The complete chloroplast genome of alien invasive species, Diodia virginiana L. (rubiaceae), in China.

ABSTRACT: The first complete chloroplast genome sequences of new intercepted alien weeds in China, Diodia, were reported in this study. The D. virginiana plastome was 154,387?bp long, with the large single copy (LSC) region of 83,625?bp, the small single copy (SSC) region of 17,475?bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,643?bp. The plastome contained 137 genes, including 92 proteincoding, eight ribosomal RNA, and 37 transfer RNA genes. The overall GC content was 37.2%. Phylogenetic analysis of 24 representative plastomes within the order Gentianales suggests that subfamily Cinchonoideae is closely related to subfamily Ixoroideae compared with subfamily Rubioideae in Rubiaceae. Tribe Spermacoceae was most closely related to Rubieae among the three representative groups of subfamily Rubioideae.

Zoonotic parasites carried by invasive alien species in China.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The invasive alien species may lead to great environmental and economic crisis due to its strong capability of occupying the biological niche of native species and altering the ecosystem of the invaded area. However, its potential to serve as the vectors of some specific zoonotic pathogens, especially parasites, has been neglected. Thus, the damage that it may cause has been hugely underestimated in this aspect, which is actually an important public health problem. This paper aims to discuss the current status of zoonotic parasites carried by invasive alien species in China. MAIN BODY:This review summarizes the reported zoonotic parasites carried by invasive alien species in China based on the Database of Invasive Alien Species in China. We summarize their prevalence, threat to human health, related reported cases, and the roles of invasive alien species in the life cycle of these parasites, and the invasion history of some invasive alien species. Furthermore, we sum up the current state of prevention and control of invasive alien species in China, and discuss about the urgency and several feasible strategies for the prevention and control of these zoonoses under the background of booming international communications and inevitable globalization. CONCLUSIONS:Information of the zoonotic parasites carried by invasive alien species neither in China or worldwide, especially related case reports, is limited due to a long-time neglection and lack of monitoring. The underestimation of their damage requires more attention to the monitoring and control and compulsory measures should be taken to control the invasive alien species carrying zoonotic parasites.

The complete chloroplast genome of newly alien medicinal and toxic species, Zaleya pentandra (L.) C.Jeffrey (Aizoaceae), in China.

Project description:The first complete chloroplast genome sequences of new intercepted alien weeds in China, pentandra (L.) C. Jeffrey, were reported in this study. The Z. pentandra plastome was 153,239?bp long, with the large single copy (LSC) region of 83,528?bp, the small single copy (SSC) region of 18,081?bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,815?bp. The plastome contained 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding, 8 ribosomal RNA, and 37 transfer RNA genes. The overall GC content was 37.0%. Phylogenetic analysis of 32 representative plastomes within the family Aizoaceae suggests that Zaleya is more closely related to Tetragonia than to Sesuvium which is different previous studies. However, due to the limited chloroplast genome accessions in Aizoaceae at present, the phylogenetic relationship between the subfamilies of the family cannot be further discussed.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Quercus virginiana Mill. (Fagaceae).

Project description:The complete chloroplast genome of Quercus virginiana was sequenced with Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. It was a typical quadruple structure as other plants of Quercus with 161,221 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC: 90,553 bp) region and a small single-copy (SSC: 19,016 bp) which were separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRa, b: 25,826 bp) region. The overall GC content is 36.9%. A total of 131 genes was annotated which contained 86 protein-coding genes including the Trans splicing gene of rps12, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. ML phylogenetic analysis compared with 17 expressed chloroplast genomes revealed that Q. virginiana was a sister to other species of Quercus, which were grouped together with five species of Section Quercus and another 12 species of Quercus were divided into another group.

The complete chloroplast genome of Coffea liberica (Gentianales: Rubiaceae).

Project description:Coffee is one of the most popular beverages around the world. As one of the best-known coffee species, Liberian coffee (Coffea liberica Bull ex Hiern 1876) has a high resistance to leaf rust, a devasting disease caused by Hemileia vastatrix. However, there are few reports on the systematic position and phylogenetic relationship of C. liberica at the chloroplast (cp) genome level. Thus, we successfully assembled its cp genome. The full length is 154,799 bp with a GC content of 37.48%. We have further annotated the cp genome and predicted 85 protein-coding genes together with 8 rRNAs and 37 tRNAs. Furthermore, a large single copy region (LSC), a small single copy region (SSC), an inverted repeat region a (IRa) and an inverted repeat region b (IRb) are identified with lengths of 84,868 bp, 18,121 bp, 25,905 bp and 25,905 bp, respectively. The phylogenetic tree indicates that C. liberica is closely related to C. canephora, which is consistent with a previous result obtained from genotyping-by-sequencing.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of 'Field Muskmelon,' an invasive weed to China.

Project description:Cucumis melo L. var. agrestis Naud., commonly known as 'Field Muskmelon,' is an annual invasive weed in many parts of China. However, there is very little available information about the chloroplast genome of this species. Here, we first report and characterize its complete chloroplast genome sequence based on Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The complete plastid genome was 155,402 bp, which contained inverted repeats (IR) of 25,514 bp separated by a large single-copy (LSC) and a small single copy (SSC) of 86,287 bp and 18,087 bp, respectively. The complete chloroplast genome contains 133 genes, comprising 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes and 1 pseudogene. The overall GC content of the plastome is 36.9%. The phylogenetic analysis of 16 selected chloroplast genomes demonstrated that C. melo var. agrestis Naud was close to congeneric species C. xhytivus.

Project description:Psychotria asiatica is a typical traditional medicinal plant. Herein, we acquired and characterized the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of P. asiatica to provide genomic resources for conservation genetics and phylogenetic studies of P. asiatica. The cp genome of P. asiatica is 154,652 bp in length and consists of a large single-copy (LSC) region with 85,106 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region with 17,960 bp, and two inverted repeat regions (IRs) with 25,793 bp. The cp genome of P. asiatica comprises 127 genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic result confirmed that P. asiatica was closely related to Psychotria kirkii within the Rubiaceae.
