Abstract

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world's fourth most important food crop and essential for global food security. The potato chloroplast genomes, the plastomes, are highly conserved and are largely studied for their maternal lineages. In this study, we assembled the complete circular plastome sequences of nine diploid potato clones, with sizes ranging between 155,296 bp and 155,564 bp. Annotation of these plastomes reveals that they each have 141 genes in a similar order. The computational chloroplast DNA typing reveals three plastid DNA types among the nine plastomes and they are grouped according to these types in the phylogeny.

Keywords: Chloroplast; Solanum; plastome assembly; potato.

Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree constructed using complete plastome sequences of Solanum tuberosum W5281.2 (MT511710), 12625-02 (MT511707), 12120-03 (MT511706), 11379-03 (MT511705), H412-1 (MT511709), DW84-1457 (MT511708), 07506-01 (MT511702), 08675-21 (MT511703), and 10908-06 (MT511704). The plastomes of four reference potato species, S. stenotomum subsp. goniocalyx (MT120855), S. phureja (MT120858), S. curtilobum (MT120866), and S. tuberosum subsp. tuberosum (MT120865) are also included in the phylogeny (Achakkagari et al., 2020). The plastid DNA type of each genome is given in parentheses (S, T or W).
