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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Project description:Pinus tabuliformis var. henryi (Mast.) C.T.Kuan 1983 is an endemic and rare subtropical pine, mainly distributed in central China. In this study, we sequenced the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. tabuliformis var. henryi and reported it for the first time. The cp genome was 119,634 base pairs (bp) in total length, including two inverted repeats (IRs, 495 bp), separated by a large single-copy region (LSC, 65,600 bp) and a small single-copy region (SSC, 53,044 bp). There are 114 different genes in the cp genome of P. tabuliformis var. henryi, including 74 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA genes, and four ribosomal RNA genes. The overall GC content of the cp genome was 38.5%. Our phylogenetic analysis of P. tabuliformis var. henryi demonstrated that it was closely related to P. tabuliformis and could be used to identify and analyze its genetic diversity, which was expected to provide new data for taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of Pinus.

Complete Chloroplast Genome of Pinus massoniana (Pinaceae): Gene Rearrangements, Loss of ndh Genes, and Short Inverted Repeats Contraction, Expansion.

Project description:The chloroplast genome (CPG) of Pinus massoniana belonging to the genus Pinus (Pinaceae), which is a primary source of turpentine, was sequenced and analyzed in terms of gene rearrangements, ndh genes loss, and the contraction and expansion of short inverted repeats (IRs). P. massoniana CPG has a typical quadripartite structure that includes large single copy (LSC) (65,563 bp), small single copy (SSC) (53,230 bp) and two IRs (IRa and IRb, 485 bp). The 108 unique genes were identified, including 73 protein-coding genes, 31 tRNAs, and 4 rRNAs. Most of the 81 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) identified in CPG were mononucleotides motifs of A/T types and located in non-coding regions. Comparisons with related species revealed an inversion (21,556 bp) in the LSC region; P. massoniana CPG lacks all 11 intact ndh genes (four ndh genes lost completely; the five remained truncated as pseudogenes; and the other two ndh genes remain as pseudogenes because of short insertions or deletions). A pair of short IRs was found instead of large IRs, and size variations among pine species were observed, which resulted from short insertions or deletions and non-synchronized variations between "IRa" and "IRb". The results of phylogenetic analyses based on whole CPG sequences of 16 conifers indicated that the whole CPG sequences could be used as a powerful tool in phylogenetic analyses.

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.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence and comparative analysis of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) with related species.

Project description:Pinaceae, the largest family of conifers, has a diversified organization of chloroplast (cp) genomes with two typical highly reduced inverted repeats (IRs). In the current study, we determined the complete sequence of the cp genome of an economically and ecologically important conifer tree, the loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.), using Illumina paired-end sequencing and compared the sequence with those of other pine species. The results revealed a genome size of 121,531 base pairs (bp) containing a pair of 830-bp IR regions, distinguished by a small single copy (42,258 bp) and large single copy (77,614 bp) region. The chloroplast genome of P. taeda encodes 120 genes, comprising 81 protein-coding genes, four ribosomal RNA genes, and 35 tRNA genes, with 151 randomly distributed microsatellites. Approximately 6 palindromic, 34 forward, and 22 tandem repeats were found in the P. taeda cp genome. Whole cp genome comparison with those of other Pinus species exhibited an overall high degree of sequence similarity, with some divergence in intergenic spacers. Higher and lower numbers of indels and single-nucleotide polymorphism substitutions were observed relative to P. contorta and P. monophylla, respectively. Phylogenomic analyses based on the complete genome sequence revealed that 60 shared genes generated trees with the same topologies, and P. taeda was closely related to P. contorta in the subgenus Pinus. Thus, the complete P. taeda genome provided valuable resources for population and evolutionary studies of gymnosperms and can be used to identify related species.

The Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of a Relict Conifer Glyptostrobus pensilis: Comparative Analysis and Insights into Dynamics of Chloroplast Genome Rearrangement in Cupressophytes and Pinaceae.

Project description:Glyptostrobus pensilis, belonging to the monotypic genus Glyptostrobus (Family: Cupressaceae), is an ancient conifer that is naturally distributed in low-lying wet areas. Here, we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence (132,239 bp) of G. pensilis. The G. pensilis cp genome is similar in gene content, organization and genome structure to the sequenced cp genomes from other cupressophytes, especially with respect to the loss of the inverted repeat region A (IRA). Through phylogenetic analysis, we demonstrated that the genus Glyptostrobus is closely related to the genus Cryptomeria, supporting previous findings based on physiological characteristics. Since IRs play an important role in stabilize cp genome and conifer cp genomes lost different IR regions after splitting in two clades (cupressophytes and Pinaceae), we performed cp genome rearrangement analysis and found more extensive cp genome rearrangements among the species of cupressophytes relative to Pinaceae. Additional repeat analysis indicated that cupressophytes cp genomes contained less potential functional repeats, especially in Cupressaceae, compared with Pinaceae. These results suggested that dynamics of cp genome rearrangement in conifers differed since the two clades, Pinaceae and cupressophytes, lost IR copies independently and developed different repeats to complement the residual IRs. In addition, we identified 170 perfect simple sequence repeats that will be useful in future research focusing on the evolution of genetic diversity and conservation of genetic variation for this endangered species in the wild.
