frozen state.[2]
Genome
[edit]The genome of Adineta vaga is tetraploid. It is composed mainly of anciently duplicated segments and less divergent allelic regions. Its allelic regions are rearranged and sometimes even found on the same chromosome which is in contrast to sexual species of this genus.[3]
Meiosis
[edit]Until recently, it was considered that the reproductive mode of bdelloid rotifers is mitotic parthenogenesis. However, recent research with Adineta vaga now supports a meiotic derived oogenesis with an altered meiosis I stage. During this stage homologous chromosomes associate, likely undergo recombinational repair of DNA damage and then separate, but do not segregate into haploid nuclei.[4]
