AI Article Synopsis

  • Hulless barley is a vital food source for Tibetans and serves as important livestock feed on the Tibetan Plateau, with its complete mitochondrial genome reported to be 416,675 base pairs.
  • The mitochondrial genome contains 34 protein-coding genes, 19 tRNA genes, and 3 rRNA genes, along with various repeats in its structure.
  • Phylogenetic analysis suggests that hulless barley is closely related to another plant species based on the comparison of 11 common protein-coding genes across different plant mitochondrial genomes.

Article Abstract

Hulless barley ( L. var. ) is one of the staple foods for Tibetans and an important livestock feed in the Tibetan Plateau. We report the complete mitochondrial genome of barely. The complete mitochondrial genome size is 416,675 bp. Hulless barely mitochondrial genome encode 34 protein-coding genes, 19 tRNA genes and three rRNA genes. The mitochondrial genome has 50 forward and palindrome repeats totally. Nucleotide sequence of coding region takes over 13.60%, GC content is 44.33%. The maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree based on 11 protein-coding genes common to seven plant mitochondrial genomes using as out-group support that hulless barely is close to species.
