Insights into molecular structure, genome evolution and phylogenetic implication through mitochondrial genome sequence of Gleditsia sinensis.

ABSTRACT: Gleditsia sinensis is an endemic species widely distributed in China with high economic and medicinal value. To explore the genomic evolution and phylogenetic relationships of G. sinensis, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of G. sinensis was sequenced and assembled, which was firstly reported in Gleditsia. The mt genome was circular and 594,121 bp in length, including 37 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 19 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and 3 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The overall base composition of the G. sinensis mt genome was 27.4% for A, 27.4% for T, 22.6% for G, 22.7% for C. The comparative analysis of PCGs in Fabaceae species showed that most of the ribosomal protein genes and succinate dehydrogenase genes were lost. In addition, we found that the rps4 gene was only lost in G. sinensis, whereas it was retained in other Fabaceae species. The phylogenetic analysis based on shared PCGs of 24 species (22 Fabaceae and 2 Solanaceae) showed that G. sinensis is evolutionarily closer to Senna species. In general, this research will provide valuable information for the evolution of G. sinensis and provide insight into the phylogenetic relationships within the family Fabaceae.

The complete chloroplast genome of Gleditsia sinensis and Gleditsia japonica: genome organization, comparative analysis, and development of taxon specific DNA mini-barcodes.

Project description:Chloroplast genomes have been widely considered an informative and valuable resource for molecular marker development and phylogenetic reconstruction in plant species. This study evaluated the complete chloroplast genomes of the traditional Chinese medicine Gleditsia sinensis and G. japonica, an adulterant of the former. The complete chloroplast genomes of G. sinensis and G. japonica were found to be of sizes 163,175 bp and 162,391 bp, respectively. A total of 111 genes were identified in each chloroplast genome, including 77 coding sequences, 30 tRNA, and 4 rRNA genes. Comparative analysis demonstrated that the chloroplast genomes of these two species were highly conserved in genome size, GC contents, and gene organization. Additionally, nucleotide diversity analysis of the two chloroplast genomes revealed that the two short regions of ycf1b were highly diverse, and could be treated as mini-barcode candidate regions. The mini-barcode of primers ZJ818F-1038R was proven to precisely discriminate between these two species and reflect their biomass ratio accurately. Overall, the findings of our study will shed light on the genetic evolution and guide species identification of G. sinensis and G. japonica.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Nibea diacanthus and its phylogenetic implication.

Project description:The blackspotted croaker (Nibea diacanthus) is an important food fish of Indo-West Pacific and China. To study the phylogenetic status, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of N. diacanthus. The mitogenome is 16,532 bp in length and composed of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, and a control region. The gene composition and the structural arrangement of N. diacanthus complete mtDNA were identical to most of other vertebrates. The phylogenetic analysis using the complete mitochondrial genome revealed that the N. diacanthus might be separated from Nibea genera of Argyrosominae, which was inconsistent with that based on morphology. The complete mitogenome data would be useful for the evolution and conservation genetic studies of Sciaenidae.

Draft genome sequence of Camellia sinensis var. sinensis provides insights into the evolution of the tea genome and tea quality.

Project description:Tea, one of the world's most important beverage crops, provides numerous secondary metabolites that account for its rich taste and health benefits. Here we present a high-quality sequence of the genome of tea, Camellia sinensis var. sinensis (CSS), using both Illumina and PacBio sequencing technologies. At least 64% of the 3.1-Gb genome assembly consists of repetitive sequences, and the rest yields 33,932 high-confidence predictions of encoded proteins. Divergence between two major lineages, CSS and Camellia sinensis var. assamica (CSA), is calculated to ∼0.38 to 1.54 million years ago (Mya). Analysis of genic collinearity reveals that the tea genome is the product of two rounds of whole-genome duplications (WGDs) that occurred ∼30 to 40 and ∼90 to 100 Mya. We provide evidence that these WGD events, and subsequent paralogous duplications, had major impacts on the copy numbers of secondary metabolite genes, particularly genes critical to producing three key quality compounds: catechins, theanine, and caffeine. Analyses of transcriptome and phytochemistry data show that amplification and transcriptional divergence of genes encoding a large acyltransferase family and leucoanthocyanidin reductases are associated with the characteristic young leaf accumulation of monomeric galloylated catechins in tea, while functional divergence of a single member of the glutamine synthetase gene family yielded theanine synthetase. This genome sequence will facilitate understanding of tea genome evolution and tea metabolite pathways, and will promote germplasm utilization for breeding improved tea varieties.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Aquilaria sinensis.

Project description:Aquilaria sinensis, endemic to China, is an economically important evergreen tree species and a source of agarwood. Due to the high market demand for agarwood, this species is heavily overexploited in the wild and is now listed as an endangered species. Although its nuclear and chloroplast genomes have been previously reported, little is known about its mitochondrial genome. Using the paired-end short reads generated by the Illumina sequencing platform, we assembled and herein report the mitochondrial genome of A. sinensis for future phylogenetic, evolutionary, and preservative studies. The length of the A. sinensis mitochondrial genome was found to be 341,829 bp and the GC content was 45.01%. A total of 32 protein-coding genes, 19 tRNA genes, and three rRNA genes were annotated. The phylogenetic tree indicated that A. sinensis is most closely genetically related to Vigna radiata.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Himalayan Griffon, Gyps himalayensis (Accipitriformes: Accipitridae): Sequence, structure, and phylogenetic analyses.

