The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Blastus pauciflorus (Melastomataceae).

ABSTRACT: Blastus pauciflorus, a shrub endemic to Hong Kong and Guangdong, south China, growing on low-altitude hillsides, under the forest. The species is controversial in classification. Herein, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequence assembled from Illumina pair-end sequencing data, with aims to resolve its relationship with the related species. The complete chloroplast genome was 155,983?bp in length, includes two inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,716?bp each, which were separated by a large single copy region (LSC) 86,101?bp and a small single copy region (SSC) 16,450?bp. The chloroplast genome contained 129 genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 2 pseudogenes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content in the chloroplast genome of B. pauciflorus was 37.0%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that B. pauciflorus is closed to B. cochinchinensis.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Melastoma candidum (Melastomataceae).

Project description:The plant genus Melastoma is comprised of members estimated to have formed through recent species radiation. Natural hybridization among member species further complicates taxonomy within the genus. Herein, we report the complete chloroplast genome of M. candidum, assembled from partial data obtained from a parallel whole-genome Illumina paired-end sequencing effort on the species. The chloroplast genome was 156,682?bp in length, with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 86,084?bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,094?bp, separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,752?bp each. It was predicted to contain a total of 129 genes, with an overall GC content of 37.17%. Phylogenetic analysis placed M. candidum in the same clade as species within the Melastomeae tribe of Melastomataceae.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Blastus cochinchinensis (Melastomataceae).

Project description:Blastus Lour. belongs to tribe Sonerileae (Melastomataceae), comprising about 18 species worldwide. Herein, we presented, assembled, and annotated the first complete chloroplast genome of Blastus (B. cochinchinensis). The complete chloroplast genome (cp) size of B. cochinchinensis was 156,005?bp in length, containing a pair of 26,812?bp inverted repeat (IR) regions, which were separated by a large single-copy region (LSC) 85,926?bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region 16,455?bp. The overall GC content of the genome was 37.0%. The whole genome contained 129 unique genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that B. cochinchinens was sister to Barthea barthei. The present study provided B. cochinchinensis genomic information that may be found useful in conservation and molecular phylogenetic studies on Blastus.
