Distylium tsiangii Chun ex Walker is an evergreen tree species endemic to China. It has been classified as critically endangered in the Red List of China Higher Plants. Here, we sequenced, assembled, and analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of D. tsiangii. The plastome is 159,125 bp in length, with a typical quadripartite structure and consisting of a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,220 bp) separated by a large single copy (LSC) region (87,897 bp) and a small single copy (SSC) region (18,788 bp). The overall GC content was 38.00%. A total of 131 genes were annotated, including 37 tRNA genes, 86 protein-coding genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that D. tsiangii was more closely related to Parrotia subaequalis.The squid Uroteuthis chinensis is commercially important fishery species in many coastal regions of Asia. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/cloperastine-fendizoate.html In this study, we described the complete mitochondrial genome of U. chinensis. The genome is 17,353 bp in length, encoding the standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, with circular organization. The overall base composition of the whole mitochondrial genome was A (39.56%), T (31.71%), G (9.05%) and C (19.68%) with an AT bias of 71.27%. The longest protein-coding genes of these species was ND5, whereas the shortest ATP8.Euphorbia milii (Euphorbiaceae) grows as a scrambling shrub with many branches. Here, we report and characterize the complete plastome of E. milii in an effort to provide genomic resources useful for promoting its systematic research. The plastome of E. milii is found to possess a total length of 160,806 bp with the typical quadripartite structure of angiosperms, contains two Inverted Repeats (IRs) of 26,695 bp, a Large Single-Copy (LSC) region of 90,211 bp and a Small Single-Copy (SSC) region of 17,205 bp. The plastome contains 114 genes, consisting of 80 unique protein-coding genes, 30 unique tRNA genes and four unique rRNA genes. The overall A/T content in the plastome of E. milii is of 64.10%. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that E. milii is close to E. tirucalli within Euphorbiaceae in this study. The complete plastome sequence of E. milii will provide a useful resource for the conservation genetics of this species as well as for the phylogenetic studies of Euphorbiaceae.Uncaria rhynchophylla is a vine plant belonging to the family Rubiaceae and has been used as medicine for a long time in China. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of U. rhynchophylla was first reported and characterized. The cp genome was 154,605 bp in length and contains a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 34,165 bp each) separated by a large (84,327 bp) and small (12,966 bp) single-copy regions. A total of 113 unique genes were predicted, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that U. rhynchophylla was closer to Neolamarckia cadamba.Aquilaria sinensis is one of the most important agarwood-producing trees but critically endangered at present. In this study, we produced the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. sinensis via genome survey analysis. The assembled genome is 174,914 base-pairs (bp) in length, with one large single-copy region of 87,361 bp and one small single-copy region of 3347 bp separated by two inverted repeats of 42,103 bp. The genome contains a total of 142 genes, including 96 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNAs, and 38 tRNAs. The phylogenomic tree strongly supports Aquilaria as a monophyly and A. sinensis sister to A. yunnanensis.Manglietia yuyuanensis is an important afforestation and excellent broad-leaved tree species in southern China. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast genome of M. yuyuanensis based on the Illumina sequences, sequence analysis showed the genome was 160,078 bp in length presenting a typical quadripartite structure and contains an inverted repeat region (IR, 26,467 b), a small single-copy (SSC) region, and a large single-copy (LSC) region (18,785 and 88,359 bp, respectively). The overall GC content was 39.27%. The sequence contained 128 unique genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis revealed that M. maudiae was closely related to Manglietia insignis. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that M. yuyuanensis is closely related to Manglietia glaucifolia, with the genus Manglietia.Coregonid fishes are among the most successful groups in the subarctic, boreal, and subalpine fresh waters of the northern hemisphere. Limnetic-benthic sympatric species-pairs from two different evolutionary lineages, the North American lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis species complex), and the European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus species complex), are becoming the subject of close attention to explore the role of natural selection during the ecological speciation. Baikal endemic coregonids, limnetic omul (Coregonus migratorius), and benthic lacustrine whitefish (Coregonus baicalensis) are the only representatives of another unique lineage that has not left the lake since the divergence from the two above. Due to Pleistocene oscillations sympatric limnetic-benthic divergence has been replicated here many times within the same water body over a long geological period in contrast to both Europe and America where sympatric species-pairs are the results of post-glacial secondary-contacts between glacial isolates during the Late Pleistocene on the territory of each continent. Mitochondrial genomes encode genes that are essential for respiration and metabolism. Data on complete mitogenomes of Baikal endemic coregonids provided here will complement ongoing investigations on energy metabolism as the main biological function involved in the divergence between limnetic and benthic whitefish.We determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Squalidus chankanensis tsuchigae (Cypriniformes Cyprinidae). It is 16,603 bp long, with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region, which is 927 bp long, located between tRNApro and tRNAphe. The overall base composition is as follows 29.98% A, 16.86% G, 25.44% T, and 27.72% C, with a slight AT bias. These results provide necessary data for phylogenetic studies on Squalidus species.
