The complete chloroplast genome of the green algae Hariotina reticulata (Scenedesmaceae, Sphaeropleales, Chlorophyta)

Abstract

In this study, the chloroplast genome of Hariotina reticulata was fully sequenced and compared to other Sphaeropleales chloroplast genomes. It is 210,757 bp larger than most Sphaeropleales cpDNAs. It presents a traditional chloroplast structure, and contains 103 genes, including 68 protein-coding genes, six rRNA genes and 29 tRNA genes. The coding region constitutes of 43% of the whole cpDNA. Eighteen introns are found in 11 genes and six introns are unique for Hariotina. 11 open reading frames are identified among these introns. The synteny between Hariotina and Acutodesmus cpDNAs is in general identical, while within Sphaeropleales order, high variability in cpDNA architecture is indicated by general high DCJ distances. Ankyra judayi exhibits the greatest dissimilarity in gene synteny to the others and share some unique gene clusters with Treubaria triappendiculata. The phylogenomic analyses show that A. judayi is clustered with Treubariaceae species and sister to Chlorophyceae incertae sedis and other Sphaeropleales species. The monophyly of Sphaeropleales is rejected.
