Rubus chingii var. suavissimus is a special berry plant of Rubus in the Rosaceae family. Its leaves contain high-sweetness, low-calorie, and non-toxic sweet ingredients, known as rubusoside. As a medicine and food biofunctional plant, it is a combination of “tea, sugar, and medicine.” In this study, the complete mitogenome of R. chingii var. suavissimus was successfully assembled and annotated based on PacBio HiFi sequencing technology. The mitogenome of R. chingii var. suavissimus was a typical master circle structure, spanning 432,483 bp and containing 34 unique protein-coding genes (PCGs), 20 tRNAs, and 3 rRNAs. The majority of these PCGs was subjected to purifying selection, and only one gene (ccmB) showed sign of positive selection. The mitogenome of R. chingii var. suavissimus contained a large number of repeats, and the homogeneous fragments transferring between plastid genome and mitogenome, with a total of 55 pairs of mitochondrial plastid sequences (MTPTs), and the total size was 56,913 bp. Comparative analysis showed that the non-coding region in the mitogenome of R. chingii var. suavissimus had undergone frequent rearrangements during evolution, but the coding region was still highly conserved. Furthermore, the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference phylogenetic trees were reconstructed of 10 shared PCGs in 36 plant species. The topological structures of two phylogenetic trees were consistent with the APG IV classification system and had high support rates. In general, this study clarifies the mitogenome of R. chingii var. suavissimus and provides valuable insights into the genetic evolution of the Rosaceae family.

Arrow bamboo (Fargesia qinlingensis) is endemic to the Qinling Mountains and has remarkable adaptive resilience to changing climates. However, its complete mitogenome remains unknown. Using the Illumina and PacBio HiFi sequencing platforms, we found that the mitogenome assembly of the F. qinlingensis has a multi-branched skeleton comprising three linear molecules (M1, M2, and M3), with a length of 442,368 bp and a GC content of 44.05%. Thirty-five unique PCGs were identified in the complete mitogenome, including twenty-four core structural genes, eleven noncore structural genes, three rRNAs, and sixteen tRNAs. The GCU for alanine and CAA for glutamine represented the most significant frequency (RSCU = 1.55) in the codon usage preference. A total of 51, 28, and 14 SSRs were determined on M1, M2, and M3, respectively. The mitogenome contained 149 pairs of dispersed repeats with lengths greater than 30 bp, the most abundant of which were 82 forward and 67 palindromic repeats. A long repeat sequence (14,342 bp) was characterized in mediating mitogenome recombination. DNA transfer analyses suggested that 44 MTPTs (30,943 bp, 6.99%) originated from the plastome. Among the 482 potential C-U/T RNA-editing sites predicted in 35 PCGs, ccmFn (38 times) and ccmC (36 times) shoed the highest frequency. Collinearity and phylogenetic trees revealed the close relationship between F. qinlingensis and Bambusa oldhamii. The primary features of the mitogenome of F. qinlingensis will help decipher the functional mitochondrial traits related to growth performance and climate resilience. Moreover, our findings provide insights into the evolution, environmental adaptation, and sustainable use of subalpine bamboo resources in the Qinling Mountains.
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.
