Abstract

Green plants (Viridiplantae) include around 450,000-500,000 species1,2 of great diversity and have important roles in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Here, as part of the One Thousand Plant Transcriptomes Initiative, we sequenced the vegetative transcriptomes of 1,124 species that span the diversity of plants in a broad sense (Archaeplastida), including green plants (Viridiplantae), glaucophytes (Glaucophyta) and red algae (Rhodophyta). Our analysis provides a robust phylogenomic framework for examining the evolution of green plants. Most inferred species relationships are well supported across multiple species tree and supermatrix analyses, but discordance among plastid and nuclear gene trees at a few important nodes highlights the complexity of plant genome evolution, including polyploidy, periods of rapid speciation, and extinction. Incomplete sorting of ancestral variation, polyploidization and massive expansions of gene families punctuate the evolutionary history of green plants. Notably, we find that large expansions of gene families preceded the origins of green plants, land plants and vascular plants, whereas whole-genome duplications are inferred to have occurred repeatedly throughout the evolution of flowering plants and ferns. The increasing availability of high-quality plant genome sequences and advances in functional genomics are enabling research on genome evolution across the green tree of life.

Abstract

Green plants (Viridiplantae) include around 450,000–500,000 species of great diversity and have important roles in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Here, as part of the One Thousand Plant Transcriptomes Initiative, we sequenced the vegetative transcriptomes of 1,124 species that span the diversity of plants in a broad sense (Archaeplastida), including green plants (Viridiplantae), glaucophytes (Glaucophyta) and red algae (Rhodophyta). Our analysis provides a robust phylogenomic framework for examining the evolution of green plants. Most inferred species relationships are well supported across multiple species tree and supermatrix analyses, but discordance among plastid and nuclear gene trees at a few important nodes highlights the complexity of plant genome evolution, including polyploidy, periods of rapid speciation, and extinction. Incomplete sorting of ancestral variation, polyploidization and massive expansions of gene families punctuate the evolutionary history of green plants. Notably, we find that large expansions of gene families preceded the origins of green plants, land plants and vascular plants, whereas whole-genome duplications are inferred to have occurred repeatedly throughout the evolution of flowering plants and ferns. The increasing availability of high-quality plant genome sequences and advances in functional genomics are enabling research on genome evolution across the green tree of life.

16. Chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal cistron phylogenomics in a group of closely related sections in Salviasubg. Calosphace

Abstract

Sage phylogenies have not resolved many shallow level clades within problematic Salviasubgenus Calosphace, hindered by the difficulty in finding sufficiently variable loci. We assembled fifteen chloroplast genomes and nuclear ribosomal cistrons from non-target reads of a nuclear hybrid enrichment project to assess the phylogenetic utility for a closely related group of mainly Mexican sections. Chloroplast synteny is confirmed with 10 Lamiales chloroplasts, supporting a map to reference assembly. Salvia miltiorrhizaBunge chloroplast was used as a reference for assemblies, averaging 25,970 reads with mean depth of 20.71 reads; genomes ranged from 141,451 to 150,339 bp. The S. carduaceaBenth. nuclear ribosomal cistron (18S, ITS1, 5.8S, ITS2 and 26S) was used as a reference for assembly, averaging 66,387 reads and mean depth of 1508 reads. We evaluated several partitioning schemes for plastid, plastid and nrDNA and reduced sampling, to assess whether these would render the same phylogenetic inferences. Maximum likelihood inferences resulted with high bootstrap support and two main clades with interspersed species from Salviasect. Scorodoniae: clade A with species from S.sects. Atrataeand Mitrataeand clade B from S.sects. Sigmoideaeand Uricae. Only S.sect. Uricaeis monophyletic in every analysis supporting its identity, not merged into S.sect. Scorodoniae; S.sect. Sigmoideaeis inferred monophyletic only if the ribosomal DNA sequences are included. Greater resolution and higher branch support are obtained with the entire plastome and nrDNA, rather than subsampling highly variable regions; thus we recommend this approach with expanded taxon sampling, coupled with a morphological review to better solve sectional circumscription in closely related S.subgenus Calosphacespecies.

The increasing availability of high-quality plant genome sequences and advances in functional genomics are enabling research on genome evolution across the green tree of life.
