The complete chloroplast genome of Pinus squamata (Pinaceae), a critically endangered species in China.

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Pinus squamata, a critically endangered species in China, was reported in this study. The cp genome is 118,300?bp in length and has four regions: 65,298?bp of large single copy (LSC) region and 52,098?bp of small single copy (SSC) region separated by 452?bp of highly reduced inverted repeat (IR) regions. This cp genome with GC content of 38.8% contains 107 unique genes (73 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes). Phylogenetic analysis based on the complete cp genomes indicates that P. squamata is closer to P. gerardiana than P. bungeana.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Pinus wangii (Pinaceae), an endangered and endemic species in China.

Project description:The complete cp genome of Piuns wangii was 117,014 bp in size, containing a large single copy (LSC, 64,061 bp) region and a small single copy (SSC, 52,007 bp) region separated by two reduced inverted repeats (IRs, 473 bp). A total of 107 genes were predicted, including 73 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Most of the 51 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were mononucleotides motifs of A/T types and were found to be located in non-coding regions. Phylogenetic analysis of Asian Pinus showed P. wangii clustered a strongly-supported clade with Pinus morrisonicola, Pinus sibirica, Pinus wallichiana, and Pinus pumila.

The complete chloroplast genome of the Abies yuanbaoshanensis, an endangered Pinaceae species in Southern China.

Project description:Abies yuanbaoshanensis is critically endangered and endemic to Guangxi province of China, with no more than 900 surviving individuals. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. yuanbaoshanensis. The complete chloroplast genome is 121897 bp in size. In total, 112 genes were identified, including 74 protein-coding genes, 34tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. In phylogenetic analysis, the tree supported the monophyly of the genus Abies. The complete plastome of A. yuanbaoshanensis will provide potential genetic resources for further conservation and evolutionary studies of this highly endangered species.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Abies chensiensis (Pinaceae: Abietoideae), an endangered species endemic to China.

Project description:Chloroplast (cp) genome sequences became a widely used tool for evolutionary and phylogenetic studies in plants. Abies chensiensis (Pinaceae: Abietoideae) is an endangered species endemic to China. To understand its evolutionary characteristics, the complete chloroplast genome of the A. chensiensis has been reconstructed from the whole-genome Illumina sequencing data. The circular genome is 121,784?bp in length and without a typical quadripartite structure due to the loss of IR region. The total GC content of whole genome sequence is 38.3%. The chloroplast genome encodes 109 genes, including 75 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA genes and four ribosomal RNA genes. Among them, 35 genes involved in photosynthesis, while 58 genes involved in self-replication. The Maximum-Likelihood phylogenetic analysis showed a strong sister relationship with A. nephrolepis and A. koreana in Abietoideae. Our findings provide fundamental information for further evolutionary and phylogenetic researches of Abietoideae.

The complete chloroplast genome of Keteleeria davidiana var. calcarea (Pinaceae), an endangered species endemic to China.

Project description:Keteleeria davidiana var. calcarea is an endangered tree with considerable economic potential that used as timber wood for furniture and house construction. However, the natural population of K. davidiana var. calcarea is very fragmented, which is the cause for its low genetic diversity. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of K. davidiana var. calcarea using Illumina sequencing. The chloroplast genome size is 117,670 bp in length, harboring a pair of very short inverted repeats (IRs) of 262 bp separated by a large single copy (LSC) sequence of 64,634 bp and a small single copy (SSC) sequence of 53,078 bp. The chloroplast genome K. davidiana var. calcarea contains 113 genes (74 protein genes, 35 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes) and the overall GC content is 38.6%. The maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis shows that K. davidiana var. calcarea is clustered with K. davidiana in genus Keteleeria. This complete chloroplast genome will help us to understand the evolution of K. davidiana var. calcarea and lays the foundations for future studies in this species conservation.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Pinus cembra L. (Pinaceae).

Project description:The Swiss pine (Pinus cembra) is a montane tree in Central Europe and, therefore, known for its hardiness against severe winter colds. The seeds are harvested and eaten as pine nuts. We assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of P. cembra to serve as a valuable resource in future genetic studies. The complete plastome sequence is 116,609?bp in length and contains 113 genes including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. A phylogenetic analysis of 34 Pinus plastome sequences shows that Pinus sibirica is the nearest relative to P. cembra and that there is a distinct clustering together with the other members of the section Quinquefoliae.

The complete chloroplast genome of Lonicera oblata, a critically endangered species endemic to North China.

Project description:Lonicera oblata, a critically endangered species endemic to North China with about 30 wild individuals, has long been ignored for conservation since its publication because of little attention on its living situation. In this study, we characterized the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of L. oblata. The cp genome was 155,481 bp in length, included a large single-copy (LSC) region of 89,139 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,676 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 23,833 bp each. The genome contains 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic position of L. oblata was also investigated based on cp genome phylogeny of Lonicera representatives. This study is valuable for molecular phylogenetic study and conservation of Lonicera and related taxa.
