Assembly and comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) revealing repeat-mediated recombination and gene transfer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is a renowned fruit plant with significant medicinal value. Its nuclear genome and chloroplast genome (plastome) have been reported, while there is a lack of genetic information on its mitogenome. We sequenced and assembled the complete mitogenome of R. idaeus, and conducted a series of genetic investigations comparing it with the nuclear and chloroplast genomes, so as to better gain a comprehensive understanding of the species' genetic background.

Results

The mitogenome is represented by one circular chromosome of 438,947 bp. Twenty-four core genes, nine variable genes, 26 tRNAs, and three rRNAs were annotated. A total of 52 SSRs and 38 tandem repeat sequences were identified. 533 pairs of dispersed repeats were detected, among whi