Project description:This is the first study to describe the mitochondrial genome of the Himalayan Griffon, Gyps himalayensis, which is an Old World vulture belonging to the family Accipitridae and occurring along the Himalayas and the adjoining Tibetan Plateau. Its mitogenome is a closed circular molecule 17,381 bp in size containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA coding genes, two rRNA-coding genes, a control region (CR), and an extra pseudo-control region (CCR) that are conserved in most Accipitridae mitogenomes. The overall base composition of the G. himalayensis mitogenome is 24.55% A, 29.49% T, 31.59% C, and 14.37% G, which is typical for bird mitochondrial genomes. The alignment of the Accipitridae species control regions showed high levels of genetic variation and abundant AT content. At the 5' end of the domain I region, a long continuous poly-C sequence was found. Two tandem repeats were found in the pseudo-control regions. Phylogenetic analysis with Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood based on 13 protein-coding genes indicated that the relationships at the family level were (Falconidae + (Cathartidae + (Sagittariidae + (Accipitridae + Pandionidae))). In the Accipitridae clade, G. himalayensis is more closely related to Aegypius monachus than to Spilornis cheela. The complete mitogenome of G. himalayensis provides a potentially useful resource for further exploration of the taxonomic status and phylogenetic history of Gyps species.

Mitochondrial genome sequence evolution in Chlamydomonas.

Project description:The mitochondrial genomes of the Chlorophyta exhibit significant diversity with respect to gene content and genome compactness; however, quantitative data on the rates of nucleotide substitution in mitochondrial DNA, which might help explain the origin of this diversity, are lacking. To gain insight into the evolutionary forces responsible for mitochondrial genome diversification, we sequenced to near completion the mitochondrial genome of the chlorophyte Chlamydomonas incerta, estimated the evolutionary divergence between Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and C. incerta mitochondrial protein-coding genes and rRNA-coding regions, and compared the relative evolutionary rates in mitochondrial and nuclear genes. Synonymous and nonsynonymous substitution rates do not differ significantly between the mitochondrial and nuclear protein-coding genes. The mitochondrial rRNA-coding regions, however, are evolving much faster than their nuclear counterparts, and this difference might be explained by relaxed functional constraints on the mitochondrial translational apparatus due to the small number of proteins synthesized in Chlamydomonas mitochondria. Substitution rates at synonymous sites in a nonstandard mitochondrial gene (rtl) and at intronic and synonymous sites in nuclear genes expressed at low levels suggest that the mutation rate is similar in these two genetic compartments. Potential evolutionary forces shaping mitochondrial genome evolution in Chlamydomonas are discussed.

Sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial genome for the East Asian common octopus, Octopus sinensis (Octopodidae: Octopoda).

Project description:The complete mitochondrial genome of the East Asian common octopus (Octopus sinensis) was determined and analyzed in this work. The circular mitogenome of O. sinensis is 15,737 bp in length with 21.53% GC content, which contains two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) and a non-coding region (D-loop). The analysis of the SNPs revealed 4 conservative SNPs for COI gene of O. sinensis compared with Octopus vulgaris. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that O. sinensis is closely related to O. vulgaris. This sequence data would play an important role in the investigation of phylogenetic relationship and taxonomy of the class Cephalopoda.

Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Fagus longipetiolata Seemen (Fagaceae): Genome Structure, Adaptive Evolution, and Phylogenetic Relationships.

Project description:Fagus longipetiolata Seemen is a deciduous tree of the Fagus genus in Fagaceae, which is endemic to China. In this study, we successfully sequenced the cp genome of F. longipetiolata, compared the cp genomes of the Fagus genus, and reconstructed the phylogeny of Fagaceae. The results showed that the cp genome of F. longipetiolata was 158,350 bp, including a pair of inverted repeat (IRA and IRB) regions with a length of 25,894 bp each, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,671 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,891 bp. The genome encoded 131 unique genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 37 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 8 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and 5 pseudogenes. In addition, 33 codons and 258 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were identified. The cp genomes of Fagus were relatively conserved, especially the IR regions, which showed the best conservation, and no inversions or rearrangements were found. The five regions with the largest variations were the rps12, rpl32, ccsA, trnW-CCA, and rps3 genes, which spread over in LSC and SSC. The comparison of gene selection pressure indicated that purifying selection was the main selective pattern maintaining important biological functions in Fagus cp genomes. However, the ndhD, rpoA, and ndhF genes of F. longipetiolata were affected by positive selection. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that F. longipetiolata and F. engleriana formed a close relationship, which partially overlapped in their distribution in China. Our analysis of the cp genome of F. longipetiolata would provide important genetic information for further research into the classification, phylogeny and evolution of Fagus.
