Dataset Information

The complete chloroplast genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of Heritiera fomes Buch.-Ham. (Malvales: Sterculiaceae).

ABSTRACT: Heritiera fomes Buch.-Ham. (1800) is a species of mangrove in the family Malvaceae, widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific and listed as 'endangered' (EN) on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) red list. We reported the complete chloroplast genome sequence of H. fomes. The genome was 168,521 bp in length and included two inverted repeats (IRs) of 34,496 bp, separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,604 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 10,925 bp, respectively. The genome contained 87 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 8 rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree suggested that H. fomes is closely related to Heritiera angustata and Heritiera parvifolia with relatively high support bootstrap values of 86% and 100% with other species (Heritiera littoralis and Heritiera javanica), suggesting a relatively close genetic relationship between the five Heritiera plants. The chloroplast genome sequence provided a useful resource for conservation genetics studies of H. fomes and for phylogenetic studies of Heritiera.

Project description:Aquilaria sinensis (Lour.) Gilg is an important medicinal woody plant producing agarwood, which is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. High-throughput sequencing of chloroplast (cp) genomes enhanced the understanding about evolutionary relationships within plant families. In this study, we determined the complete cp genome sequences for A. sinensis. The size of the A. sinensis cp genome was 159,565 bp. This genome included a large single-copy region of 87,482 bp, a small single-copy region of 19,857 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRa and IRb) of 26,113 bp each. The GC content of the genome was 37.11%. The A. sinensis cp genome encoded 113 functional genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 27 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Seven genes were duplicated in the protein-coding genes, whereas 11 genes were duplicated in the RNA genes. A total of 45 polymorphic simple-sequence repeat loci and 60 pairs of large repeats were identified. Most simple-sequence repeats were located in the noncoding sections of the large single-copy/small single-copy region and exhibited high A/T content. Moreover, 33 pairs of large repeat sequences were located in the protein-coding genes, whereas 27 pairs were located in the intergenic regions. Aquilaria sinensis cp genome bias ended with A/T on the basis of codon usage. The distribution of codon usage in A. sinensis cp genome was most similar to that in the Gonystylus bancanus cp genome. Comparative results of 82 protein-coding genes from 29 species of cp genomes demonstrated that A. sinensis was a sister species to G. bancanus within the Malvales order. Aquilaria sinensis cp genome presented the highest sequence similarity of >90% with the G. bancanus cp genome by using CGView Comparison Tool. This finding strongly supports the placement of A. sinensis as a sister to G. bancanus within the Malvales order. The complete A. sinensis cp genome information will be highly beneficial for further studies on this traditional medicinal plant. Moreover, the results will enhance our understanding about the evolution of cp genomes of the Malvales order, particularly with regard to the role of A. sinensis in plant systematics and evolution.
