AI Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on a herb from the Boraginaceae family, known for its widespread presence in temperate Asia and Eastern Europe, and presents the first complete chloroplast genome sequencing of this plant.
- The chloroplast genome measures 147,508 bp, with a GC content of 37.6%, consisting of various regions: a large single-copy region, inverted repeats, and a small single copy.
- It contains 130 predicted genes, including a mix of protein-coding, tRNA, and rRNA genes, and phylogenetic analysis indicates close relationships among specific genera within the Boraginaceae family.
Article Abstract
(Boraginaceae) is an annual or biannual herb widely distributed in temperate Asia and East Europe. The complete chloroplast genome of was sequenced by high-throughput technologies and assembled for the first time. The complete chloroplast genome of was 147,508 bp in length with a GC content of 37.6%, which includes a large single-copy region (80,546 bp), a pair of inverted repeats (24,877 bp), and a small single copy (17,208 bp). GC content of IR regions (43.3%) were higher than LSC (35.5%) and SSC (31.1%) regions. The genome was predicted to encode 130 genes, of which 114 were unique, including 80 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Result from phylogenetic analysis showed that was sister to , and the intergeneric relationships among the six genera sampled in Boraginaceae were well resolved and strongly supported.

Background: Caryophyllaceae contains 100 genera and 3000 species, many of which are valuable both ecologically and economically. However, as past research has shown, the fundamental phylogenetic relationships of Caryophyllaceae are still debatable, and molecular dating based on chloroplast genomes has not been thoroughly examined for the entire family.

Background: Vernicia montana and V. fordii are economically important woody oil species in the Euphorbiaceae that have great industrial oil and ornamental greening properties, however, the wild resources of Vernicia trees have been reduced because of their habitat destruction. Considering the diverse economic and ecological importance of Vernicia species, it is important to collect more molecular data to determine the genetic differences between V.
