The complete chloroplast genome of pioneering plant Cyperus iria L. (Cyperaceae) in ecological restoration.

ABSTRACT: Cyperus iria L. is an annual weed of the family Cyperaceae, which plays an important role in the environmental remediation of uranium contaminate. Here, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Cyperus iria has been reconstructed from the complete genome Illumina sequencing data. The complete cp genome was 185,697 bp in length, containing a large single copy region (LSC) of 99,360 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 10,267 bp, which were separated by a pair of 38,035 bp inverted repeat regions (IRs). The cp genome contained 135 genes, including 89 protein-coding genes (PCGs), eight rRNA genes, and 38 tRNA genes. The cp genome has a GC content of 33.16%. Further, the phylogenetic analysis showed a strong sister relationship with Cyperus rotundus.

Project description:BackgroundCyperus stoloniferus is an important species in coastal ecosystems and possesses economic and ecological value. To elucidate the structural characteristics, variation, and evolution of the organelle genome of C. stoloniferus, we sequenced, assembled, and compared its mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes.ResultsWe assembled the mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes of C. stoloniferus. The total length of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) was 927,413 bp, with a GC content of 40.59%. It consists of two circular DNAs, including 37 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and five rRNAs. The length of the chloroplast genome (cpDNA) was 186,204 bp, containing 93 PCGs, 40 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. The mtDNA and cpDNA contained 81 and 129 tandem repeats, respectively, and 346 and 1,170 dispersed repeats, respectively, both of which have 270 simple sequence repeats. The third high-frequency codon (RSCU > 1) in the organellar genome tended to end at A or U, whereas the low-frequency codon (RSCU < 1) tended to end at G or C. The RNA editing sites of the PCGs were relatively few, with only 9 and 23 sites in the mtDNA and cpDNA, respectively. A total of 28 mitochondrial plastid DNAs (MTPTs) in the mtDNA were derived from cpDNA, including three complete trnT-GGU, trnH-GUG, and trnS-GCU. Phylogeny and collinearity indicated that the relationship between C. stoloniferus and C. rotundus are closest. The mitochondrial rns gene exhibited the greatest nucleotide variability, whereas the chloroplast gene with the greatest nucleotide variability was infA. Most PCGs in the organellar genome are negatively selected and highly evolutionarily conserved. Only six mitochondrial genes and two chloroplast genes exhibited Ka/Ks > 1; in particular, atp9, atp6, and rps7 may have undergone potential positive selection.ConclusionWe assembled and validated the mtDNA of C. stoloniferus, which contains a 15,034 bp reverse complementary sequence. The organelle genome sequence of C. stoloniferus provides valuable genomic resources for species identification, evolution, and comparative genomic research in Cyperaceae.
