The complete chloroplast genome of Uncaria macrophylla Wall. (Rubiaceae) and its phylogenetic analysis.

ABSTRACT: Uncaria macrophylla Wall. 1824 is one of the five original plants of Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis, and its molecular genetic relationship with other four remains unclear. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of U. macrophylla. The chloroplast genome is 155,145 bp in length, which includes paired inverted repeat regions of 25,665 bp, a large single-copy region of 85,758 bp and a small single-copy region of 18,057 bp. In total, 127 genes were predicted, including 81 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis based on whole chloroplast genome sequences showed that U. macrophylla is closely related to U. rhynchophylla.

Comparative and phylogenetic analysis of the complete chloroplast genomes of Uncaria (Rubiaceae) species.

Project description:The genus Uncaria is famous for its high medicinal value. However, the high morphological similarities and unclear interspecific genetic relationships have posed challenges to the classification and identification of Uncaria species. Here, we newly sequenced six chloroplast genomes of Uncaria species: U. hirsuta, U. rhynchophylla, U. rhynchophylloides, U. homomalla, U. sinensis, and U. lancifolia. Comparisons among the chloroplast genomes of Uncaria species showed their conservation in structure, gene content, and order. Ten highly variable loci could be potentially used as specific molecular markers in the identification of Uncaria species. The third position of codons tended to use A/U base, and natural selection contributed more to the formation of codon usage bias in comparison to mutation pressure. Four genes (rbcL, ndhF, rps8, and ycf2) were detected to be subjected to positive selection. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the genus Uncaria was a monophyletic group, belonging to the tribe Naucleeae. Moreover, U. sinensis was not a variant of U. rhynchophylla. U. rhynchophylloides and U. rhynchophylla were not the same species. The results of the comparative and phylogenetic analysis provide valuable references for further research studies of classification, identification, breeding improvement, and phylogenetic relationships in Uncaria species.

A total of 113 unique genes were predicted, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that U. rhynchophylla was closer to Neolamarckia cadamba.

This study reports the newly sequenced chloroplast genome of Gardenia stenophylla Merr. The complete chloroplast genome of Gardenia stenophylla Merr (155,109 bp, GC content of 37.5%) was shown to have a typical quadripartite structure, containing a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 28,802 bp separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85,396 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,109 bp. The chloroplast genome contained 151 genes encoding 106 proteins, 37 tRNAs, and eight rRNAs. The Gardenia stenophylla Merr chloroplast genome displayed the closest phylogenetic relationship to Gardenia jasminoides and Gardenia jasminoides var. grandiflora. These data will assist in future molecular phylogenetics of the Rubiaceae.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete chloroplast genome of Ophiorrhiza pumila (Rubiaceae).

Project description:Ophiorrhiza pumila (Rubiaceae) is an herbaceous plant that grows streamside in forest gullies or wetlands in the shade. Complete chloroplast genome of O. pumila was obtained and analyzed its phylogeny relationship within Rubiaceae plants. The results showed that the genome had a typical quadripartite structure of 154,385 bp, and contained a total of 112 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that O. pumila is sister to a highly supported clade composed of 10 species including Morinda officinalis, Gynochthodes cochinchinensis, Saprosma merrillii, Hedyotis ovata, Foonchewia guangdongensis, Dunnia sinensis, Paederia scandens, Leptodermis scabrida, Rubia cordifolia, and Galium mollugo.

Complete chloroplast genome data of Shorea macrophylla (Engkabang): Structural features, comparative and phylogenetic analysis.

Project description:Shorea macrophylla belongs to the Shorea genus under the Dipterocarpaceae family. It is a woody tree that grows in the rainforest in Southeast Asia. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of S. macrophylla is reported here. The genomic size of S. macrophylla is 150,778 bp and it possesses a circular structure with conserved constitute regions of large single copy (LSC, 83,681 bp) and small single copy (SSC, 19,813 bp) regions, as well as a pair of inverted repeats with a length of 23,642 bp. It has 112 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The genome exhibits a similar GC content, gene order, structure, and codon usage when compared to previously reported chloroplast genomes from other plant species. The chloroplast genome of S. macrophylla contained 262 SSRs, the most prevalent of which was A/T, followed by AAT/ATT. Furthermore, the sequences contain 43 long repeat sequences, practically most of them are forward or palindrome type long repeats. The genome structure of S. macrophylla was compared to the genomic structures of closely related species from the same family, and eight mutational hotspots were discovered. The phylogenetic analysis demonstrated a close relationship between Shorea and Parashorea species, indicating that Shorea is not monophyletic. The complete chloroplast genome sequence analysis of S. macrophylla reported in this paper will contribute to further studies in molecular identification, genetic diversity, and phylogenetic research.
