E-mail address: qunyang@nigpas.ac.cn Abstract Demosponges are among the most primitive biomineralized metazoans to appear first in the fossil record with hard skeletons; their confirmed earliest fossils are from the lower Cambrian rocks about 520 Ma, with putative demosponge biomarkers reported from 713~635 Ma sediments. In this study, we use mitogenomic data to approach the early divergence timescale of demosponges using relaxed molecular clock techniques and likelihood-evaluated fossil calibration strategies. We found that among various molecular dating models, the correlated rate model yielded time estimates of demosponges in this analysis which is most congruent with the fossil appearance dates of demosponges. Our dating analyses show that crown groups of Demospongiae appeared at about 704 (674~741) Ma, and the silicification in demosponges (divergence of spicular sponges) began about 633 (616~648) Ma indicating a gap of over 100 million years between the origin of silicification and their first unequivocal appearance of siliceous spicules in the fossil record (520~525 Ma); demosponges with tetraxon-type spicules (Tetractinellida) are dated here at about 514 (498~530) Ma, an estimate comparable with the earliest tetraxial megasclere fossil records (510~520 Ma, Ordian Age, middle Cambrian).

Introduction Recent molecular studies have contributed substantially to the understanding of phylogenetic relationships among sponges; they also raised additional questions; e.g., Are the sponges monophyletic (Dohrmann et al., 2008; Philippe et al., 2009; Pick et al., 2010; Nosenko et al., 2013) or paraphyletic with Calcarea closer to Eumetazoan than other sponges (Borchiellini et al., 2001; Sperling et al., 2007, 2009; Erwin et al., 2011; Mallatt et al., 2012)? Is the subclass Homoscleromorpha more closely related with Calcarea (Dohrmann et al., 2008; Philippe et al., 2009; Gazava et al., 2010; Erwin et al., 2011) or Eumetazoa (Sperling et al., 2007; Hejnol et al., 2009), forming the fourth class of Phylum Porifera (Gazave et al., 2012)? The phylogeny of sponges is critical to understanding the origin of metazoans. Demospongiae is the most diverse group among Porifera; the earliest demosponge fossils with siliceous skeletons have been documented in the lower Cambrian (Rigby and Collins, 2004; Xiao et al., 2005), although questionable demosponge-related fossils were reported from the Neoproterozoic Doushantuo Formation (ca. 580 Ma) in South China (Li et al., 1998) and demosponge biomarkers were reported in Cryogenian strata in Oman (713~635 Ma and later sediments) (Bowring et al., 2007; Love et al., 2009), which was considered to be accordant with molecular dating (Sperling et al., 2010). Considering the huge gap of about 150~200 million years between the earliest biomarkers and unquestionable fossil sponges (mainly archaeocyaths) found in the lower Cambrian Tommotian Age (540~535 Ma; Riding and Zhuravlev, 1995), Sperling et al. (2010) provided the following possible scenarios: 1) the first appearance of spicules signifies the origination of the demosponges during the early Cambrian, and the biomarkers found in Precambrian, while the molecular divergence dates are inaccurate and supposedly demosponge-related were likely related with non-demosponge organisms; 2) the Silicea, including the hexactinellids and the spicule-bearing demosponges, is a Page 3 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t monophyletic group, both derived from the aspiculate Keratosa possibly rooted deep in the Precambrian as molecular divergence estimates and biomarkers indicate; 3) due to taphonomic bias, siliceous sponges are not preserved in Precambrian rocks. Mitochondrial genomes of Porifera, like Cnidaria, are characterized by exceptionally slow evolution, especially for Demospongiae and Homoscleromorpha (Lavrov, 2007; Wang and Lavrov, 2008), suitable for phylogenetic analyses and divergence dating (Lavrov et al., 2008; Erpenbeck et al., 2009), although some lineages experienced relatively faster rate such as Hexactinellida and Calcarea (Haen et al., 2007, 2014; Rosengarten et al., 2008; Lavrov et al., 2013). In this study, we designed an approach to estimate the origination of biomineralization in demosponges in a phylocrhonological framework on the basis of mitogenomics and carefully evaluated fossil calibration. Because the fossil record is generally incomplete and biased among different organism groups, the early divergence time of an organism group can be inferred by applying molecular clock analysis in the context of the geological timescale and the early fossil record (Ayala et al., 1998; Peterson et al., 2004, 2008; Peterson and Butterfield, 2005; Yang et al., 2007). By phylochronological analysis, we trace the evolutionary history of major demosponge lineages on the basis of their spicules fossil record and molecular-based phylogenetic timescale. In this study, we adopted the molecular phylogeny of spiculate and aspiculate demosponges to identify the important evolutionary event in the history of early silicification in Demospongiae on the basis of the mitochondrial gene dataset. 