The complete mitogenome of Chrysopogon zizanioides (L.) Roberty (Poaceae), with its phylogenetic analysis.

ABSTRACT: Vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides), is a perennial and tussock C4 grass from the genus Chrysopogon of Poaceae, which has been widely used as a natural and inexpensive resource for multifarious environmental applications. The complete mitogenome of C. zizanioides was 551,622 bp in length, containing 40 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 19 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and six ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs). All PCGs started with ATG and stopped with TNN (TAA, TAG, and TGA). The overall nucleotide composition is: 28.2% A, 28.2% T, 21.7% G, and 21.9% C, with a biased A + T content of 56.4%. Phylogenetic analysis using 14 PCGs of 22 species showed that C. zizanioides display a close relationship with Saccharum officinarum (LC107874) and Sorghum bicolor (DQ984518) in Poaceae.

Project description:Restoration of salt-affected soil through cultivation Chrysopogon zizanioides is a promising approach. The two way benefit of such an approach is that reclamation of salt-affected soil concomitant to improve plant growth and increased yield of essential oil produced in the plants roots. Earlier studies showed physiological changes and reduced growth of C. zizanioides under salinity. In the present study, plant growth promoting microorganisms viz. Pseudomonas monteilii, Bacillus megaterium, Azotobacter chroococcum and Rhizophagus intraradices were used as bio-inoculants for cultivation of C. zizanioides under salt-affected soil. Bio-inoculants in combination with vermicompost significantly increased the growth and productivity of C. zizanioides under salt-affected soil, and simultaneously improved soil health. When compared to control, the soil physico-chemical and biological properties of bio-inoculants treated plants was significantly improved. The reclamation of salt-affected soil was evident by the significant decrease in the level of soil pH (11.0%), electrical conductivity (23.5%), sodium adsorption ratio (15.3%), and exchangeable sodium percent (12.4%) of bio-inoculants treated plants. The improvement of soil cation exchange capacity indicated the decrease in soil salinity. Whereas increase in the microbial count (four-fold), AMF spores (447 spores), dehydrogenase (six-fold), acid (two-fold) and alkaline phosphatase (five-fold) activities in rhizosphere soil of bio-inoculant treated plants indicated the improved biological properties. A positive correlation of plant biomass production to soil organic carbon, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, available phosphorus and cation exchange capacity depicted improved nutrients content in rhizosphere soil of bio-inoculant treated plants. The findings of this study suggest that P. monteilii and R. intraradices with vermicompost can be effectively used as bio-inoculants for encouragement of phytoremediation in salt-affected soil.
