The complete sequence of chloroplast genome (cpDNA) has been documented for single large columnar species Cactaceae, lacking inverted repeats (IRs). We sequenced cpDNA seven the short-globose cacti Mammillaria and de novo assembly revealed three novel structures in land plants. These have a copy (LSC) that is 2.5 to 10 times larger than small (SSC), two IRs contain strong differences length gene composition. Structure 1 distinguished by short <1 kb composed rpl23-trnI-CAU-ycf2; with total...
In plants, partial DNA sequences of chloroplasts have been widely used in evolutionary studies. However, the Cactaceae family (1500-1800 species) lacks molecular markers that allow a phylogenetic resolution between species and genera. order to identify with high variation levels, we compared previously reported complete chloroplast genomes seven
Mexico harbors ~45% of world's cacti species richness. Their biogeography and phylogenomics were integrated to elucidate the evolutionary history genera Coryphantha, Escobaria, Mammillaria, Mammilloydia, Neolloydia, Ortegocactus, Pelecyphora (Mammilloid Clade). We analyzed 52 orthologous loci from 142 complete genomes chloroplast (103 taxa) generate a cladogram chronogram; in latter, ancestral distribution was reconstructed with Dispersal-Extinction-Cladogenesis model. The ancestor these...
In angiosperms, huge advances in massive DNA sequencing technologies have impacted phylogenetic studies. Probe sets been developed with the purpose of recovering hundreds orthologous loci targeted sequences (TDS) across different plant lineages. We tested silico effectiveness two universal probe whole available genomes Caryophyllids, emphasizing issues cacti species. A total 870 TDS (517 from Angiosperm v.1 and 353 Angiosperms353) were individually nine species Amaranthus hypochondriacus...
