Twenty microsatellite markers for the endangered Vatica mangachapoi (Dipterocarpaceae).

ABSTRACT: PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Microsatellite markers were developed for Vatica mangachapoi (Dipterocarpaceae), an endangered species indigenous to Southeast Asia and southern China. METHODS AND RESULTS:Twenty microsatellite markers, including 12 polymorphic markers, were identified from V. mangachapoi using high-throughput sequencing. Polymorphism at each marker was evaluated using 87 individuals from three natural populations. The number of alleles per polymorphic locus ranged from six to 15, and the observed and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.000 to 0.926 and from 0.177 to 0.864, respectively. These markers were transferred successfully to the endangered species V. guangxiensis. CONCLUSIONS:These markers may be used to investigate the genetic diversity and gene flow of V. mangachapoi and V. guangxiensis.

A chromosome-scale genome and transcriptomic analysis of the endangered tropical tree Vatica mangachapoi (Dipterocarpaceae).

Project description:Vatica mangachapoi is a tropical tree species native to Southeast Asia. It has long been valued as a timber species because the wood resists decay, but it is now considered vulnerable to extinction due to habitat loss and overexploitation. Here, we present the first chromosome-level genome assembly of V. mangachapoi that we created by combining data from PacBio long read sequencing with Hi-C proximity ligation and Illumina short-read sequencing. The assembled genome was 456.21 Mb, containing 11 chromosome and a BUSCO score of 93.4%. From the newly assembled genome, 46,811 protein-coding genes were predicted. Repetitive DNA accounted for 53% of the genome. Phylogenomic and gene family analyses showed that V. mangachapoi diverged from a common ancestor of Gossypium raimondii 70 million years ago. Transcriptome analyses found 227 genes that were differentially expressed in the leaves of plants grown in normal soil relative to plants grown in dry, coastal, sandy soil. For these genes, we identified three significantly enriched with GO terms: responses to organonitrogen compounds, chitin-triggered immunity, and wound response. This genome provides an important comparative benchmark not only for future conservation work on V. mangachapoi but also for phylogenomics work on Dipterocarpaceae.

Isolation and characterization of twelve polymorphic microsatellite markers in the endangered <i>Hopea hainanensis</i> (Dipterocarpaceae).

Project description:Microsatellite markers were isolated and characterized for Hopea hainanensis Merrill & Chun, an endangered tree species with scattered distribution in Hainan Island and northern Vietnam. Twenty-six microsatellite markers were developed based on next-generation sequencing data and were genotyped by capillary electrophoresis on an ABI 3730xl DNA Analyzer. Twelve markers were found to be polymorphic in H. hainanensis. GENODIVE analyses indicated that the number of alleles ranged from 2 to 6 per locus, and the observed and expected heterozygosity varied from 0 to 0.755 and from 0.259 to 0.779, respectively. Primer transferability was tested with Hopea chinensis Hand.-Mazz. and Hopea reticulata Tardieu, in which 3 and 7 microsatellite markers were found to be polymorphic, separately. The results showed that H. reticulata and H. hainanensis had similar levels of genetic diversity. A neighbor joining dendrogram clustered all individuals into two major groups, one of which was exclusively constituted by H. hainanensis, while the other consisted of two subgroups, corresponding to H. reticulata and H. chinensis, respectively. The 12 polymorphic microsatellite markers could be applied to study genetic diversity, population differentiation, mating system, and fine-scale spatial genetic structures of H. hainanensis as well as its close relatives, facilitating the conservation and restoration of these endangered but valuable Hopea species.

Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers for Shorea platyclados (Dipterocarpaceae).

Project description:Microsatellite markers were isolated and characterized in Shorea platyclados (Dipterocarpaceae) for DNA profiling and genetic diversity assessment of this tropical timber species. • Fifteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed and characterized in S. platyclados using a genomic library enriched for dinucleotide (CT) repeats. The primers amplified dinucleotide repeats with 3-14 alleles per locus across four natural populations. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.292 to 1.000 and from 0.301 to 0.894, respectively. No significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was detected in the 15 loci. Four loci pairs displayed linkage disequilibrium. • These highly polymorphic markers are adequate for DNA profiling and studies of population genetics in S. platyclados.

Twenty novel polymorphic microsatellite primers in the critically endangered Melastoma tetramerum var. tetramerum (Melastomataceae).

Project description:Microsatellite markers were identified for Melastoma tetramerum var. tetramerum (Melastomataceae), a critically endangered shrub endemic to the Bonin Islands, to reveal genetic characteristics in wild and restored populations. Using next-generation sequencing, 27 microsatellite markers were identified. Twenty of these markers were polymorphic in M. tetramerum var. tetramerum, with two to nine alleles per locus and expected heterozygosity ranging from 0.10 to 0.71. Among the 20 polymorphic markers, 15 were applicable to other closely related taxa, namely M. tetramerum var. pentapetalum, M. candidum var. candidum, and M. candidum var. alessandrense. These markers can be potentially useful to investigate the genetic diversity, population genetic structure, and reproductive ecology of M. tetramerum var. tetramerum as well as of the three related taxa to provide appropriate genetic information for conservation.

Development of chloroplast microsatellite markers for the endangered Maianthemum bicolor (Asparagaceae s.l.).

Project description:PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Ten polymorphic chloroplast microsatellite (cpSSR) markers were developed and characterized in an endemic and endangered herb, Maianthemum bicolor (Asparagaceae s.l.), for use in conservation genetics. METHODS AND RESULTS:Primer sets flanking each of the 10 cpSSR loci in noncoding regions of the chloroplast genome of M. bicolor were designed. These cpSSR markers were tested on a total of 33 adult individuals from three natural populations in South Korea. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to three. The unbiased haplotype diversity per locus ranged from 0.061 to 0.682. All markers were successfully transferred to the congeneric species M. japonicum, M. bifolium, and M. dilatatum with polymorphisms among the species. CONCLUSIONS:The developed cpSSR markers will be useful in assessing the genetic diversity and population structure of M. bicolor and will help to infer its molecular identification, thereby providing a basis for conservation.

Characterization of polymorphic microsatellite markers for the Japanese endangered land snail Mandarina.

Project description:ObjectiveMandarina is an endangered land snail genus of the oceanic Ogasawara archipelago. On Chichijima Island, the largest inhabited island in Ogasawara, this genus is almost extinct in the wild due to predation by invasive species. Although ex situ conservation programs started in 2010, genetic diversity and population structure remain unclear due to a lack of genetic markers with sufficient genetic variation. In this study, we designed polymorphic microsatellite markers of Mandarina to enable genetic analysis and to develop appropriate conservation plans.ResultsTwenty-three polymorphic microsatellite markers were identified from the genomic DNA of wild samples of Mandarina mandarina. We assessed the genetic diversity of each marker. In 16 markers, neither linkage disequilibrium nor deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was detected. These 16 markers were tested for multiplex PCR using low-density DNA extracted non-lethally from captive samples of M. mandarina, M. chichijimana and M. suenoae. Of the 16 markers, 15, 12 and 9 were usable for multiplex PCR, respectively. Genetic analysis using these microsatellite loci will be an important resource for the conservation of Mandarina.
