Project description:Microsatellite primers were developed to characterize the genetic diversity and structure of the annual herb Atriplex tatarica (Amaranthaceae) and to facilitate ecological and evolutionary studies of A. tatarica and its relatives. Sixteen novel microsatellite primers were developed for A. tatarica based on high-throughput sequencing of enriched libraries. All markers were polymorphic, with the number of alleles per locus ranging from three to 25 and observed and expected heterozygosity ranging from 0.08 to 0.74 and 0.10 to 0.87, respectively. In addition, some of these loci were successfully amplified and showed polymorphisms in four Atriplex and seven Chenopodium species. The microsatellite markers published here will be useful in assessing genetic diversity, structure, and gene flow within and across populations of A. tatarica, as well as in other species of Atriplex and the related genus Chenopodium.
Project description:Lonicera tatarica L. is an excellent landscaping shrub with high ornamental value. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequence of L. tatarica. The size of the chloroplast genome is 154,675 bp in length, including a large single copy region (LSC) of 88,361 bp, a small single copy region (SSC) of 18,750 bp, and a pair of inverted repeated regions of 23,782 bp. The L. tatarica chloroplast genome encodes 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding, 38 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis fully resolved L. tatarica in a clade with L. japonica, L. confusa, and L. maximowiczii. These data provide a useful resource when studying the genetic diversity of L. tatarica.
