Project description:Pterocarya stenoptera, also called Chinese wingnut in China, is a tall deciduous tree of the walnut family (Juglandaceae). P. stenoptera is one of the most popular shade trees owing to its tall and graceful form and rapid growth rate. In the present study, the chloroplast genome of P. stenoptera was assembled and analyzed phylogenetically. The chloroplast genome of P. stenoptera is 160,212 bp in length, with a large single-copy region (LSC) of 88,724 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 18,396 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 26,046 bp, forming a typical quadripartite structure. A total of 130 genes are annotated from the chloroplast genome of P. stenoptera, including 82 protein-coding genes, 40 transfer RNA (tRNAs) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNAs) genes. The GC content of the chloroplast genome is 36.2%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the common proteins from P. stenoptera and 14 related species confirmed the close relationship between Pterocarya and Juglans.

Project description:Engelhardia roxburghiana is a traditional Chinese medicine in the Juglandaceae family. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of E. roxburghiana was reported and characterized. The cp genome is 161,550 bp in length and contains a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 25,862 bp) separated by a large (90,937 bp) and small (18,889 bp) single-copy regions. A total of 113 unique genes were predicted, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that E. roxburghiana is resolved as a sister group to the clade of subfam. Juglandoideae.

Project description:In this study, we successfully assembled and analyzed the chloroplast genome of Engelhardtia fenzlii. The chloroplast genome of E. fenzlii was very similar to those of other Juglandaceae species. The E. fenzlii chloroplast genome is 161,713 bp in length and displays the typical quadripartite structure, which consists of a pair of IR regions (26,016 bp) separated by an LSC region (90,478 bp) and an SSC region (19,203 bp). The chloroplast genome of E. fenzlii contained a total of 112 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs, and 4 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis based on the complete chloroplast genomes showed that Engelhardtia formed a monophyletic clade and E. fenzlii was sister to E. roxburghiana.

Project description:Rhododendron delavayi, as a member of Ericaceae family, has been widely used as an important garden flower. The cp genome of R. delavayi exhibited a typical quadripartite cycle with 193,798 bp, comprising of a pair of inverted repeats (IRa and IRb) of 15,494 bp intersected by a large single copy (LSC) region of 160,234 bp and a quite small single copy region of 2576 bp. Totally, 123 unique genes were assembled in this cp genome, including 80 protein genes, 35 tRNAs and 8 rRNAs. Out of these assembled genes, 88 genes (71.54%) were single copy. Phylogenetic analysis based on 14 cp genome of related species showed that the R. delavayi was closely related to Vaccinium oldhamii. This study provides important information for future evolution, genetic and molecular biology studies of Rhododendron.

Project description:Rhododendron delavayi Franch. is globally famous as an ornamental plant. Its distribution in southwest China covers several different habitats and environments. However, not much research had been conducted on Rhododendron spp. at the molecular level, which hinders understanding of its evolution, speciation, and synthesis of secondary metabolites, as well as its wide adaptability to different environments. Here, we report the genome assembly and gene annotation of R. delavayi var. delavayi (the second genome sequenced in the Ericaceae), which will facilitate the study of the family. The genome assembly will have further applications in genome-assisted cultivar breeding. The final size of the assembled R. delavayi var. delavayi genome (695.09 Mb) was close to the 697.94 Mb, estimated by k-mer analysis. A total of 336.83 gigabases (Gb) of raw Illumina HiSeq 2000 reads were generated from 9 libraries (with insert sizes ranging from 170 bp to 40 kb), achieving a raw sequencing depth of ×482.6. After quality filtering, 246.06 Gb of clean reads were obtained, giving ×352.55 coverage depth. Assembly using Platanus gave a total scaffold length of 695.09 Mb, with a contig N50 of 61.8 kb and a scaffold N50 of 637.83 kb. Gene prediction resulted in the annotation of 32 938 protein-coding genes. The genome completeness was evaluated by CEGMA and BUSCO and reached 95.97% and 92.8%, respectively. The gene annotation completeness was also evaluated by CEGMA and BUSCO and reached 97.01% and 87.4%, respectively. Genome annotation revealed that 51.77% of the R. delavayi genome is composed of transposable elements, and 37.48% of long terminal repeat elements (LTRs). The de novo assembled genome of R. delavayi var. delavayi (hereinafter referred to as R. delavayi) is the second genomic resource of the family Ericaceae and will provide a valuable resource for research on future comparative genomic studies in Rhododendron species. The availability of the R. delavayi genome sequence will hopefully provide a tool for scientists to tackle open questions regarding molecular mechanisms underlying environmental interactions in the genus Rhododendron, more accurately understand the evolutionary processes and systematics of the genus, facilitate the identification of genes encoding pharmaceutically important compounds, and accelerate molecular breeding to release elite varieties.

Project description:Premise of the studyMicrosatellite markers of Pterocarya stenoptera (Juglandaceae) were developed for future studies on the population genetic diversity and spatial genetic structure of the species.Methods and resultsBased on Illumina sequencing of the transcriptome of P. stenoptera, a total of 2452 microsatellites were identified from 83,674 assembled unigenes. One hundred microsatellites were randomly selected to design amplification primer pairs. Of these, 15 were successfully amplified and displayed polymorphism. For these markers, the number of alleles per locus and population ranged from one to six. The levels of observed and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.000 to 1.000 and 0.000 to 0.718, respectively. Furthermore, all of the 15 loci were successfully cross-amplified in another congeneric species (P. hupehensis) and were demonstrated to be polymorphic.ConclusionsThe microsatellite loci described here can be used for future population genetic and landscape genetic studies on P. stenoptera.

Project description:Relict species play an important role in understanding the biogeography of intercontinental disjunctions. Pterocarya (a relict genus) is the valuable model taxon for studying the biogeography of East Asian versus southern European/West Asian disjunct patterns. This disjunction has not been as well studied as others (e.g., between Eastern Asia and North America). Several phylogenetic studies on Pterocarya have been conducted, but none have provided a satisfactory phylogenetic resolution. Here, we report the first well-resolved phylogeny of Pterocarya using restriction site-associated DNA sequencing data based on the sampling of all taxa across the entire distribution area of the genus. Taxonomic treatments were also clarified by combining morphological traits. Furthermore, fossil-calibrated phylogeny was used to explore the biogeography of Pterocarya. Our results support the existence of two sections in Pterocarya, which is in accordance with morphological taxonomy. Section Platyptera comprises three species: P. rhoifolia, P. macroptera, and P. delavayi. Section Pterocarya also comprises three species: P. fraxinifolia, P. hupehensis, and P. stenoptera. The divergence between the two sections took place during the early Miocene (20.5 Ma). The formation of the Gobi Desert and climate cooling of northern Siberia in the Middle Miocene (15.7 Ma) might have caused the split of the continuous distribution of this genus and the formation of the East Asian versus southern European/West Asian disjunct pattern. Lastly, the divergence between P. hupehensis and P. stenoptera as well as between P. rhoifolia and P. macroptera/P. delavayi (10.0 Ma) supports the late Miocene diversification hypothesis in East Asia.
