The complete mitochondrial genome of a mangrove associated plant: Sesuvium portulacastrum and its phylogenetic implications.

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of mangrove associated plant: Sesuvium portulacastrum was analyzed in this paper, which is the first for the genus within the family Aizoaceae. The mitogenome sequence is 392,221 bp in length containing six ribosomal RNA genes, 27 transfer RNA genes, and 36 protein-coding genes. Gene nad1, nad2 and nad5 are the trans-splicing genes. One intron is found in gene ccmFc, two introns are found in genes nad4 and rps3, and four introns are found in gene nad7. Phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method positioned S. portulacastrum within the monophyletic clades of the family Aizoaceae.

The complete mitochondrial genome of an endangered mangrove plant: <i>Scyphiphora hydrophyllacea</i>.

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of an endangered mangrove plant: Scyphiphora hydrophyllacea was analyzed in this paper, which is the first for the genus within the family Rubiaceae. The mitogenome sequence is 354,155 bp in length containing 3 ribosomal RNA genes, 16 transfer RNA genes, and 37 protein-coding genes. Gene ccmFc, ccmFn, rps3, rps13, rps10, rpl12, nad3 and cox1 contain one intron, gene cox2 and atp9 contain three introns and gene nad1, nad4 and nad7 contain four introns. Furthermore, Gene nad2 and nad5 have five introns. Gene nad1, nad2, nad5, nad7and Cox2 are trans-splicing genes. Phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method positioned S. hydrophyllacea closely with Asclepias syriaca in Gentianales.

Early-responsive molecular signatures associated with halophytic adaptation in Sesuvium portulacastrum (L.)

Project description:Sesuvium portulacastrum (L.) is a halophyte, adapted to grow naturally under high-saline environments. Under control conditions, an inverse correlation was seen between Na and K accumulation, suggesting its facultative nature and ability to use Na-K interchangeably. No significant growth reduction was seen in seedlings upto 250 mM NaCl, except for youngest leaf-curling. Significantly higher accumulation of proline (4.3/1.8-folds), glycine betaine (1.4/1.4-folds) and selected amino-acids (1.4-4.2/1.4-2.3-folds) were seen in root/shoot of seedlings within 8 h stress duration. Inspite of having higher Na-accumulation, significantly lower number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified at 24 h than 8 h stress duration, indicating transcriptional restoration. As initial hours after NaCl stress are dominated by osmotic-component, 8h-specific DEGs, which are mainly transporters and transcription factors, reflect plant’s response towards NaCl-induced osmotic challenge. Most of the growth-related pathways including photosynthesis and ribosome-associated biogenesis gets suppressed, to support the activation of stress defence. Overexpression of SpRAB18 (an ABA-responsive dehydrin), one of the top-ranked DEGs, was found to impart salt-tolerance in soybean, indicating gene-function level conservation between halophyte and glycophyte. An open-access transcriptome database “SesuviumKB” (https:/ /cb.imsc.res.in/sesuviumkb) was developed to enable wide-scale gene function studies in S. portulacastrum, that could pave the way to engineer salt-tolerance in crops.
