[PMID: 37884103 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
Nepeta bracteata (N. bracteata) is an important medicinal plant used by Chinese ethnic minorities. However, the lack of knowledge regarding the chloroplast genome of N. bracteata has imposed current limitations on our study. Here, we used Next-generation sequencing to obtain the chloroplast genome of N. bracteata. The findings suggested that the 151,588 bp cp genome of N. bracteata comprises 130 genes, including 35 tRNA genes and 87 protein-coding genes. And its chloroplast genome exhibits a typical quadripartite structure, the largest single copy (LSC; 82,819 bp) and the smallest single copy (SSC; 17,557 bp) separate a pair of inverted repeats IR regions (IRa and IRb; 25,606 bp) from one another. Interestingly, palindromic repeats are more common, as shown by the examination of repetition. In the interim, 18 SSRs were discovered in the interim, the bulk of which were Adenine-Thymine (A-T) mononucleotides. Meanwhile, we compared it with five other species from the Nepeta genus. Five hypervariable areas were found by the study, including ndhH-rps15, accD-psal, ndhG-ndhl, trnH-GUG-psbA, and rpoC1-rpoB. Furthermore, the phylogenetic study revealed that N. bracteata and Nepeta stewartiana (N. stewartiana) were linked to each other most closely. In summary, our findings enrich the resources available for chloroplast genomes in the Nepeta genus. Moreover, these hypervariable regions have the potential to be developed into molecular markers, enabling the rapid identification of species within the Nepeta genus. Comparative analysis of species within the Nepeta genus can help enhance our study of their phylogenetic relationships, potential medicinal properties and bioprospecting.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1111968. [PMID: 36818825 PMCID: PMC9931742 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1111968] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Hibiscus syriacus, a member of the tribe Hibisceae, is considered an important ornamental and medicinal plant in east Asian countries. Here, we sequenced and assembled the complete chloroplast genome of H. syriacus var. Baekdansim using the PacBio long-read sequencing platform. A quadripartite structure with 161,026 base pairs was obtained, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IRA and IRB) with 25,745 base pairs, separated by a large single-copy region of 89,705 base pairs and a short single-copy region of 19,831 base pairs. This chloroplast genome had 79 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA genes, 4 ribosomal RNA genes, and 109 simple sequence repeat regions. Among them, ndhD and rpoC1, containing traces of RNA-editing events associated with adaptive evolution, were identified by analysis of putative RNA-editing sites. Codon usage analysis revealed a preference for A/U-terminated codons. Furthermore, the codon usage pattern had a clustering tendency similar to that of the phylogenetic analysis of the tribe Hibisceae. This study provides clues for understanding the relationships and refining the taxonomy of the tribe Hibisceae.

Abstract
Periploca forrestii, a medicinal plant of the family Apocynaceae, is known as an effective and widely used clinical prescription for the treatment of rheumatoid diseases. In this study, we de novo sequenced and assembled the completement chloroplast (cp) genome of P. forrestii based on combined Oxford Nanopore PromethION and Illumina data. The cp genome was 153 724 bp in length and had four subregions. Moreover, an 84 433 bp large single-copy and a 17 731 bp small single-copy were separated by 25 780 bp inverted repeats (IRs). The cp genome included 132 genes with 18 duplicates in the IRs. A total of 45 repeat structures and 183 simple sequence repeats were detected. Codon usage showed a bias toward A/T-ending codons. A comparative study of Apocynaceae revealed that an IR expansion occurred on P. forrestii. The Ka/Ks values of eight species of Apocynaceae suggested that positive selection was exerted on the psaI and ycf2 genes, which might reflect specific adaptions to the P. forrestii particular growth environment. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that Periplocoideae was a sister to Asclepiadoideae, forming a monophyletic group in the family Apocynaceae. This study provided an important P. forrestii genomic resource for future evolutionary studies and the phylogenetic reconstruction of the family Apocynaceae.

Heliyon 2022; 8:e12557. [PMID: 36643327 PMCID: PMC9834756 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e12557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 08/09/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Phoenix Dancong tea, a variety of oolong tea, is produced in Chaozhou, Guangdong Province, China, and is characterized by numerous hybridizations and polyploidization. To assess the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships among Phoenix Dancong tea and other oolong teas, an integrated circular chloroplast genome was constructed for thirty species of Phoenix Dancong tea from Chaozhou. The genome of Phoenix dancong tea is a circular molecule of 157,041-157,137 bp, with a pair of inverted repeats (26,072-26,610 bp each) separated by a large single copy (86,615-86,658 bp) and small single copy (18,264-18,284 bp). A total of 135 unique genes were encoded, including 90 protein coding genes, 37 tRNAs and 8 rRNAs. A comparative analysis with the other seven species in the oolong tea family that have been sequenced to date revealed similarities in structural organization, gene content and arrangement. Repeated sequence analysis identified 17-23 tandem repeats, 20-24 forward repeats and 25-27 palindromic repeats. Additionally, a total of 65-70 simple sequence repeats were detected, with mononucleotide repeats being the most common. Phylogenetic analyses showed that Phoenix Dancong tea and Fujian oolong tea were clustered with other cultivated Camellia sinensis in the genus Camellia of the family Theaceae, while the two oolong tea species were relatively independently cross-embedded in the genus, Camellia. Close genetic relationships were observed between Phoenix Dancong tea and other oolong teas, and the overall chloroplast genomes of oolong tea showed patterns with low variations and conserved evolution. The availability of Phoenix Dancong tea chloroplast genomes not only elucidated the relationship among oolong teas from different origins in Guangdong and Fujian but also provided valuable genetic resources to assist further molecular studies on the taxonomic and phylogenomic resolution of the genus Camellia.

Abstract
Callicarpa macrophylla Vahl. belongs to the family Lamiaceae. Its root is a widely used Yao Medicine (YM) to treat internal and external bleeding at the Yao minority areas in southern China. Here, we provide the complete chloroplast genome of C. macrophylla which was collected from Laibin city in Guangxi, China. The total length of the chloroplast genome is 154,141 bp, including a large single-copy (LSC) region, a small single-copy (SSC) region, and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) regions which are separated by the LSC and SSC, with lengths of 84,904 bp, 17,839 bp, and 25,699 bp, respectively. One hundred and thirty-one genes were identified, including 89 protein-coding genes, 34 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content is 38%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that C. macrophylla is closely related to C. integerrima var. chinensis.
