The phylogenetic positions of the families Campynemataceae and Corsiaceae within the order Liliales remains unclear. To date, molecular data from the plastid genome of Corsiaceae has been obtained exclusively from Arachnitis, for which alignment and phylogenetic inference has proved difficult. The extent of gene conservation among mycoheterotrophic species within Corsiaceae remains unknown. To clarify the phylogenetic position of Campynemataceae and Corsiaceae within Liliales, functional plastid-coding genes of species representing both families have been analyzed. Examination of two phylogenetic data sets of plastid genes employing parsimony, maximum-likelihood, and Bayesian inference methods strongly supported both families forming a basal clade to the remaining taxa of Liliales. The first data set consists of five functional plastid-encoded genes (matK, rps7, rps2, rps19, and rpl2) sequenced from Corsia dispar (Corsiaceae). The data set included 31 species representing all families within Liliales, as well as selected orders that are related closely to Liliales (10 outgroup species from Asparagales, Dioscoreales, and Pandanales). The second phylogenetic analysis was based on 75 plastid genes. This data set included 18 species from Liliales, representing major clades within the order, and 10 outgroup species from Asparagales, Dioscoreales, and Pandanales. In this latter data set, Campynemataceae was represented by 60 plastid-encoded genes sequenced from herbarium material of Campynema lineare. A large proportion of the plastid genome of C. dispar was also sequenced and compared to the plastid genomes of photosynthetic plants within Liliales and mycoheterotrophic plants within Asparagales to explore plastid genome reduction. The plastid genome of C. dispar is in the advanced stages of reduction, which signifies its high dependency on mycorrhizal fungi and is suggestive of a loss in photosynthetic ability. Functional plastid genes found in C. dispar may be applicable to other species in Corsiaceae, which will provide a basis for in-depth molecular analyses of interspecies relationships within the family, once molecular data from other members become available. 相似文献

This work reports the complete plastid (pt) DNA sequence of Seseli montanum L. of the Apiaceae family, determined using next-generation sequencing technology. The complete genome sequence has been deposited in GenBank with accession No. KM035851. The S. montanum plastome is 147,823 bp in length. The plastid genome has a typical structure for angiosperms and contains a large single-copy region (LSC) of 92,620 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 17,481 bp separated by a pair of 18,861 bp inverted repeats (IRa and IRb). The composition, gene order, and AT-content in the S. montanum plastome are similar to that of a typical flowering plant pt DNA. One hundred fourteen unique genes have been identified, including 30 tRNA genes, four rRNA genes, and 80 protein genes. Of 18 intron-containing genes found, 16 genes have one intron, and two genes (ycf3, clpP) have two introns. Comparative analysis of Apiaceae plastomes reveals in the S. montanum plastome a LSC/IRb junction shift, so that the part of the ycf2 (4980 bp) gene is located in the LSC, but the other part of ycf2 (1301 bp) is within the inverted repeat. Thus, structural rearrangements in the plastid genome of S. montanum result in an enlargement of the LSC region by means of capture of a large part of ycf2, in contrast to eight Apiaceae plastomes where the complete ycf2 gene sequence is located in the inverted repeat. 相似文献

Background
The evolution of photosynthesis has been a major driver in eukaryotic diversification. Eukaryotes have acquired plastids (chloroplasts) either directly via the engulfment and integration of a photosynthetic cyanobacterium (primary endosymbiosis) or indirectly by engulfing a photosynthetic eukaryote (secondary or tertiary endosymbiosis). The timing and frequency of secondary endosymbiosis during eukaryotic evolution is currently unclear but may be resolved in part by studying cryptomonads, a group of single-celled eukaryotes comprised of both photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic species. While cryptomonads such as Guillardia theta harbor a red algal-derived plastid of secondary endosymbiotic origin, members of the sister group Goniomonadea lack plastids. Here, we present the genome of Goniomonas avonlea—the first for any goniomonad—to address whether Goniomonadea are ancestrally non-photosynthetic or whether they lost a plastid secondarily.Results
We sequenced the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes of Goniomonas avonlea and carried out a comparative analysis of Go. avonlea, Gu. theta, and other cryptomonads. The Go. avonlea genome assembly is ~?92 Mbp in size, with 33,470 predicted protein-coding genes. Interestingly, some metabolic pathways (e.g., fatty acid biosynthesis) predicted to occur in the plastid and periplastidal compartment of Gu. theta appear to operate in the cytoplasm of Go. avonlea, suggesting that metabolic redundancies were generated during the course of secondary plastid integration. Other cytosolic pathways found in Go. avonlea are not found in Gu. theta, suggesting secondary loss in Gu. theta and other plastid-bearing cryptomonads. Phylogenetic analyses revealed no evidence for algal endosymbiont-derived genes in the Go. avonlea genome. Phylogenomic analyses point to a specific relationship between Cryptista (to which cryptomonads belong) and Archaeplastida.Conclusion
We found no convincing genomic or phylogenomic evidence that Go. avonlea evolved from a secondary red algal plastid-bearing ancestor, consistent with goniomonads being ancestrally non-photosynthetic eukaryotes. The Go. avonlea genome sheds light on the physiology of heterotrophic cryptomonads and serves as an important reference point for studying the metabolic “rewiring” that took place during secondary plastid integration in the ancestor of modern-day Cryptophyceae.17.

