Complete chloroplast genome sequencing and comparative analysis of threatened dragon trees Dracaena serrulata and Dracaena cinnabari

Abstract: Dracaena (Asparagaceae family) tree is famous for producing "dragon blood"—a bioactive red-colored resin. Despite its long history of use in traditional medicine, little knowledge exists on the genomic architecture, phylogenetic position, or evolution. Hence, in this study, we sequenced the whole chloroplast (cp) genomes of D. serrulata and D. cinnabari and performed comparative genomics of nine genomes of the genus Dracaena. The results showed that the genome sizes range from 155,055 (D. elliptica) to 155,449… Show more

“…The current information regarding the chloroplast genome structure and comparative genome analysis of Convallarioideae is rare. Most studies were focusing on the genus level, such as Convallaria [19], Polygonatum [10], and Dracaena [20]. In this paper, we have selected representative species from the major lineages of Convallarioideae, including three newly sequenced and assembled plastids from Theropogon, Maianthemum, and Ophiopogon, and other four lineages of the Convallarioideae obtained from the GenBank (i.e., Convallaria, Dracaena, Nolina and Ruscus).…”
