AI Article Synopsis

  • The text discusses an ornamental tree species and its potential uses in landscaping.
  • It details the complete chloroplast genome of this tree, noting its typical quadripartite structure, which includes distinct regions for single-copy and inverted repeats.
  • The analysis identifies 78 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 30 tRNA genes, and phylogenetic analysis shows its closest relationship with specific other species in the Lythraceae family.

Article Abstract

is a kind of ornamental tree with surprising potential for applying in the landscape. We characterized the complete chloroplast genome of this scarce species and analyzed its phylogeny within Lythraceae. The result showed that the genome possessed a typical quadripartite structure, in more detail, a lager single-copy region (LSC, 88,702bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 18,255bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb, 26,906 bp). 78 protein-coding genes, four ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 30 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes were detected. Phylogenetic analysis based on maximum likelihood (ML) supported the closest relationship between and plus .

The Hypericaceae family, comprising nine genera and over seven hundred species, includes plants traditionally used for medicinal purposes. In this study, we performed high-throughput sequencing on three species: , , and , and conducted comparative genomic analyses with related species. The chloroplast genome sizes were 152,654 bp, 122,570 bp, and 137,652 bp, respectively, with an average GC content of 37.

is a member of the Styracaceae family, which is well-known for its remarkable ornamental and medicinal properties. In this research, we conducted comparative analysis of the chloroplast genomes from four samples of representing . The results demonstrated that the chloroplast genome of four samples ranging from 157,103 bp to 158,357 bp exhibited a typical quadripartite structure, including one large single-copy (LSC) region (90,131 bp to 90,342 bp), one small single-copy (SSC) region (18,467 bp to 18,785 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRs) (24,115 bp to 24,261 bp).

Background: Populus tomentosa, known as Chinese white poplar, is indigenous and distributed across large areas of China, where it plays multiple important roles in forestry, agriculture, conservation, and urban horticulture. However, limited accessibility to the mitochondrial (mt) genome of P. tomentosa impedes phylogenetic and population genetic analyses and restricts functional gene research in Salicaceae family.
