Assembly of the durian chloroplast genome using long PacBio reads

Abstract: We have assembled the complete sequence of the Durio zibethinus chloroplast genome using long PacBio reads. Durian is a valuable commercial tree that produces durian fruit, which is popular in Southeast Asia. The chloroplast genome assembled into a single 143 kb cyclic contig that contained 111 genes. There were 46 short direct repeats (45 to 586 bp) and five short inverted repeats (63 to 169 bp). The long reads that were used for the assembly span the entire chloroplast with > 10 kb overlaps and multiple l… Show more

“…For instance, nine genes were transferred from the SSC to the IR region in Plantago ovata resulting in an extremely long IR (37.4 kb) 25 as compared to IR found in the other plastomes which normally range between 25 kb and 30 kb 40 . In contrast, the loss of IR had been reported in the plastomes of 25 durian varieties recently 37 .…”

“…In this study, a complete mangosteen plastome of Mesta variety (156,580 bp) was successfully obtained from PacBio long reads. Here, the use of long reads for the assembly of the plastid genomes was ideal to obtain longer contigs and to resolve repetitive regions 26,36,37 . In addition, Illumina sequencing data were used to correct the random errors within PacBio reads 38 .…”

“…This effect is more pronounced in tetraploid genomes, since they have more alternative haplotype versions of the same region. Long-read sequencing technologies such as PacBio ( Shearman et al 2020 ; Vollger et al 2020 ) and Nanopore ( Kuderna et al 2019 ; Low et al 2019 ; Kinkar et al 2021 ) aim to overcome the problem of heterozygosity, allowing more space for overlaps during assembly ( Jiao and Schneeberger 2017 ). Further sequencing technologies such as proximity ligation and optical mapping help resolving areas that are difficult to assemble ( Field et al 2020 ).…”

“…A total of 18 genes had introns, and three genes ( ycf3 , clpP, and rps12 ) contained two introns. Despite typically highly conserved, gene relocation and structural variation in IR and single-copy regions are very common ( de Santana Lopes et al, 2018 ; Shearman et al, 2020 ; Guo et al, 2021 ). The cp genome structures of 10 representative Acer species are shown in Supplementary Figure S1 .…”
