Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Pterygocalyx volubilis (Gentianaceae).

ABSTRACT: Pterygocalyx volubilis Maxim. (Gentianaceae) is a traditional Chinese medicine, and its whole grass is used in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis and other conditions. Here, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of P. volubilis was reported based on the Illumina HiSeq Platform. The chloroplast genome genome is 154,365 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeated (IR) regions (25,928 bp) that are separated by a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,033 bp, and a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,476 bp. Moreover, a total of 130 functional genes were annotated, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. In the maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree, Pterygocalyx clustered with the genus Swertia. This sequenced chloroplast genome of P. volubilis supports that Pterygocalyx belongs to subtribe Swertiinae.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the biofuel plant Sacha Inchi, Plukenetia volubilis.

Project description:Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) is a potential woody oil seed plant for producing healthy vegetable oil due to high content of α-linolenic acid in its seeds. In this study, we report the structure of the complete chloroplast genome of P. volubilis using high-throughput next-generation sequencing technology. The circular chloroplast genome is 161,733 bp in size, containing a pair of inverted repeat regions (IR) of 27,382 bp each, which were separated by a large single copy region (LSC) of 88,843 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 18,126 bp. The chloroplast genome harbors 135 genes, including 92 protein-coding genes, 35 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. Based on the phylogenetic relationships between the chloroplast genome of P. volubilis and those of the other species, P. volubilis is most closely related to castor bean (Ricinus communis).

The Complete Chloroplast Genome of Plukenetia volubilis Provides Insights Into the Organelle Inheritance.

Project description:Plukenetia volubilis L. (Malpighiales: Euphorbiaceae), also known as Sacha inchi, is considered a promising crop due to its high seed content of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), all of them highly valuable for food and cosmetic industries, but the genetic basis of oil biosynthesis of this non-model plant is still insufficient. Here, we sequenced the total DNA of Sacha inchi by using Illumina and Nanopore technologies and approached a de novo reconstruction of the whole nucleotide sequence and the organization of its 164,111 bp length of the chloroplast genome, displaying two copies of an inverted repeat sequence [inverted repeat A (IRA) and inverted repeat B (IRB)] of 28,209 bp, each one separating a small single copy (SSC) region of 17,860 bp and a large single copy (LSC) region of 89,833 bp. We detected two large inversions on the chloroplast genome that were not presented in the previously reported sequence and studied a promising cpDNA marker, useful in phylogenetic approaches. This chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) marker was used on a set of five distinct Colombian cultivars of P. volubilis from different geographical locations to reveal their phylogenetic relationships. Thus, we evaluated if it has enough resolution to genotype cultivars, intending to crossbreed parents and following marker's trace down to the F1 generation. We finally elucidated, by using molecular and cytological methods on cut flower buds, that the inheritance mode of P. volubilis cpDNA is maternally transmitted and proposed that it occurs as long as it is physically excluded during pollen development. This de novo chloroplast genome will provide a valuable resource for studying this promising crop, allowing the determination of the organellar inheritance mechanism of some critical phenotypic traits and enabling the use of genetic engineering in breeding programs to develop new varieties.
