Complete chloroplast genome of Hevea benthamiana, a SALB-resistant relative wild species of rubber tree.

ABSTRACT: Hevea benthamiana is a SALB-resistant wild species of H. brasiliensis, the only source of mass production of high quality natural rubber. This study sequenced and analyzed the chloroplast genome of H. benthamiana. The chloroplast genome of H. benthamiana contains 161,124 bp and consists of 51,495 bp of A (31.96%), 52,022 bp of T (32.29%), 28,915 bp of G (17.95%), and 28,692 bp of C (17.81%). The ring-shaped genome includes four regions: a large single-copy region (LSC, 89,110 bp), a small single copy (SSC, 18,376 bp) region, and two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 26,819 bp). A total of 134 genes were annotated, of which 86 encode proteins; four are pseudogenes; 36 are tRNA genes, and eight are rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analyses showed that H. benthamiana is very closely related to H. Brasiliensis, this result indicates that H. benthamiana is highly valuable for the breeding of SALB-resistant varieties of rubber trees.

Project description:Among rubber tree species, which belong to the Hevea genus of the Euphorbiaceae family, Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr.de Juss.) Muell. Arg. is the main commercial source of natural rubber production worldwide. Knowledge of the population structure and linkage disequilibrium (LD) of this species is essential for the efficient organization and exploitation of genetic resources. Here, we obtained single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach and then employed the SNPs for the following objectives: (i) to identify the positions of SNPs on a genetic map of a segregating mapping population, (ii) to evaluate the population structure of a germplasm collection, and (iii) to detect patterns of LD decay among chromosomes for future genetic association studies in rubber tree. A total of 626 genotypes, including both germplasm accessions (368) and individuals from a genetic mapping population (254), were genotyped. A total of 77,660 and 21,283 SNPs were detected by GBS in the germplasm and mapping populations, respectively. The mapping population, which was previously mapped, was constructed with 1,062 markers, among which only 576 SNPs came from GBS, reducing the average interval between two adjacent markers to 4.4 cM. SNPs from GBS genotyping were used for the analysis of genetic structure and LD estimation in the germplasm accessions. Two groups, which largely corresponded to the cultivated and wild populations, were detected using STRUCTURE and via principal coordinate analysis. LD analysis, also using the mapped SNPs, revealed that non-random associations varied along chromosomes, with regions of high LD interspersed with regions of low LD. Considering the length of the genetic map (4,693 cM) and the mean LD (0.49 for cultivated and 0.02 for wild populations), a large number of evenly spaced SNPs would be needed to perform genome-wide association studies in rubber tree, and the wilder the genotypes used, the more difficult the mapping saturation.
