The second complete chloroplast genome sequence of Nymphaea alba L. (Nymphaeaceae) to investigate inner-species variations

Abstract

Nymphaea alba L. which belongs to Nymphaeaceae has been used as gardening plants, foods, and medicines. In this study, we completed whole chloroplast genome of N. alba of which length is 151,925 bp consisting four subregions: 90,001 bp of large single copy (LSC) and 19,562 bp of small single copy (SSC) regions are separated by 25,181 bp of inverted repeat (IR) regions. One hundred and twenty-eight genes (84 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNAs, and 36 tRNAs) were annotated successfully. The overall GC content of the chloroplast genome is 39.2% and those in the LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 37.8%, 34.4%, and 43.4%, respectively. Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms and six insertion and deletions are identified between two N. alba chloroplast genomes. This genome will be used for developing molecular markers and for understating micro-evolutionary events of this species. ARTICLE HISTORY

The complete chloroplast genomes of two cold hardness coffee trees, Coffea arabica L. (Rubiaceae)

“…CH1 and CH2 chloroplast genomes have six insertions and deletions (INDELs) against CH3, another cold hardness coffee ) and two INDELs against TY1 chloroplast. It is similar to those of Camellia japonica (Park, Kim, Xi, Oh, et al 2019b), Cucumis melo (Zhu et al 2016), Chenopodium quinoa (Maughan et al 2019), Abeliophyllum distichum , Salix koriyanagi , Populus alba x Populus glandulosa , and Marchantia polymorpha (4 SNPs; Kwon et al 2019) and smaller than those of other chloroplasts of Pyrus ussuriensis (Cho et al 2019), Pseudostellaria palibiniana , Aconitum coreanum (Kim, Yi, et al 2019), Artemisia fukudo , Goodyera schlechtendaliana (Oh et al 2019), Dysphania pumilio , Nymphaea alba (Park, Kim, Kwon, Nam, et al 2019), Liriodendron tulifipera , Duchesnea chrysantha (Park, Kim, Lee 2019), Illicium anisatum , Salix koriyanagi , Viburnum erosum (Choi et al, 2020), Abeliophyllum distichum , and Camellia japonica (Park, Kim, Xi, Oh et al 2019a).…”

The complete chloroplast genome of tulip tree, Liriodendron tulifipera L. (Magnoliaceae): investigation of intra-species chloroplast variations

“…This amount of intra-species sequence variations is larger than those of Coffea (Park, Xi et al., under review ; Park, Kim, Xi, Nho et al., under review ) and Marchantia (Kwon et al. under review ), similar to that of Nymphaea (Park, Kim, Kwon et al under review ) and smaller than those of Duchesnea (Park, Kim, Lee, under review ), Pseudostellaria (Kim et al., under review ), Camellia (Park, Kim, Xi, et al. under review ), Rehmannia (Jeon et al.…”
