The complete plastome sequence of Pentactina rupicola Nakai (Rosaceae), a genus endemic to Korea

Abstract

The complete plastid genome (plastome) of Pentactina rupicola Nakai, the sole member of genus Pentactina , endemic to Korea, was determined in this study. The plastome of P. rupicola is 156,612 bp in length and is composed of a pair of 26,351 bp inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb) separating large (LSC) and small (SSC) single-copy regions of 84,970 and 18,940 bp, respectively (NCBI acc. no. NC 016921). The plastome encodes 129 genes, of which 112 are unique, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Seventeen genes contain one intron and the ycf 3 gene has two introns. The second intron of clp P is absent in the P. rupicola plastome. The AT content of P. rupicola is 63% overall, and in the LSC, SSC, and IR regions is 65%, 69%, and 58%, respectively. A total of 63 simple sequence repeats (SSR) are distributed among the noncoding regions of the genome. Phylogenetic analysis of the combined 82-gene data set for 35 plastomes suggests that P. rupicola is sister to the Pyrusmalus clade.

Complete Chloroplast Genomes from Sanguisorba: Identity and Variation Among Four Species

“…The average GC content of the four Sanguisorba cp genomes was ~37.23%; in this respect they showed only minor differences from one another and resembled the cp genomes of other reported Rosaceae species [ 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Nevertheless, the GC content is unevenly distributed in the four Sanguisorba cp genomes.…”
