The plastome sequence of Ulleung Rowan, Sorbus ulleungensis (Rosaceae), a new endemic species on Ulleung Island, Korea.

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Sorbus ulleungensis, a recently described endemic species to Ulleung Island of Korea, was determined. The genome size was 159,632?bp in length with 36.5% GC content. It included a pair of inverted repeats (IRa and IRb) of 26,402?bp, which were separated by small single copy (SSC: 18,824?bp) and large single copy (LSC: 88,003?bp) regions. The cp genome contained 111 genes, including 78 protein coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of the combined 78 protein coding genes and four rRNA genes showed that S. ulleungensis was most closely related to Pyrus pyrifolia.

Three New Recorded Species of the Physalacriaceae on Ulleung Island, Korea.

Project description:Most known species in the Physalacriaceae are saprotrophs that grow on decaying leaves and wood, and approximately 21 genera in the Physalacriaceae have been reported worldwide. During an ongoing survey of indigenous fungi in Korea, four specimens belonging to the Physalacriaceae were collected on Ulleung Island. These specimens were identified as three species based on morphological characteristics and molecular analysis of rDNA-internal transcribed spacer sequences. Three species in three genera were shown to be new records in Korea: Hymenopellis orientalis, Paraxerula hongoi, and Ponticulomyces orientalis. The latter two are the first records of these genera in Korea. In this study, we provide detailed morphological descriptions of these species and describe their phylogenetic position within the Physalacriaceae.

The complete plastome sequence of Pentactina rupicola Nakai (Rosaceae), a genus endemic to Korea.

Project description:The complete plastid genome (plastome) of Pentactina rupicola Nakai, the sole member of genus Pentactina, endemic to Korea, was determined in this study. The plastome of P. rupicola is 156,612?bp in length and is composed of a pair of 26,351?bp inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb) separating large (LSC) and small (SSC) single-copy regions of 84,970 and 18,940?bp, respectively (NCBI acc. no. NC 016921). The plastome encodes 129 genes, of which 112 are unique, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Seventeen genes contain one intron and the ycf3 gene has two introns. The second intron of clpP is absent in the P. rupicola plastome. The AT content of P. rupicola is 63% overall, and in the LSC, SSC, and IR regions is 65%, 69%, and 58%, respectively. A total of 63 simple sequence repeats (SSR) are distributed among the noncoding regions of the genome. Phylogenetic analysis of the combined 82-gene data set for 35 plastomes suggests that P. rupicola is sister to the Pyrusmalus clade.

Characterization and Comparison of Two Complete Plastomes of Rosaceae Species (Potentilla dickinsii var. glabrata and Spiraea insularis) Endemic to Ulleung Island, Korea.

Project description:Potentilla dickinsii var. glabrata and Spiraea insularis in the family Rosaceae are species endemic to Ulleung Island, Korea, the latter of which is listed as endangered. In this study, we characterized the complete plastomes of these two species and compared these with previously reported plastomes of other Ulleung Island endemic species of Rosaceae (Cotoneaster wilsonii, Prunus takesimensis, Rubus takesimensis, and Sorbus ulleungensis). The highly conserved complete plastomes of P. dickinsii var. glabrata and S. insularis are 158,637 and 155,524 base pairs with GC contents of 37% and 36.9%, respectively. Comparative phylogenomic analysis identified three highly variable intergenic regions (trnT-UGU/trnL-UAA, rpl32/trnL-UAG, and ndhF/rpl32) and one variable genic region (ycf1). Only 14 of the 75 protein-coding genes have been subject to strong purifying selection. Phylogenetic analysis of 23 representative plastomes within the Rosaceae supported the monophyly of Potentilla and the sister relationship between Potentilla and Fragaria and indicated that S. insularis is sister to a clade containing Cotoneaster, Malus, Pyrus, and Sorbus. The plastome resources generated in this study will contribute to elucidating the plastome evolution of insular endemic Rosaceae on Ulleung Island and also in assessing the genetic consequences of anagenetic speciation for various endemic lineages on the island.

Arthonia ulleungdoensis, a New Lichenized Fungus from Ulleung Island, South Korea.

Project description:Arthonia ulleungdoensis Lee & Hur is described as a new lichen species from South Korea. The new species is distinguishable from Arthonia ruana A. Massal. by its large, rounded and non-punctiform apothecia, taller apothecial section, asci with fewer spores, and larger and permanently colorless spores. Molecular analyses employing mitochondrial small subunit (mtSSU) and RNA polymerase subunit II (RPB2) sequences strongly support Arthonia ulleungdoensis as a distinct species in the genus Arthonia. Overall, 22 Arthonia species are currently recorded in South Korea. A surrogate key is provided to assist in the identification of all 10 taxa of Arthonia/Arthothelium with muriform spores in Northeast Asia.

Plastome Characterization and Phylogenomics of East Asian Beeches with a Special Emphasis on Fagus multinervis on Ulleung Island, Korea.

Project description:Beech trees of the genus Fagus (Fagaceae) are monoecious and distributed in the Northern Hemisphere. They represent an important component of mixed broad-leaved evergreen-deciduous forests and are an economically important source of timber. Despite their ecological and economical importance, however, little is known regarding the overall plastome evolution among Fagus species in East Asia. In particular, the taxonomic position and status of F. multinervis, a beech species endemic to Ulleung Island of Korea, remains unclear even today. Therefore, in this study, we characterized four newly completed plastomes of East Asian Fagus species (one accession each of F. crenata and F. multinervis and two accessions of F. japonica). Moreover, we performed phylogenomic analyses comparing these four plastomes with F. sylvatica (European beech) plastome. The four plastomes were highly conserved, and their size ranged from 158,163 to 158,348 base pair (bp). The overall GC content was 37.1%, and the sequence similarity ranged from 99.8% to 99.99%. Codon usage patterns were similar among species, and 7 of 77 common protein-coding genes were under positive selection. Furthermore, we identified five highly variable hotspot regions of the Fagus plastomes (ccsA/ndhD, ndhD/psaC, ndhF/rpl32, trnS-GCU/trnG-UCC, and ycf1). Phylogenetic analysis revealed the monophyly of Fagus as well as early divergence of the subgenus Fagus and monophyletic Engleriana. Finally, phylogenetic results supported the taxonomic distinction of F. multinervis from its close relatives F. engleriana and F. japonica. However, the sister species and geographic origin of F. multinervis on Ulleung Island could not be determined.
