Abstract

Carmine radish, which contained a high natural red pigment (red radish pigment), was peculiar produced in Fuling, Chongqing City. Here, the complete nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of carmine radish (Raphanus sativus L.) have been determined with a circular sequence with the lengths of 258,965 bp, comprised of 40 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNA genes, and three ribosomal RNA genes. To demonstrate the evolution of organelles genomes in plants, other plant mitochondrial genomes’ evolution were also selected for analyze. The results showed that carmine radish (Raphanus sativus L.) is related to MS_Gensuke (Raphanus sativus L.) and Black radish (Raphanus sativus L.), as well as related to Brassica nigra and Brassica carinata, comparing with other Brassicaceae species. This study will provide important genetic tools for other Brassicaceae species research and improve yields of economically important plants.

摘要

重庆市Fu陵特产胭脂红萝卜，其中含有较高的天然红色色素（红萝卜色素）。在这里，已经确定了胭脂红萝卜（Raphanus sativus L.）的线粒体（mt）基因组的完整核苷酸序列，其长度为258,965 bp的环状序列，由40个蛋白质编码基因，23个tRNA基因和三个核糖体RNA基因。为了证明植物细胞器基因组的进化，还选择了其他植物线粒体基因组的进化进行分析。结果表明，胭脂红萝卜（Raphanus sativus L.）与MS_Gensuke （Raphanus sativus L.）和黑萝卜（Raphanus sativus L.）有关。与其他芸苔科物种相比，与芸苔黑麦和芸苔属有关。这项研究将为其他十字花科物种的研究提供重要的遗传工具，并提高经济上重要植物的产量。
