Complete chloroplast genome sequence of ‘Field Muskmelon,’ an invasive weed to China

ABSTRACT: Abstract Cucumis melo L. var. agrestis Naud., commonly known as ‘Field Muskmelon,’ is an annual invasive weed in many parts of China. However, there is very little available information about the chloroplast genome of this species. Here, we first report and characterize its complete chloroplast genome sequence based on Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The complete plastid genome was 155,402 bp, which contained inverted repeats (IR) of 25,514 bp separated by a large single-copy (LSC) and a small single copy (SSC) of 86,287 bp and 18,087 bp, respectively. The complete chloroplast genome contains 133 genes, comprising 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes and 1 pseudogene. The overall GC content of the plastome is 36.9%. The phylogenetic analysis of 16 selected chloroplast genomes demonstrated that C. melo var. agrestis Naud was close to congeneric species C. xhytivus.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of a major invasive species, crofton weed (Ageratina adenophora).

Project description:BACKGROUND:Crofton weed (Ageratina adenophora) is one of the most hazardous invasive plant species, which causes serious economic losses and environmental damages worldwide. However, the sequence resource and genome information of A. adenophora are rather limited, making phylogenetic identification and evolutionary studies very difficult. Here, we report the complete sequence of the A. adenophora chloroplast (cp) genome based on Illumina sequencing. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:The A. adenophora cp genome is 150, 689 bp in length including a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18, 358 bp and a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84, 815 bp separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 23, 755 bp. The genome contains 130 unique genes and 18 duplicated in the IR regions, with the gene content and organization similar to other Asteraceae cp genomes. Comparative analysis identified five DNA regions (ndhD-ccsA, psbI-trnS, ndhF-ycf1, ndhI-ndhG and atpA-trnR) containing parsimony-informative characters higher than 2%, which may be potential informative markers for barcoding and phylogenetic analysis. Repeat structure, codon usage and contraction of the IR were also investigated to reveal the pattern of evolution. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated a sister relationship between A. adenophora and Guizotia abyssinica and supported a monophyly of the Asterales. CONCLUSION:We have assembled and analyzed the chloroplast genome of A. adenophora in this study, which was the first sequenced plastome in the Eupatorieae tribe. The complete chloroplast genome information is useful for plant phylogenetic and evolutionary studies within this invasive species and also within the Asteraceae family.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Sloanea leptocarpa (Elaeocarpaceae) from China.

Project description:Sloanea leptocarpa Diels, 1931 of the Elaeocarpaceae is an endemic plant from China distributed in subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests and an excellent ornamental tree. The only available chloroplast genomic resource of the genus at present is that of S. sinensis (Hance) Hemsl., 1900 from eastern China. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequence of S. leptocarpa which is less common than S. sinensis. The complete chloroplast genome of S. leptocarpa is 158,077 bp in length, and shows quadripartite organization including a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) (24,963 bp) that is divided by a large single-copy (LSC) region (88,519 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (19,632 bp). The circular chloroplast genome of S. leptocarpa contains 119 unique genes, composed of 74 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis involving 52 species with complete chloroplast genomes supported that S. leptocarpa is closely related to S. sinensis. This finding is in agreement with previous studies in which Elaeocarpaceae belongs to Oxalidales instead of Malvales and provides additional evidence for the monophyly of the Sloanea, a sister clade of the Elaeocarpus.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Artocarpus gomezianus (Moraceae) from Xishuangbanna, China.

Project description:Artocarpus gomezianus is a medicinal species native to Asia. To infer its phylogenetic relationship to the other Moraceae, the complete chloroplast genome of A. gomezianus was sequenced. The whole chloroplast genome is 160,743 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,691 bp, one large single-copy (LSC) region of 89,241 bp, and one small singlecopy (SSC) region of 20,120 bp. The overall GC content of the complete chloroplast genome is 35.81%. Maximum likelihood analysis using 11 complete plastomes of the Moraceae and Cannabis sativa (Cannabaceae) designated as the outgroup, resolved A. gomezianus in a clade with A. petelotii and A. hypargyreus. These phylogenetic results are not consistent with previous findings based on nuclear loci in which A. gomezianus was grouped as a sister to a clade containing A. petelotii and A. hypargyreus. The complete chloroplast genome of A. gomezianus will provide a powerful tool to accelerate pharmacological development, systematics, and future phylogenetic studies in the Moraceae.

The complete chloroplast genome of Striga asiatica (L.) Kuntze 1891 (Orobanchaceae), a hemiparasitic weed from Guangxi China.

Project description:Striga asiatica (L.) Kuntze 1891 is a hemiparasitic plant native to Asia and Africa. It is invasive and causes yield losses in crops such as corn, rice and sorghum. Lack of chloroplast genomic data has limited research into its obligate parasitic lifestyle. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of Striga asiatica was sequenced and characterized. It is a quadripartite structure with a total length of 191,085 bp and a GC content of 37.86%. It has a large single copy region (LSC) of 51,406 bp, a small single copy region (SSC) of 273 bp, and two copies of the reverse repeat sequence (IRA and IRB) of 69,703 bp. A total of 122 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 44 tRNA genes were annotated in the chloroplast genome. There were a lot of ndh gene deletions and pseudogenizations in this chloroplast genome. For example, ndhA, D, E, H, I, and K were all pseudogenes because they were missing the 5' end start codon. ndhB, C, and J had shorter gene lengths than their homologs, and ndhF and ndhG were missing genes. The phylogenetic tree reveals that all Striga species form a clade, and a bootstrap value of 100 indicates that S. asiatica is closely related to Striga hermonthica and Striga sepera. The comprehensive chloroplast genomic resource of S. asiatica would assist researchers in comprehending hemiparasitic mechanisms, molecular markers, and evolutionary patterns of the genus Striga.
