Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of mangrove Rhizophora apiculata Blume (Rhizophoraceae).

ABSTRACT: The chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Rhizophora apiculata was characterized. The cp genome length was 164,343 bp in length, containing a typical structure of a large single copy (LSC) of 93,155 bp, a small single copy (SSC) of 19,376 bp, and two inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,906 bp, with a GC content of 34.9%. There were 131 genes were annotated in the cp genome, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. A phylogenetic analysis using cp genomes of mangroves and ecologically associated species resolved R. apiculata in Rhizophora with R. stylosa and R. x lamarckii. This complete chloroplast sequence offers a promising tool for further species identification and evolutionary studies of Rhizophora, as well as for mangroves.

Pharmacological Properties, Volatile Organic Compounds, and Genome Sequences of Bacterial Endophytes from the Mangrove Plant Rhizophora apiculata Blume.

Project description:Mangrove plant endophytic bacteria are prolific sources of bioactive secondary metabolites. In the present study, twenty-three endophytic bacteria were isolated from the fresh roots of the mangrove plant Rhizophora apiculata. The identification of isolates by 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolated endophytic bacteria belonged to nine genera, including Streptomyces, Bacillus, Pseudovibrio, Microbacterium, Brevibacterium, Microbulbifer, Micrococcus, Rossellomorea, and Paracoccus. The ethyl acetate extracts of the endophytic bacteria's pharmacological properties were evaluated in vitro, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory, xanthine oxidase inhibitory, and cytotoxic activities. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses of three high bioactive strains Bacillus sp. RAR_GA_16, Rossellomorea vietnamensis RAR_WA_32, and Bacillus sp. RAR_M1_44 identified major volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in their ethyl acetate extracts. Genome analyses identified biosynthesis gene clusters (BGCs) of secondary metabolites of the bacterial endophytes. The obtained results reveal that the endophytic bacteria from R. apiculata may be a potential source of pharmacological secondary metabolites, and further investigations of the high bioactive strains-such as fermentation and isolation of pure bioactive compounds, and heterologous expression of novel BGCs in appropriate expression hosts-may allow exploring and exploiting the promising bioactive compounds for future drug development.

Isolation of microsatellite markers for the red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle (Rhizophoraceae).

Project description:UNLABELLED: PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Three species of the mangrove tree genus Rhizophora are found in the New World and along the west coast of Africa. Of these, R. mangle is the most abundant and has a complex interbreeding relationship with the sympatric R. racemosa and R. harrisonii. The development of additional microsatellite markers would permit paternity analyses and investigation of the hybrid origin of these species. • METHODS AND RESULTS:Using an enriched library method, via hybridization with biotinylated oligonucleotides complementary to repetitive poly AG/TC, primers for 11 microsatellite markers of R. mangle were developed and characterized in populations in Pará and São Paulo (Brazil) and Florida (USA). Ten of these markers were transferable to R. racemosa and R. harrisonii. • CONCLUSIONS:The microsatellite markers presented here will be useful in studies of contemporary and historical gene flow between American and West African Rhizophora species.

Low genetic diversity indicating the threatened status of Rhizophora apiculata (Rhizophoraceae) in Malaysia: declined evolution meets habitat destruction.

Project description:Worldwide, many mangrove species are experiencing significant population declines, including Rhizophora apiculata, which is one of the most widespread and economically important species in tropical Asia. In Malaysia, there has been an alarming decline in R. apiculata populations driven primarily by anthropogenic activities. However, the lack of genetic and demographic information on this species has hampered local efforts to conserve it. To address these gaps, we generated novel genetic information for R. apiculata, based on 1,120 samples collected from 39 natural populations in Peninsular Malaysia. We investigated its genetic diversity and genetic structure with 19 transcriptome and three nuclear microsatellite markers. Our analyses revealed a low genetic diversity (mean He: 0.352) with significant genetic differentiation (FST: 0.315) among populations of R. apiculata. Approximately two-third of the populations showed significant excess of homozygotes, indicating persistent inbreeding which might be due to the decrease in population size or fragmentation. From the cluster analyses, the populations investigated were divided into two distinct clusters, comprising the west and east coasts of Peninsular Malaysia. The western cluster was further divided into two sub-clusters with one of the sub-clusters showing strong admixture pattern that harbours high levels of genetic diversity, thus deserving high priority for conservation.

The First De Novo Transcriptome Assembly and Transcriptomic Dynamics of the Mangrove Tree Rhizophora stylosa Griff. (Rhizophoraceae).

Project description:Mangroves are salt-tolerant plant species that grow in coastal saline water and are adapted to harsh environmental conditions. In this study, we de novo assembled and functionally annotated the transcriptome of Rhizophora stylosa, the widely distributed mangrove from the largest mangrove family (Rhizophoraceae). The final transcriptome consists of 200,491 unigenes with an average length, and N50 of 912.7 and 1334 base pair, respectively. We then compared the genome-wide expression profiles between the two morphologically distinct natural populations of this species growing under different levels of salinity depending on their distance from the ocean. Among the 200,491 unigenes, 40,253 were identified as differentially expressed between the two populations, while 15,741 and 24,512 were up- and down-regulated, respectively. Functional annotation assigned thousands of upregulated genes in saline environment to the categories related to abiotic stresses such as response to salt-, osmotic-, and oxidative-stress. Validation of those genes may contribute to a better understanding of adaptation in mangroves species. This study reported, for the first time, the transcriptome of R. stylosa, and the dynamic of it in response to salt stress and provided a valuable resource for elucidation of the molecular mechanism underlying the salt stress response in mangroves and other plants that live under stress.

Isolation and expression analysis of novel silicon absorption gene from roots of mangrove (Rhizophora apiculata) via suppression subtractive hybridization.

Project description:Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in soil after oxygen. It is not an essential element for plant growth and formation but plays an important role in increasing plant tolerance towards different kinds of abiotic and biotic stresses. The molecular mechanism of Si absorption and accumulation may differ between plants, such as monocotyledons and dicotyledons. Silicon absorption and accumulation in mangrove plants are affected indirectly by some proteins rich in serine and proline amino acids. The expression level of the genes responsible for Si absorption varies in different parts of plants. In this study, Si is mainly observed in the epidermal roots' cell walls of mangrove plants compared to other parts. The present work was carried out to discover further information on Si stress responsive genes in Rhizophora apiculata, using the suppression subtractive hybridization technique. To construct the cDNA library, two-month-old seedlings were exposed to 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mM SiO2 for 15 hrs and for 1 to 6 days resulting in a total of 360 high quality ESTs gained. Further examination by RT-PCR and real-time qRT-PCR showed the expression of a candidate gene of serine-rich protein.
