Complete plastid genome of Rhododendron griersonianum, a critically endangered plant with extremely small populations (PSESP) from southwest China.

ABSTRACT: The complete plastid genome of Rhododendron griersonianum, a critically endangered plant species with extremely small populations, was obtained using Illumina HiSeq X Ten and ONT PromethION sequencing. The full length of the plastid genome is 206,467 bp with an overall GC content of 35.8%, which encodes 118 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all Rhododendron species formed a monophyletic clade. This study provides a valuable reference and will facilitate future studies related to the general characteristics and evolution of plastid genomes in the genus Rhododendron.

The first complete chloroplast genome of Coptis quinquesecta, a critically endangered medicinal plant in China.

Project description:Coptis quinquesecta, serving as a valuable medicinal plant, is a critically endangered and national key protected species of China. In the past, researches regarding this species mainly focused on its medicinal ingredients, whereas little effort has been made on its genetic information. Here we determined the first complete chloroplast genome of C. quinquesecta using genome skimming approach. The cp genome was 154,549?bp long, with a large single-copy region (LSC) of 84,409?bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 17,256?bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,442?bp. It encodes 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA genes, and four ribosomal RNA genes. Besides, we reconstructed the phylogeny of Ranunculaceae based on the previously reported cp genomes of related taxa. A maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Hydrastidoideae, Coptidoideae, and Thalictroideae, while Ranunculoideae was found to be paraphyletic.

Genetic diversity and structure of Rhododendron meddianum, a plant species with extremely small populations.

Project description:Rhododendron meddianum is a critically endangered species with important ornamental value and is also a plant species with extremely small populations. In this study, we used double digest restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD) technology to assess the genetic diversity, genetic structure and demographic history of the three extant populations of R. meddianum. Analysis of SNPs indicated that R. meddianum populations have a high genetic diversity (π = 0.0772 ± 0.0024, H E = 0.0742 ± 0.002). Both F ST values (0.1582-0.2388) and AMOVA showed a moderate genetic differentiation among the R. meddianum populations. Meanwhile, STRUCTURE, PCoA and NJ trees indicated that the R. meddianum samples were clustered into three distinct genetic groups. Using the stairway plot, we found that R. meddianum underwent a population bottleneck about 70,000 years ago. Furthermore, demographic models of R. meddianum and its relative, Rhododendron cyanocarpum, revealed that these species diverged about 3.05 (2.21-5.03) million years ago. This divergence may have been caused by environmental changes that occurred after the late Pliocene, e.g., the Asian winter monsoon intensified, leading to a drier climate. Based on these findings, we recommend that R. meddianum be conserved through in situ, ex situ approaches and that its seeds be collected for germplasm.

De novo genome assembly of the endangered Acer yangbiense, a plant species with extremely small populations endemic to Yunnan Province, China.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Acer yangbiense is a newly described critically endangered endemic maple tree confined to Yangbi County in Yunnan Province in Southwest China. It was included in a programme for rescuing the most threatened species in China, focusing on "plant species with extremely small populations (PSESP)". FINDINGS:We generated 64, 94, and 110 Gb of raw DNA sequences and obtained a chromosome-level genome assembly of A. yangbiense through a combination of Pacific Biosciences Single-molecule Real-time, Illumina HiSeq X, and Hi-C mapping, respectively. The final genome assembly is ?666 Mb, with 13 chromosomes covering ?97% of the genome and scaffold N50 sizes of 45 Mb. Further, BUSCO analysis recovered 95.5% complete BUSCO genes. The total number of repetitive elements account for 68.0% of the A. yangbiense genome. Genome annotation generated 28,320 protein-coding genes, assisted by a combination of prediction and transcriptome sequencing. In addition, a nearly 1:1 orthology ratio of dot plots of longer syntenic blocks revealed a similar evolutionary history between A. yangbiense and grape, indicating that the genome has not undergone a whole-genome duplication event after the core eudicot common hexaploidization. CONCLUSION:Here, we report a high-quality de novo genome assembly of A. yangbiense, the first genome for the genus Acer and the family Aceraceae. This will provide fundamental conservation genomics resources, as well as representing a new high-quality reference genome for the economically important Acer lineage and the wider order of Sapindales.

The whole cp genome of R. platypodum contains 143 genes, including 93 protein-coding genes, 42 transfer RNA genes and 8 ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on the coding sequences of cp genome within the Ericaceae family suggests that R. platypodum is closely related to R. delavayi.