2. Materials and method Table 1 here 2.1. Sequence Mitochondrial genomes of 24 demosponges, 2 homoscleromorphs, 11 eumetazoans (including 9 cnidarians and 2 arthopods), 1 hexactinellid, and 1 outgroup Page 4 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t (choanoflagellate Monosiga brevicollis) were downloaded from Genbank for the phylogenetic analyses of this study (Table 1). Nucleotide sequences of the 12 coding genes are translated into protein sequences and each is individually aligned using the MEGA v4.0 (Tamura et al., 2007). Nucleotide sequences are subsequently aligned matching the animo acid (AA) sequence alignment. The 12 alignments are concatenated into a single matrix with 11526 nucleotide sites (Supplementary datafile). Table 2 here 2.2. Fossil calibration dates Based on their morphological characters and previous published data, nine fossil/geological dates are used for calibration in our divergence time estimation (Fig. 1, Table2). The root age prior, representing the divergence of Choanoflagellida-Metazoa, is set to 1000 Ma, which is a quite conservative maximum constraint as no true metazoan fossils (body, trace or biomarkers) have been confirmed to occur in older sediments; this date is also broadly compatible with previous phylochronological estimates, such as those in Peterson et al. (2008) and Sperling et al. (2010). In order to test the effects of root age prior, 1200 and 1500 Ma were also used in the dating analysis. The earliest monaxial demosponge spicules are found in the lower Cambrian Atdabanian strata worldwide (Bengtson et al., 1990; Gruber and Reitner, 1991; Rozanov and Zhuravlev, 1992; Zhang and Pratt, 1994; Xiao et al., 2005; Carrera and Botting, 2008). According to Xiao et al. (2005), the lower Cambrian monaxial sponges found in Anhui and Yunnan, South China, may be dated to 520 to 535 Ma. For calibrating the demosponge tree in this study, we use the minimum age of 520 Ma as the first appearance of monaxial demosponges. Because biomineralized animals have not been found before the Ediacaran Period (Gaidos et al., 2008), the maximum Page 5 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t age control for the first appearance of sponge spicules may be set to the base of Ediacaran Period at 635 Ma. The monaxon spicule was considered to be an ancestral character for demosponges based on the fossil (Reid, 1970) and molecular (Borchiellini et al., 2004) data, suggesting that the appearance of monaxon spicules may be represented by the stem lineage (therefore, representing node A, Fig. 1) or the crown lineages (therefore, representing node B) of spiculate demosponges (G3+G4, Fig. 1). These placements indicate these monaxons represented the earliest unquestionable biomineralization event in demosponges. On the other hand, these monaxial spicules morphologically resemble that of the crown lineage of G3 and G4 which made their first appearance in the fossil record synchronously during early–middle Cambrian (Rigby, 1986; Xiao et al., 2005), so they could also represent the crown lineage of G3 (node C) or G4 (node D). These alternative placements of the earliest monaxial sponge date as a calibration point will be subjected to a test via a likelihood method proposed by Pyron (2010) (see section 3.2. below). The oldest tetraxon demosponges appeared in middle Cambrian (van Kempen, 1985). This fossil provides a minimum age of about 515 Ma (Kruse, 2009) for a calibration of the crown-group Tetractinellida (Node M). Alternatively, we assigned the fossil to the stem lineage of Tetractinellida (Node N), considering the possibility that the tetraxon spicules could also represent a stem lineage, which will also be tested via the likelihood method of Pyron (2010). Table 3 here For other calibration points, we only provide the conservative age constraints for their stem lineages (Table 2) because of few sampled data, most of them having been discussed and used in previous studies (Benton and Donoghue, 2007; Park et al., 2012; shown in Fig. 1 and Table 2). All dates of calibration points were treated as softbound in this study. Page 6 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t 2.3. Evaluation of fossil calibration settings The lineages with well-established first appearances could serve as reference nodes (checkpoints) to probabilistically assess divergence time estimates and fossil calibration placement in the tree of life (Pyron, 2010). To evaluate which calibration sets were more internally consistent than others (Table 3), we