Complete Plastid Genome Sequencing of Eight Species from Hansenia, Haplosphaera and Sinodielsia (Apiaceae): Comparative Analyses and Phylogenetic Implications.

ABSTRACT: Hansenia Turcz., Haplosphaera Hand.-Mazz. and Sinodielsia H.Wolff are three Apiaceae genera endemic to the Hengduan Mountains and the Himalayas, which usually inhabit elevations greater than 2000 m. The phylogenetic relationships between and within the genera were uncertain, especially the placement of Hap. himalayensis and S. microloba. Therefore, we aimed to conduct comparative (simple sequence repeat (SSR) structure, codon usage bias, nucleotide diversity (Pi) and inverted repeat (IR) boundaries) and phylogenetic analyses of Hansenia, Haplosphaera and Sinodielsia (also compared with Chamaesium and Bupleurum) to reduce uncertainties in intergeneric and interspecific relationships. We newly assembled eight plastid genomes from Hansenia, Haplosphaera and Sinodielsia species, and analyzed them with two plastid genomes from GenBank of Hap. phaea,S. yunnanensis. Phylogenetic analyses used these ten genomes and another 22 plastid genome sequences of Apiaceae. We found that the newly assembled eight genomes ranged from 155,435 bp to 157,797 bp in length and all had a typical quadripartite structure. Fifty-five to 75 SSRs were found in Hansenia, Haplosphaera and Sinodielsia species, and the most abundant SSR was mononucleotide, which accounted for 58.47% of Hansenia, 60.21% of Haplosphaera and 48.01% of Sinodielsia. There was no evident divergence of codon usage frequency between the three genera, where codons ranged from 21,134 to 21,254. The Pi analysis showed that trnE(UUC)-trnT(GGU), trnH(GUG)-psbA and trnE(UUC)-trnT(GGU) spacer regions had the highest Pi values in the plastid genomes of Hansenia (0.01889), Haplosphaera (0.04333) and Sinodielsia (0.01222), respectively. The ndhG-ndhI spacer regions were found in all three genera to have higher diversity values (Pi values: 0.01028-0.2), and thus may provide potential DNA barcodes in phylogenetic analysis. IR boundary analysis showed that the length of rps19 and ycf1 genes entering IRs were usually stable in the same genus. Our phylogenetic tree demonstrated that Hap. himalayensis is sister to Han. weberbaueriana; meanwhile, Haplosphaera and Hansenia are nested together in the East Asia clade, and S. microloba is nested within individuals of S. yunnanensis in the Acronema clade. This study will enrich the complete plastid genome dataset of the Apiaceae genera and has provided a new insight into phylogeny reconstruction using complete plastid genomes of Hansenia, Haplosphaera and Sinodielsia.

Project description:Prangos fedtschenkoi (Regel & Schmalh.) Korovin and P. lipskyi Korovin (Apiaceae) are rare plant species endemic to mountainous regions of Middle Asia. Both are edificators of biotic communities and valuable resource plants. The results of recent phylogenetic analyses place them in Prangos subgen. Koelzella (M. Hiroe) Lyskov & Pimenov and suggest they may possibly represent sister species. To aid in development of molecular markers useful for intraspecific phylogeographic and population-level genetic studies of these ecologically and economically important plants, we determined their complete plastid genome sequences and compared the results obtained to several previously published plastomes of Apiaceae. The plastomes of P. fedtschenkoi and P. lipskyi are typical of Apiaceae and most other higher plant plastid DNAs in their sizes (153,626 and 154,143 bp, respectively), structural organization, gene arrangement, and gene content (with 113 unique genes). A total of 49 and 48 short sequence repeat (SSR) loci of 10 bp or longer were detected in P. fedtschenkoi and P. lipskyi plastomes, respectively, representing 42-43 mononucleotides and 6 AT dinucleotides. Seven tandem repeats of 30 bp or longer with a sequence identity ≥90% were identified in each plastome. Further comparisons revealed 319 polymorphic sites between the plastomes (IR, 21; LSC, 234; SSC, 64), representing 43.8% transitions (Ts), 56.1% transversions (Tv), and a Ts/Tv ratio of 0.78. Within genic regions, two indel events were observed in rpoA (6 and 51 bp) and ycf1 (3 and 12 bp), and one in ndhF (6 bp). The most variable intergenic spacer region was that of accD/psaI, with 21.1% nucleotide divergence. Each Prangos species possessed one of two separate inversions (either 5 bp in ndhB intron or 9 bp in petB intron), and these were predicted to form hairpin structures with flanking repeat sequences of 18 and 19 bp, respectively. Both species have also incorporated novel DNA in the LSC region adjacent to the LSC/IRa junction, and BLAST searches revealed it had a 100 bp match (86% sequence identity) to noncoding mitochondrial DNA. Prangos-specific primers were developed for the variable accD/psaI intergenic spacer and preliminary PCR-surveys suggest that this region will be useful for future phylogeographic and population-level studies.

Project description:We analyzed the complete chloroplast genomes of eight Orostachys species and compared the sequences to those of published chloroplast genomes of the congeneric and closely related genera, Meterostachys and Hylotelephium. The total chloroplast genome length of thirteen species, including the eight species analyzed in this study and the five species analyzed in previous studies, ranged from 149,860 (M. sikokianus) to 151,707 bp (H. verticillatum). The overall GC contents of the genomes were almost identical (37.6 to 37.8%). The thirteen chloroplast genomes each contained 113 unique genes comprising 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Among the annotated genes, sixteen genes contained one or two introns. Although the genome structures of all Orostachys and Hylotelephium species were identical, Meterostachys differed in structure due to a relatively large gene block (trnS-GCU-trnS-GGA) inversion. The nucleotide diversity among the subsect. Orostachys chloroplast genomes was extremely low in all regions, and among the subsect. Appendiculatae, genus Orostachys, and all thirteen chloroplast genomes showed high values of Pi (>0.03) in one, five, or three regions. The phylogenetic analysis showed that Orostachys formed polyphyly, and subsect. Orostachys and Appendiculatae were clustered with Hylotelephium and Meterostachys, respectively, supporting the conclusion that each subsection should be considered as an independent genus. Furthermore, the data supported the taxonomic position of O. margaritifolia and O. iwarenge f. magnus, which were treated as synonyms for O. iwarenge in a previous study, as independent taxa. Our results suggested that O. ramosa and O. japonica f. polycephala were individual variations of O. malacophylla and O. japonica, respectively. The exact taxonomic position of O. latielliptica and the phylogenetic relationship among the three species, O. chongsunensis, O. malacophylla and O. ramosa, should be a topic of future study.
