The chloroplast genome of the pincushion cactus Mammilllaria haageana subsp. san-a ngelensis, a Mexican endangered species.

ABSTRACT: The genus Mammillaria occupies diverse habitats and exhibits diverse growth patterns and a large range of morphologies. Most of the species of this genus are used as ornamental plants and are subject to mass habitat loss. Due to these factors, they are being submitted to selective pressure that might affect conservational efforts and management plans. We obtained the 133 gene chloroplast genome as part of the project of sequencing the complete genome of pincushion cactus, including 88 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree indicates the pincushion cactus is a sister species of M. supertexta and M. huitzilopochtli.

Complete chloroplast genome sequences of two endangered Phoebe (Lauraceae) species.

Project description:BackgroundPhoebe (Lauraceae) comprises of evergreen trees or shrubs with approximately 100 species, distributed in tropical and subtropical Asia and Neotropical America. A total of 34 species and three varieties occur in China. Despite of economic and ecological value, only limited genomic resources are available for this genus.ResultsWe sequenced the two complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of Phoebe chekiangensis and P. bournei using Illumina sequencing technology via a combined strategy of de novo and reference-guided assembly. We also performed comparative analyses with the cp genomes of P. sheareri and P. sheareri var. oineiensis previously reported. The chloroplast genomes of P. chekiangensis and P. bournei identically contain 112 genes consisting of 78 protein coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes, with the size of 152,849 and 152,853 bp, respectively. From the two chloroplast genomes, 131 SSRs were identified and 12 different SSRs located in five protein coding genes. The analysis showed the extremely conserved structure of chloroplast genomes with surprisingly little variations at the LSC/IR and SSC/IR boundaries. Moreover, the mean nucleotide diversity was found to be 0.162% for 77 regions, suggesting an extraordinarily low level of sequence divergence. Four highest divergent regions (trnH-psbA, rps14-trnT, petA-psbJ, ccsA-ndhD) with the percentage of nucleotide diversity higher than 0.50% were identified, which had potential use for species identification and phylogenetic studies.ConclusionThis study will facilitate our understanding of population genetics, phylogenetic relationship and plant evolution of Phoebe species.

The complete chloroplast genome of the endangered species Cephalotaxus hainanensis (Cephalotaxaceae).

Project description:Cephalotaxus hainanensis is an endangered tree endemic to China with high medicinal values. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of C. hainanensis was de novo assembled using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. The whole chloroplast genome was 136,877 bp long with an asymmetric base composition (32.6% A, 17.6% C, 17.4% G and 32.4% T). The genome annotation predicted a total of 114 genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 28 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The neighbour-joining phylogenetic analysis based on 41 complete chloroplast genome sequences showed that C. hainanensis was more closely related to the congeneric C. sinensis. The assembled chloroplast genome of C. hainanensis will provide useful genomic data both for the phylogenetic research of Cephalotaxus and the conservation of this endangered species.

The complete chloroplast genome of Cycas Szechuanensis, an extremely endangered species.

Project description:In this study, we determined the complete chloroplast genome of Cycas szechuanensis (Cycadaceae, Cycas) using the Illumina sequencing data. The genome is 162,083 bp in length, including a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,003 bp each, which are separated by a large single-copy region (LSC) and a small single-copy region (SSC) with the size of 88,970 and 23,108 bp, respectively. The genome comprises 131 encoded genes in total, including 86 protein-coding genes (82 PCG species), 8 ribosomal RNA genes (4 rRNA species), and 37 transfer RNA genes (30 tRNA species). The overall GC content of the C. szechuanensis chloroplast genome is 39.42%, while the LSC, SSC, and IRs occupy 38.70, 42.03 and 36.52%, respectively. Based on complete chloroplast genome sequences from 13 species, we reconstructed the phylogenetic relationship of the 13 species and found that C. szechuanensis is closely related to C. debaoensis.
