In this study, sequences analysis of some Citrus species distributed in Turkey's Aegean region was based on the cpDNA psbA-trnH region. The sequences for psbA-trnH regions of the outgroups were retrieved from NCBI GenBank. Genomic DNA was isolated from healthy and green leaves. Total genomic DNA was extracted using GeneMark DNA isolation Plant Kit. The psbA-trnH region was amplified using primers psbA and trnH. DNA sequences were edited using the Sequencher 5.4.6. Sequencing data were analyzed using MEGA 6.0 software. Maximum likelihood (ML) tree was created to determine the relationships between Citrus taxa. cpDNA psbA-trnH sequences ranged between 426 and 470 nucleotides. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree is composed of two clades. The divergence values differed between 0.000 and 0.012. According to the results of the study, the separation of Citrus species in phylogenetic tree obtained with psbA-trnH sequence data was realized. However, it has been found that cpDNA psbA-trnH sequence populations of species belong together. In addition, the phylogenetic relationship between the sequence data of some species belonging to the Rutaceae family taken from NCBI and Citrus species was revealed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
