Characterization of the complete plastid genome of Lysimachia christinae Hance (Primulaceae).

ABSTRACT: Lysimachia christinae Hance is widely distributed in subtropical China at the elevational range from 500-2300 m. The species is an important medicinal herb for treating jaundice, urinary disorders, and the liver. Here, we sequenced and characterized the whole plastid genome of L. christinae. It is 154,810 bp in length, containing two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,034 bp, each), a large single-copy (LSC) region (84,809 bp), and a small single-copy (SSC) region (17,933 bp). It has 114 genes, of which 80 are protein-coding, 30 are tRNA, and 4 are rRNA genes. The ML tree indicates L. christinae is closely related to Lysimachia congestiflora Hemsl. This genome information can help us better construct a backbone phylogeny of Lysimachia in the future.

Complete plastid genome sequence of Primula sinensis (Primulaceae): structure comparison, sequence variation and evidence for accD transfer to nucleus.

Project description:Species-rich genus Primula L. is a typical plant group with which to understand genetic variance between species in different levels of relationships. Chloroplast genome sequences are used to be the information resource for quantifying this difference and reconstructing evolutionary history. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Primula sinensis and compared it with other related species. This genome of chloroplast showed a typical circular quadripartite structure with 150,859 bp in sequence length consisting of 37.2% GC base. Two inverted repeated regions (25,535 bp) were separated by a large single-copy region (82,064 bp) and a small single-copy region (17,725 bp). The genome consists of 112 genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and four rRNA genes. Among them, seven coding genes, seven tRNA genes and four rRNA genes have two copies due to their locations in the IR regions. The accD and infA genes lacking intact open reading frames (ORF) were identified as pseudogenes. SSR and sequence variation analyses were also performed on the plastome of Primula sinensis, comparing with another available plastome of P. poissonii. The four most variable regions, rpl36-rps8, rps16-trnQ, trnH-psbA and ndhC-trnV, were identified. Phylogenetic relationship estimates using three sub-datasets extracted from a matrix of 57 protein-coding gene sequences showed the identical result that was consistent with previous studies. A transcript found from P. sinensis transcriptome showed a high similarity to plastid accD functional region and was identified as a putative plastid transit peptide at the N-terminal region. The result strongly suggested that plastid accD has been functionally transferred to the nucleus in P. sinensis.

Complete plastid genome of Primula calliantha Franch. (Primulaceae): an alpine ornamental plant endemic to Hengduan Mountain, China.

Project description:Primula calliantha Franch. is an alpine species with an ornamental value that is endemic to the Hengduan Mountains of southwest China. Here, we sequenced and assembled its plastid complete genome, which is a circular molecule of 151,954 bp and contains a large single-copy (83,820 bp) and a small single-copy (17,814 bp) region, separated by a pair of inverted repeats (25,160 bp). There are 131 genes, 86 protein-coding, 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs in the plastome, of which 114 genes, 80 CDSs, 30 tRNAs, and 4 rRNAs are unique, respectively. The P. calliantha plastid genome shows a high level of synteny with its close relatives, P. chionantha, P. purdomii, and P. woodwardii. Phylogenetic analysis based on 60 complete chloroplast genomes of Primulaceae confirmed its delimitation in Primula.

Characterization of the complete plastid genome of Butia eriospatha (Arecaceae).

Project description:Butia eriospatha is an endemic palm species from the Atlantic Rainforest in Brazil, a biodiversity hotspot. This species is currently listed in the IUCN red list as vulnerable and lacks specific plastid markers for population genetics studies. In addition, the evolutionary relationship within the genus Butia is not yet well resolved. Here, we sequenced and characterized the complete plastid genome (plastome) sequence of B. eriospatha. The complete plastome sequence is 154,048 bp in length, with the typical quadripartite structure. This plastome length and genes content is consistent with other six species from tribe Cocoseae. However, the Inverted Repeat (IR) borders show some variation among the analyzed species from this tribe. Species from the Bactridinae (Astrocaryum and Acrocomia) and Elaeidinae (Elaeis) subtribes present the rps19 gene completely duplicated in the IR region. In contrast, all plastomes sequenced from the subtribe Attaleinae (Butia, Cocos, Syagrus) present one complete CDS of rps19 and one partial copy of rps19. The difference in the IR/LSC junctions between Attaleinae and the sister clades Bactridinae + Elaeidinae might be considered an evolutionary signal and the plastome sequence of B. eriopatha may be used in future studies of population genetics and phylogeny.

Seed germination and reproductive features of Lysimachia minoricensis (Primulaceae), a wild-extinct plant.

Project description:Lysimachia minoricensis is one of the few Mediterranean endemic plants (Minorca, Balearic islands) that has gone extinct in the wild but which persists as extant germplasm or cultivated plants in several botanical gardens. Reproductive features (seed set, number of seeds per capsule, seed weight) and germination responses to constant temperatures, sea water and dry-heat pre-treatments were investigated to determine the extent to which they may have influenced the extinction of the species. Seed set in Lysimachia is not dependent on pollinators, suggesting a functional selfer breeding system. Most plants produced a large mean number of fruits (23.2) and seeds (466), and the mean production of seeds per individual was estimated to be almost 1,100. Overall, no highly specific requirements were observed for seed germination. Seed germination was not inhibited in the dark, and a high germinability (over 87% in all cases) was recorded in most experiments, with the exception of those performed at low temperatures (5 and 10 degrees C). These data suggest that fertility and seed viability were not the major causes of extinction. The high reproductive performance of L. minoricensis is in striking contrast to its status as a wild-extinct plant, suggesting that extrinsic factors were responsible for its extinction.

Lysimachia xiangxiensis (Primulaceae), a new species from limestone area in Hunan Province, central China.

Project description:A new species of Lysimachia, L. xiangxiensis (Primulaceae), is described and illustrated from western Hunan, central China. The species is similar to L. melampyroides in plant densely strigillose, leaves subglabrous adaxially, and flowers usually solitary in axils of upper leaves, but differs by the succulent leaves, the creeping or ascending stems 15-25 cm long, and the suborbicular to broadly elliptic corolla lobes. This new species is also supported by a molecular phylogenetic analysis of some Lysimachia species based on ITS sequence data.

The complete chloroplast genome of Primula obconica (Primulaceae).

Project description:We report the complete chloroplast genome of Primula obconica, a popular house-plant all over the world. The complete chloroplast genome of P. obconica was sequenced using an Illumina Miseq platform. The circular genome is 153,694 bp in length and comprises a large single copy (LSC, 84,485 bp) region and a small single copy (SSC, 17,689 bp) region, which are separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRa and IRb, 25,760 bp each). The overall GC content is 37.2%. The P. obconica chloroplast genome encodes 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and four ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on 18 chloroplast genomes indicates that P. obconica is closely related to the clade of Primula sect. Carolinella, sect. Corusoides and sect. Monocarpicae.