implemented the likelihood method of Pyron (2010) to assess the placement of the sponge calibration sets using program BEAST (Drummond and Rambaut, 2007), with the calibrations of I, J, K, L, S, and Y (cnidarians and arthropods) used as the checkpoints in this study (Fig. 1), their fossil records being set as priors to calculate the joint probability densities under different calibration sets. Two parameters of lognormal distribution, Ñt(i) and σt(i), were calculated based on the equation 2a,b in Pyron (2010, p. 187), and the probability distributions (P(Ñt(i)) of checkpoints were calculated based on the equation of 3 and 4 (Pyron, 2010, p. 187). Finally, the Akaike information criterion (AIC; Akaike, 1974) was used to compare the relative fit of different calibration sets. 2.4. Phylogenetic and molecular dating analyses The program MrBayes 3 (Huelsenbeck and Ronquist, 2001; Ronquist and Huelsenbeck, 2003) and RaxML (Stamatakis, 2014) were used for phylogenetic reconstruction. A general time reversible (GTR) model with gamma-distributed rate heterogeneity and a proportion of invariant sites (GTR+I+G) inferred from Modeltest (Posada and Crandall, 1998) was used for the mitochondrial concatenated sequence. Based on previous studies (Benton and Donoghue, 2007; Park et al., 2012), the monophyletic constraints on the Eumetazoa and Cnidaria were forced in these analyses. Program BEAST v1.6.1 (Drummond and Rambaut, 2007) was used to estimate the divergence times under the uncorrelated lognormal relaxed-clock model with a Yule process prior on speciation (Drummond et al., 2006). Fossil calibrations were enforced as lognormal priors on the divergence node in concern. Analyses were run for 20 million generations, with the first 5 million discarded after calculating burn-in. Page 7 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t Convergence and chain length were assessed by assuring that the estimated sample sizes for all parameters were greater than 100 (Drummond et al., 2006). Runs were replicated several times to ensure that global stationarity had been reached and that individual analyses were not merely converging on local optima. Molecular dating analyses also were carried out via the program MCMCTREE (Yang, 2007). In MCMCTREE, the independent and auto-correlated rates models (clock = 2, 3) were used to specify the prior of rates under the GTR+I+G of substitution model. In order to test the effects of heterogeneous evolutionary rate in codon sites of mtDNA, different partitioning strategies of mtDNA were used in molecular dating analyses, including unpartitioned, 1+2 partitioned (the 3rd codon sites separate from other two) and codon partitioned analyses. 3. Results 3.1. Phylogenetic relationships Same topological trees of demosponge phylogeny with high support were obtained based on different strategies of sequence partition, and accord with previous studies (Borchiellini et al., 2004; Nichols, 2005; Lavrov et al., 2008), as shown in Fig. 1. Four strong supported major groups (G1-4) in Demospongiae were obtained: G1 is composed of keratose sponges (Dictyoceratida, Dendroceratida and Verticillitida), G2 is the Myxospongiae including Verongida, Chondrosida, and Halisarcida, G3 is marine Haplosclerida, and G4 is the remaining demosponges including Halichondria, Hadromerida, Poecilosclerida, and freshwater sponges (Haposclerida: Spongillina: Ephydatia). The phylogenetic position of Hexactinellida is not resolved; however, its phylogenetic position in the analysis does not affect the phylogenetic relationships and molecular dates within Demospongiae (result not shown). Fig. 1 here Page 8 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t 3.2. Test result of alternative placements of demosponge fossil calibrations (Table 3) Based on the fixed topology (Fig. 1), divergence times and the likelihood values of the checkpoints (i.e., the well-established reference fossil appearance dates) were estimated separately based on alternative calibration combination sets. As shown in Table 3, the alternative placements of the first appearance of monaxial demosponge spicules (for node A, B, C or D; Table 3) and of the tetraxon demosponges were evaluated against the checkpoints. The resulting likelihood and AIC values suggest that B for the first monaxial demospongeand M for the first tetraxon demosponge (-ln = 36, AIC = 74) are the best calibration combination among all other probable calibration plans in these analyses. 