Complete chloroplast genome of the rare medicinal vegetable Allium hookeri.

ABSTRACT: Allium hookeri is a rare medicinal plant with unique flavor. In this study, the first complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. hookeri was sequenced and assembled based on the next generation sequencing. The cp genome is 153,592 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,609 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,487 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,748 bp each. The genome encodes 131 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 39 tRNA genes, and six rRNA genes. The GC content of whole genome is 36.99%. The phylogenetic analysis based on 24 complete cp sequences revealed that A. hookeri was at the base of the phylogenetic tree, indicating an older species in the Allium genus.

First complete chloroplast genome of the rare medicinal plant Schnabelia tetrodonta.

Project description:Schnabelia tetrodonta is a medicinal plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. However, the molecular biology data of the species was too scarce to bioprospect the medicinal species. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome (cp) of S. tetrodonta was sequenced and assembled based on the next generation sequencing. The cp genome is 157,004 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,605 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 36,899 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 18,250 bp each. The genome encodes 134 genes, including 90 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The GC content of whole genome is 37.80%. The phylogenetic analysis based on 20 complete cp sequences (19 genome sequences from the Teucrioideae of Lamiaceae and an outgroup of Ipomoea purpurea) revealed that S. tetrodonta was closely related to S. oligophylla.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of the rare medicinal plant: Mandragora caulescens (Solanaceae).

Project description:In this study, we assembled high-quality chloroplast genomes of Mandragora caulescens through a reference-guided approach using high-throughput Illumina sequencing reads. The resulting chloroplast genome assembly displayed a typical quadripartite structural organization, comprising a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,233 bp, two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,685 bp each, and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,207 bp. The chloroplast genome harbored 141 complete genes, and its overall GC content was 38.0%. In maximum-likelihood (ML) and Bayesian inference (BI) trees, the 19 Solanaceae species formed a monophyletic group, dividing into two main clades. M. caulescens and Nicandra physalodes formed a monophyletic group, suggesting a close relationship between the two species. The M. caulescens cp genome presented in this study lays a good foundation for further genetic and genomic studies of the Solanaceae.

The complete chloroplast genome of Allium wallichii Kunth (Amaryllidaceae).

Project description:Allium wallichii Kunth is a herb species with potentially extensive applications because of its edible, ornamental, and pharmaceutical values. The structural characteristics and phylogenetic relationships of its chloroplast genome were determined here for the first time. The complete cp genome was found to be 152,496 bp long, with a GC content of 37.04%. It consists of four distinct regions: a large single copy (LSC) region of 82,510 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,460 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,263 bp each. The genome encodes 129 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and six rRNA genes. Our phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. wallichii was closely related to Allium wallichii var. platyphyllum, which are included in the section Bromatorrhiza, subgenus Amerallium Traub of the genus Allium. Our report provides valuable information on the genetic diversity of Allium species.

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Allium prattii.

Project description:The genus Allium is one of the world's largest monocot genera. However, few reports on the complete chloroplast genome of Allium plants are reported. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of Allium prattii. The genome sequence was 154,482 bp in length, including a large single copy region (LSC) of 83,392 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 18,064 bp, which were separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,513 bp. The complete chloroplast genome contains 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis with several reported chloroplast genomes showed that A. prattii has a close genetic relationship with A. cepa and A. sativum.

Complete chloroplast genome sequences of four Allium species: comparative and phylogenetic analyses.

Project description:The genus Allium is one of the largest monocotyledonous genera, containing over 850 species, and most of these species are found in temperate climates of the Northern Hemisphere. Furthermore, as a large number of new Allium species continue to be identified, phylogenetic classification based on morphological characteristics and a few genetic markers will gradually exhibit extremely low discriminatory power. In this study, we present the use of complete chloroplast genome sequences in genome-scale phylogenetic studies of Allium. We sequenced and assembled four Allium chloroplast genomes and retrieved five published chloroplast genomes from GenBank. All nine chloroplast genomes were used for genomic comparison and phylogenetic inference. The chloroplast genomes, ranging from 152,387 bp to 154,482 bp in length, exhibited conservation of genomic structure, and gene organization and order. Subsequently, we observed the expansion of IRs from the basal monocot Acorus americanus to Allium, identified 814 simple sequence repeats, 131 tandem repeats, 154 dispersed repeats and 109 palindromic repeats, and found six highly variable regions. The phylogenetic relationships of the Allium species inferred from the chloroplast genomes obtained high support, indicating that chloroplast genome data will be useful for further resolution of the phylogeny of the genus Allium.

Comparative and phylogenetic analysis of the complete chloroplast genome sequences of Allium mongolicum.

Project description:Allium mongolicum Regel is a wild and sandy vegetable with unique flavours. In this study, a complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. mongolicum was obtained (Genbank accession number: OM630416), and contained 153,609 base pairs with the GC ratio as 36.8%. 130 genes were annotated including 84 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes. The large single-copy (LSC) region was 82,644 bp, and a small single-copy (SSC) region was 18,049 bp, which were separated by two inverted repeats (IRs, including IRa and IRb) of 26,458 bp. Comparative genome analyses of 55 Allium species suggested that genomic structure of genus Allium was conserved, and LSC and SSC regions were outstanding with high variability. Among them, more divergent loci were in the SSC region covering ycf1-rrn4.5 and ndhF-ccsA. Phylogenetic analysis on cp genomes of 55 Allium determined that all members were clustered into 13 clades, and A. mongolicum had close relationship with A. senescens. Corresponding analyses of four protein-coding genes (ycf1, ndhF, rpl32, and ccsA) in aforementioned divergent loci confirmed that ycf1 was finally chosen as the candidate gene for species identification and evolutionary classification of genus Allium. These data provide valuable genetic resources for future research on Allium.
