Lophostemon confertus (Myrtaceae), a fast-growing ornamental tree, is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions. To determine its phylogenetic position within Myrtaceae, here we report its complete chloroplast (cp) genome, which is 160,297 bp long and contains two inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,490 bp each, separated by a small single-copy region of 18,826 bp and a large single-copy region of 88,491 bp. The cp genome contains 123 genes, including 73 unique protein-coding genes (six duplicated in the IR regions), 29 unique tRNA genes (seven duplicated in the IR regions), and four unique rRNA genes (all located in the IR regions). Phylogenetic analysis of 18 species of Myrtaceae showed that L. confertus is sister to Xanthostemon chrysanthus. The complete cp genome of L. confertus provides a valuable genetic resource for further phylogenetic studies.

“…This is not surprising given that previous studies testing the efficacy of Bayesian vs. non-Bayesian dating methods have shown that treePL typically overestimates the ages and has narrower confidence intervals than RelTime (Costa et al, 2022). Even so, treePL is still being used with larger datasets (i.e., Li et al, 2019;Janssens et al, 2020;Maurin et al, 2022) given it is computationally less intense than RelTime and other Bayesian dating methods (Mello et al, 2017;Tao et al, 2020;Barba-Montoya, 2021;Costa et al, 2022).…”

Resolving evolutionary relationships in the groundsels: phylogenomics, divergence time estimates, and biogeography ofPackera(Asteraceae: Senecioneae)

The genus Packera belongs to the sunflower family and contains an estimated 64 species and varieties endemic to North America. Some Packera are known to hybridize or exhibit polyploidy, making it difficult to reconstruct evolutionary relationships within the group. Previous molecular phylogenetic studies of Packera employing ITS data recovered low resolution trees, providing little information on the evolutionary relationships within this complex genus. Therefore, we used next-generation sequencing data to infer nuclear and plastid phylogenies of Packera and related Senecioneae taxa. The nuclear phylogeny was calibrated to produce a timetree, then used to reconstruct the macroevolutionary history of Packera, including its historical biogeography. We then compared the reconstructed evolutionary history to previously published scenarios based on phylogenetic and geohistorical data. We found that the nuclear and plastid phylogenies were highly incongruent, with the nuclear tree presenting higher resolution than the plastid tree which had an apparent lack of plastid diversity. The nuclear tree indicated that geography may have played a major role in the evolution and taxonomic diversification of Packera. The estimated origin of Packera at approximately 19.2MY - 25.9MY (late Oligocene to early Miocene) is older than in most other studies. Nonetheless, it aligns well with previous geohistorical predictions, which suggest that speciation and diversification events in Packera were driven by changes in geography and climate in North America. Moreover, Packera likely originated in the western United States or Mexico, and subsequently diversified north and east into the rest of North America and Russia, in agreement with other studies.

The subfamily Polygonoideae encompasses a diverse array of medicinal and horticultural plants that hold significant economic value. However, due to the lack of a robust taxonomy based on phylogenetic relationships, the classification within this family is perplexing, and there is also a scarcity of reports on the chloroplast genomes of many plants falling under this classification. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis by sequencing and characterizing the complete chloroplast genomes of six Polygonoideae plants, namely Pteroxygonum denticulatum, Pleuropterus multiflorus, Pleuropterus ciliinervis, Fallopia aubertii, Fallopia dentatoalata, and Fallopia convolvulus. Our findings revealed that these six plants possess chloroplast genomes with a typical quadripartite structure, averaging 162,931 bp in length. Comparative chloroplast analysis, codon usage analysis, and repetitive sequence analysis demonstrated a high level of conservation within the chloroplast genomes of these plants. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis unveiled a distinct clade occupied by P. denticulatum, while P. ciliinrvis displayed a closer relationship to the three plants belonging to the Fallopia genus. Selective pressure analysis based on maximum likelihood trees showed that a total of 14 protein-coding genes exhibited positive selection, with psbB and ycf1 having the highest number of positive amino acid sites. Additionally, we identified four molecular markers, namely petN-psbM, psal-ycf4, ycf3-trnS-GGA, and trnL-UAG-ccsA, which exhibit high variability and can be utilized for the identification of these six plants.