3.2. Effects of heterogenic molecular rates P- vs. ML-distance plots (Fig. 2) suggest that the whole mitochondrial coding sequences and codon positions 1 and 2 show no significant saturation, as compared with codon position 3 which may have experienced a degree of substantial saturation. Based on the correlated rate model, the molecular dates inferred from the unpartitioned dataset were different from those inferred from partitioned datasets, whereas no obvious difference is found between the different partitioned sets (including 3 codon partitions and 1+2 partitions) for most of the nodes; furthermore, the deletion of 3rd-codon did not yield outstanding effects on the results of divergence time estimation (Fig. 3). Likewise, the dating results for shallow nodes between 1+2 partition and 3 codon-partition datasets were not obviously different (Fig. 3). Therefore, it appears that, in the demosponge mitogenomic dataset, the effect of heterogenic rates on divergence time estimation is not outstanding. Fig. 2 here Page 9 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t 3.4. Phylochronology of demospongiae Estimates of divergence times with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the demosponge tree were obtained on the basis of various data partitions and molecular models via BEAST and MCMCTREE programs as shown in Fig. 3 and Table 4. Generally speaking, our divergence time estimates for demosponges are compatible with previously published dates in Peterson et al. (2008) and Sperling et al. (2010). For example, the divergence time of crown-group Demospongiae is estimated here to be 704 (674~741) Ma (Node A, MCMC-correlated model of 3 codon partition dataset), compared to ca. 692 Ma of Sperling et al. (2010); the spiculate demosponges (G3+G4; node B) diverged about 633 (616~647) Ma in this analysis versus 623 Ma in Sperling et al. (2010). We also found that demosponges with tetraxon-type spicules (Tetractinellida) originated at about 514 (498~530) Ma, an estimates comparable with the earliest tetraxial megasclere fossil records from Australia (van Kempen, 1985) (510~520 Ma, Ordian Age, middle Cambrian). Therefore, it may be postulated that, although Precambrian fossil demosponges are extremely sporadic or questionable, demosponge ancestors are deeply rooted in Ediacaran Period (Neoproterozoic) or earlier (Fig. 4). Fig. 3 here It is noted that different dating models yielded slightly different dating results (Table 4). Although we are not assessing the relative advantages of these models to our datasets, we may compare the congruence of the molecular time estimates with the earliest appearance dates of related fossils. For example, our dating results from MCMCTREE (Table 4) indicate that divergence times of crown groups Verongida (node H) and Dictyoceratida (node G) are pointed to earlier than 522 Ma during or before early Cambrian, which are compatible with their fossil appearances (Verongida in Cambrian according to Rigby, 1986; Dictyoceratida in Ordovician according to Botting, 2005); while corresponding time estimates via BEAST models point to dates younger than the their fossil ages, which is considered unlikely. Unless the cited fossil Page 10 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t designations are in error, we suggest that the MCMCTREE estimates in this case should be adopted, especially the MCMC-correlated model that yielded narrower confidence intervals for divergence nodes G and H (Fig. 3, Table 4). Table 4 here Time estimates via MCMC-correlated model also show that Keratosa (G1, Node G) appeared most likely during Cambrian Period at about 524 (426~587) Ma, compatible with their fossil records found in early Paleozoic (Rigby, 1986; Botting, 2005), rather than in late Paleozoic as suggested by estimates of Sperling et al. (2010) at 288 (194~377) Ma. 4. Discussions 4.1. Evaluation of fossil calibrations Accurate time estimation depends on reliable fossil calibrations as well as adequate models of molecular evolution. In order to evaluate the uncertainties in placing two early demosponge fossil appearances (the oldest monaxial sponge spicules and the oldest tetraxial sponge spicules; Table 2 and Fig. 1) on the tree in concern, we applied the checkpoint method of Pyron (2010), on the basis of six fossil appearance dates (nodes L, I, J, K, Y, S; Table 3), to compare the maximum likelihood of the joint probability of the checkpoints. According to this evaluation (age estimate and likelihood results in Table 3), we identified the optimum placements of the fossil calibration points among alternative schemes. Although we chose B-M calibration placement combination (Table 3) as most likely the best strategy on the basis of AIC values, i.e., to treat the earliest monaxial sponge spicules as the calibration point for the divergence node between demosponge groups G3 and G4 (node B; see Fig. 1) and to treat the first appearance of tetraxial sponge spicules as the calibration point for the Page 11 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t divergence of crown group Tetractinellida (node M), we note that the time estimates in Table 3 bear high level of uncertainties (wide CIs), probably due to low resolution of the tree in the deep phylogeny. 