Abstract To improve our understanding of the origin and evolution mycoheterotrophic plants, we here present chromosome-scale genome assemblies two sibling orchid species: partially Platanthera zijinensis holomycoheterotrophic guangdongensis . Comparative analysis shows that mycoheterotrophy is associated with increased substitution rates gene loss, deletion most photoreceptor genes auxin transporter might be linked to unique phenotypes fully orchids. Conversely, trehalase catalyse conversion...
Wolfberry Lycium, an economically important genus of the Solanaceae family, contains approximately 80 species and shows a fragmented distribution pattern among Northern Southern Hemispheres. Although several herbaceous have been subjected to genome sequencing, thus far, no sequences woody representatives available. Here, we sequenced genomes 13 perennial with focus on Lycium barbarum. Integration other provides clear evidence supporting whole-genome triplication (WGT) event shared by all...
Epipogium roseum, commonly known as one of the ghost orchids due to its rarity and almost transparent color, is a non-photosynthetic fully mycoheterotrophic plant. Given special nutritional strategies evolutionary significance, mitogenome was first characterized, three plastomes sampled from Asia were assembled. The found be smallest among Orchidaceae, with lengths ranging 18,339 19,047 bp, exhibited high sequence variety. For mitogenome, total 414,552 bp in length, comprising 26 circular...
Gastrochilus pseudodresslerii (Aeridinae), a new species from Maguan County, Yunnan Province, China, is described and illustrated. Morphological comparisons indicated that this similar to G. dresslerii, but differs by its longer broadly lanceolate oblong leaves, larger elliptic dorsal sepal, petals, subcupular hypochile, narrowed toward apex of column. Phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal ITS four plastid sequences (atpI, matK, psbA trnL-F) also closely related formosanus...
The oomycete genus Phytophthora includes devastating plant pathogens that are found in almost all ecosystems. We sequenced the genomes of two quarantined species–P. fragariae and P. rubi. Comparing these species related genera allowed reconstruction phylogenetic relationships within revealed genomic features associated with infection pathogenicity. several hundred genes putatively inherited from red algae, but does not have vestigial plastids originating phototrophs. horizontally-transferred...
<italic>Annona</italic> is a genus of family Annonaceae within the magnoliids and plays crucial role in revealing evolution magnolias. species provide important fruit resources. Here, we report chromosome-level genome assembly <italic>A. montana</italic>, an edible ornamental species. Integration with other genomes provides clear evidence that were sisters to eudicots, ASTRAL trees showed discordance phylogenetic position magnoliids, which might be caused by incomplete lineage sorting (ILS)....
Malaxidinae is one of the most confusing groups in Orchidaceae classification. Previous phylogenetic analyses have revealed that relationships between taxa not yet been reliably established, using only a few plastome regions and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS). In present study, complete plastomes
The taxonomic status of Vanda coelestis (Rchb.f.) Motes remains a matter discussion. So far, molecular systematic work has not been used to investigate. Here, we conducted the phylogenetic analyses using two datasets, complete plastome and combination traditional sequences (nrITS, matK, psbA-trnH, trnL-trnF). Plastid-based trees indicated that this species was deeply embedded within genus Vanda. In analysis based on combined dataset, further supported as sister V. vietnamica with strong support.
Dendrobium tetrapterum, a cryptic species in the D. lindleyi alliance, is described and illustrated. Detailed morphological comparisons indicate that it similar to jenkinsii but can be distinguished by four characters, namely petals without (vs. with) claw, slit entire) transverse septum at lip base, anther cap with without) indentation on each side rhombic pentagonal–octagonal or oblong) pseudobulb cross-section. Combined geographical distribution whole plastid genome data, we confirm...
The phylogenetic positions of two little-known species Cymbidium (Cymbidiinae) with creeping rhizomatous habit, C. lii and repens, has previously been unclear. Here, we present a comprehensive molecular study the genus based on nuclear ribosomal ITS seven plastid regions. All analyses showed that repens are sister to dayanum, an epiphytic species, high support. However, many topological conflicts in inter- intra-sectional relationships were observed other parts trees, supporting existence...
Bulbophyllum xiajinchangense (Orchidaceae), a new species from Yunnan province, China, is described and illustrated. It morphologically similar to B. scabratum, but differs by its free (vs. convergent) lateral sepals, the ratio of mean lateral/dorsal sepal length (ca. 2.0 vs. ca. 3.0), purplish-red pale yellow-ochre) flowers. Phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal ITS two plastid (matK psbA-trnH) sequences support as distinct species, which forms an independent lineage sister...
