Phylogenomic analysis and development of molecular markers for the determination of twelve plum cultivars (Prunus, Rosaceae).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Plums are one of the most important economic crops of the Rosaceae family and are produced all over the world. China has many local varieties, but the genomic information is limited for genetic studies. Here, we first sequenced, assembled, and analyzed the plastomes of twelve plum cultivars and developed molecular markers to distinguish them.

Results

The twelve plastomes of plum cultivars have a circular structure of 157,863-157,952 bp containing a large single-copy region (LSC) of 86,109-86,287 bp, a small copy region (SSC) of 18,927-19,031 bp, and two inverted repeats (IR) of 26,353-26,387 bp each. The plastomes of plum cultivars encode 131 genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. We detected 50, 54, 54, 53, 53, 50, 54, 54, 54,