4.2. Effects of prior parameters of root age and molecular rate High heterogeneity of mitochondrial genomic evolutionary rate was found among different lineages, with significantly lower evolutionary rates in nonbilaterians including Demospongiae (except Keratosa), Homoscleromorpha, and Cnidaria (Fig. 5A). Fig. 5B-D shows the rate variation of the first and secondary codon sites of mitochondrial protein-coding genes, from 0.001 to 0.04 substitution per site per 100 million years (Fig. 5A, B), while the third codon sites have relative similar evolutionary rates among different lineages, 0.013 to 0.087 substitution per site per 100 million years (Fig. 5D), most likely indicating substitution saturation at this codon position. In order to evaluate the effects of rate heterogeneity, we applied rate priors at 1, 10 and 100 times of the rate estimates (by PAML, Yang, 2007), and found no significant effects on the divergence times (Table 5). We also experimented with changing root age priors at 1200 and 1500 Ma, and found no significant changes in the divergence date estimates (Table 5), either. Table 5 here 4.3. Biomineralization in demosponges Although there have been reports of earliest siliceous spicules in Precambrian, e.g., the Doushantuo Formation of China (Li et al., 1998), the Kuibis Formation of Namibia (Reitner and Wörheide, 2002) and the Tsagaan Oloom Formation of Mongolia (Brasier et al., 1997), and putative demosponge biomarkers in Neoproterozoic Cryogenian strata, their relation with true sponge spicules or demosponges is in question (Zhou et al., 1998; Yin et al., 2001). Well-confirmed sponge spicules appear in the lower Cambrian strata about 520 Ma (Bengtson et al., Page 12 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t 1990; Xiao et al., 2005; Carrera and Botting, 2008), and these earliest spicule fossils are thought to reflect the origination of demosponges in the fossil record (Brocks and Butterfield, 2009), likely representing the minimal time estimate for the origin of siliceous biomineralization. Spongin, the fibrous skeleton composed of modified collagen, is considered to be the primitive character in demosponges (Borcheilline et al., 2004; Nichols, 2005; Ma and Yang, 2007). The divergent timescale established in this study indicates that the crown-group of Demospongiae appeared about 700 Ma (node A, Fig. 1, Table 4), as also suggested by Sperling et al. (2010), which apparently agrees with the Cryogenian biomarkers (Loveet al., 2009). However, this early date could represent the presence of sponges without siliceous biomineralization. Thus, combining phylochronological and fossil analyses, we suggest that siliceous biomineralization in demosponges originated during Neoproterozoic, most likely derived from non-siliceous demosponge ancestors. If this is the true scenario for the origin of siliceous biomineralization in demosponges, it would suggest that the origin of siliceous mineralization in hexactinellids is a parallel, nonhomologous event, which is probable because the two groups possess different spicular morphological characters (tetraxial and monoaxial or triaxial), secretion mechanisms (sclerosyncytium or not), and shape of axial filaments in cross section (quadrangonal or tri- and hexagonal); in addition, demosponges and hexactinellids involve different molecular mechanisms in silicification (silicatein-based vs. chitin- and collagen-based) (Ehrlich, 2011). 5. Conclusion In this study, we used the relaxed molecular clock with tested fossil calibrations to estimate the early divergence time of demosponge crown groups and the silicification event in demosponges. Our dating result suggests that among all the models applied, the MCMCTREE-correlated model produced time estimations (cited in the following discussion) which are most congruent to the fossil appearance ages, as discussed under Phylochronology of Demospongiae. It is found that the crown group demosponges originated about 704 Ma (node A, Fig. 1, Table 4, Page 13 of 31 Ac ce pt ed M an us cr ip t MCMCTREE-correlated), probably representing non-mineralized sponges that may be hardly preserved as body fossils; spiculate sponges (G3 and G4) diverged about 633 Ma during the latest Neoproterozoic Ediacaran Period with the oldest confirmed fossil record in the lower Cambrian strata (about 520 Ma). This time interval (633~520 Ma) probably represents the time of origin of siliceous biomineralization in demosponges. Whether this apparent gap of 100+ Ma in fossil record is real, to be narrowed by future paleontological discoveries, or it may include over-estimation of time due to inadequacy in current molecular models and fossil calibration schemes, will be a subject for future investigations through interdisciplinary approaches.
