Characterization and Analysis of the Mitochondrial Genome of Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) by Comparative Genomic Approaches.

ABSTRACT: The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is a major source of protein and essential nutrients for humans. To explore the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships of P. vulgaris, its complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) was sequenced and assembled. The mitogenome is 395,516 bp in length, including 31 unique protein-coding genes (PCGs), 15 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 3 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Among the 31 PCGs, four genes (mttB, nad1, nad4L, and rps10) use ACG as initiation codons, which are altered to standard initiation codons by RNA editing. In addition, the termination codon CGA in the ccmF_C gene is converted to UGA. Selective pressure analysis indicates that the ccmB, ccmF_C, rps1