Alders (Alnus spp.) represent keystone species trees of riparian and mountainous habitats of the northern hemisphere. Previous genetic studies have suggested a complex intrageneric diversification with numerous events of interspecific hybridization and polyploidization. Here, we first aim to test the present taxonomical treatment of Alnus by generating phylogenetic hypotheses based on plastid and nuclear data obtained from species belonging to the three main alder subgenera (Alnus, Alnobetula, and Clethropsis). A genome-skimming strategy was used to assemble the complete plastome and the nuclear ribosomal DNA cluster of 22 Eurasian and American alder individuals. Phylogenies based on these data strongly support an early diverging subgenus Alnobetula, while members of the subgenus Clethropsis do not constitute a monophyletic clade and are embedded within the subgenus Alnus. Incongruent topologies also sustain reticulate evolution within this group. Our results thus suggest considering the subgenera Clethropsis and Alnus within the same taxonomical unit. Our second aim is to test for the utility of highly variable plastid markers (microsatellites) to investigate the phylogeographic patterns of Eurasian alder species. Fifty-two polymorphic plastid microsatellite markers were developed and tested on 33 populations of the subgenus Alnus in western Eurasia. On average, 4.3 alleles per locus were revealed in 131 individuals of Alnus glutinosa, allowing the identification of 30 chlorotypes (multiloci profiles). Strong phylogeographic signals and recurrent cytoplasmic captures between co-occurring species are revealed, demonstrating that our plastid microsatellite profiling method is suitable for tracing the post-glacial spread of maternal lineages among alder species. All these results finally support the use of nuclear genomic regions for species identification and of plastid markers for phylogeographic aspects and origin certification in genetic resource management. 相似文献

Arabidopsis CK2 α4 subunit regulates the primary root and hypocotyl elongation, lateral root formation, cotyledon expansion, rosette leaf initiation and growth, flowering, and anthocyanin biosynthesis.Abstract
Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a conserved tetrameric kinase composed of two α and two β subunits. The inhibition of CK2 activity usually results in severe developmental deficiency. Four genes (CKA1–CKA4) encode CK2 α subunit in Arabidopsis. Single mutations of CKA1, CKA2, and CKA3 do not affect the normal growth of Arabidopsis, while the cka1 cka2 cka3 triple mutants are defective in cotyledon and hypocotyl growth, lateral root development, and flowering. The inhibition of CKA4 expression in cka1 cka2 cka3 background further reduces the number of lateral roots and delays the flowering time. Here, we report the characterization of a novel knockout mutant of CKA4, which exhibits various developmental defects including reduced primary root and hypocotyl elongation, increased lateral root density, delayed cotyledon expansion, retarded rosette leaf initiation and growth, and late flowering. The examination of the cellular basis for abnormal root development of this mutant revealed reduced root meristem cells with enhanced RETINOBLASTOMA-RELATED (RBR) expression that promotes cell differentiation in root meristem. Moreover, this cka4-2 mutant accumulates higher anthocyanin in the aerial part and shows an increased expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes, suggesting a novel role of CK2 in modulating anthocyanin biosynthesis. In addition, the complementation test using primary root elongation assay as a sample confirms that the changed phenotypes of this cka4-2 mutant are due to the lack of CKA4. Taken together, this study reveals an essential role of CK2 α4 subunit in multiple developmental processes in Arabidopsis.19.

Dictyotophycidae is a subclass of brown algae containing 395 species that are distributed worldwide. A complete plastid (chloroplast) genome (ptDNA or cpDNA) had not previously been sequenced from this group. In this study, the complete plastid genome of Dictyopteris divaricata (Okamura) Okamura (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) was characterized and compared to other brown algal ptDNAs. This plastid genome was 126,099 bp in size with two inverted repeats (IRs) of 6026 bp. The D. divaricata IRs contained rpl21, making its IRs larger than representatives from the orders Fucales and Laminariales, but was smaller than that from Ectocarpales. The G + C content of D. divaricata (31.19%) was the highest of the known ptDNAs of brown algae (28.94–31.05%). Two protein-coding genes, rbcR and rpl32, were present in ptDNAs of Laminariales, Ectocarpales (Ectocarpus siliculosus), and Fucales (LEF) but were absent in D. divaricata. Reduced intergenic space (13.11%) and eight pairs of overlapping genes in D. divaricata ptDNA made it the most compact plastid genome in brown algae so far. The architecture of D. divaricata ptDNA showed higher similarity to that of Laminariales compared with Fucales and Ectocarpales. The difference in general features, gene content, and architecture among the ptDNAs of D. divaricata and LEF clade revealed the diversity and evolutionary trends of plastid genomes in brown algae. 相似文献
