Abstract
Gastrodia elata Blume, a fully mycoheterotrophic perennial plant of the family Orchidaceae, is a traditional Chinese herb with medicinal and edible value. Interestingly, G. elata requires symbiotic relationships with Mycena and Armillaria strains for seed germination and plant growth, respectively. However, there is no comprehensive summary of the symbiotic mechanism between fungi and G. elata. Here, the colonization and digestion of hyphae, the bidirectional exchange of nutrients, the adaptation of fungi and G. elata to symbiosis, and the role of microorganisms and secondary metabolites in the symbiotic relationship between fungi and G. elata are summarized. We comprehensively and deeply analyzed the mechanism of symbiosis between G. elata and fungi from three perspectives: morphology, nutrition, and molecules. The aim of this review was to enrich the understanding of the mutualistic symbiosis mechanisms between plants and fungi and lay a theoretical foundation for the ecological cultivation of G. elata.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Galeola lindleyana is a mycoheterotrophic orchid belonging to the tribe Vanilleae within the subfamily Vanilloideae. METHODS In this study, the G. lindleyana plastome was assembled and annotated, and compared with other Vanilleae orchids, revealing the evolutionary variations between the photoautotrophic and mycoheterotrophic plastomes. RESULTS The G. lindleyana plastome was found to include 32 protein-coding genes, 16 tRNA genes and four ribosomal RNA genes, including 11 pseudogenes. Almost all of the genes encoding photosynthesis have been lost physically or functionally, with the exception of six genes encoding ATP synthase and psaJ in photosystem I. The length of the G. lindleyana plastome has decreased to 100,749 bp, while still retaining its typical quadripartite structure. Compared with the photoautotrophic Vanilloideae plastomes, the inverted repeat (IR) regions and the large single copy (LSC) region of the mycoheterotrophic orchid's plastome have contracted, while the small single copy (SSC) region has expanded significantly. Moreover, the difference in length between the two ndhB genes was found to be 682 bp, with one of them spanning the IRb/SSC boundary. The Vanilloideae plastomes were varied in their structural organization, gene arrangement, and gene content. Even the Cyrtosia septentrionalis plastome which was found to be closest in length to the G. lindleyana plastome, differed in terms of its gene arrangement and gene content. In the LSC region, the psbA, psbK, atpA and psaB retained in the G. lindleyana plastome were missing in the C. septentrionalis plastome, while, the matK, rps16, and atpF were incomplete in the C. septentrionalis plastome, yet still complete in that of the G. lindleyana. Lastly, compared with the G. lindleyana plastome, a 15 kb region located in the SSC area between ndhB-rrn16S was found to be inverted in the C. septentrionalis plastome. These changes in gene content, gene arrangment and gene structure shed light on the polyphyletic evolution of photoautotrophic orchid plastomes to mycoheterotrophic orchid plastomes. DISCUSSION Thus, this study's decoding of the mycoheterotrophic G. lindleyana plastome provides valuable resource data for future research and conservation of endangered orchids.

Abstract
Gastrodin, the major effective ingredient in Tianma (Gastrodia elata), is a p-hydroxybenzoic acid derivative with various activities. Gastrodin has been widely investigated for food and medical applications. The last biosynthetic step for gastrodin is UDP-glycosyltransferase (UGT)-mediated glycosylation with UDP-glucose (UDPG) as glycosyl donor. In this study, we performed a one-pot reaction both in vitro and in vivo to synthesize gastrodin from p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (pHBA) by coupling UDP-glucosyltransferase from Indigofera tinctoria (itUGT2) to sucrose synthase from Glycine max (GmSuSy) for regeneration of UDPG. The in vitro results showed that itUGT2 transferred a glucosyl group to pHBA to generate gastrodin. After 37 UDPG regeneration cycles with 2.5% (molar ratio) UDP, the pHBA conversion reached 93% at 8 h. Furthermore, a recombinant strain with itUGT2 and GmSuSy genes was constructed. Through optimizing the incubation conditions, a 95% pHBA conversion rate (220 mg/L gastrodin titer) was achieved in vivo without addition of UDPG, which was 2.6-fold higher than that without GmSuSy. This in situ system for gastrodin biosynthesis provides a highly efficient strategy for both in vitro gastrodin synthesis and in vivo biosynthesis of gastrodin in E. coli with UDPG regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cactus family (Cactaceae) has been reported to have evolved a minimal photosynthetic plastome size, with the loss of inverted-repeat (IR) regions and NDH gene suites. However, there are very limited genomic data on the family, especially Cereoideae, the largest subfamily of cacti. RESULTS In the present study, we assembled and annotated 35 plastomes, 33 of which were representatives of Cereoideae, alongside 2 previously published plastomes. We analyzed the organelle genomes of 35 genera in the subfamily. These plastomes have variations rarely observed in those of other angiosperms, including size differences (with ~ 30 kb between the shortest and longest), dramatic dynamic changes in IR boundaries, frequent plastome inversions, and rearrangements. These results suggested that cacti have the most complex plastome evolution among angiosperms. CONCLUSION These results provide unique insight into the dynamic evolutionary history of Cereoideae plastomes and refine current knowledge of the relationships within the subfamily.

Abstract
The plant family Balanophoraceae consists entirely of species that have lost the ability to photosynthesize. Instead, they obtain nutrients by parasitizing other plants. Recent studies have revealed that plastid genomes of Balanophoraceae exhibit a number of interesting features, one of the most prominent of those being a highly elevated AT content of nearly 90%. Additionally, the nucleotide substitution rate in the plastid genomes of Balanophoraceae is an order of magnitude greater than that of their photosynthetic relatives without signs of relaxed selection. Currently, there are no definitive explanations for these features. Given these unusual features, we hypothesised that the nuclear genomes of Balanophoraceae may also provide valuable information in regard to understanding the evolution of non-photosynthetic plants. To gain insight into these genomes, in the present study we analysed the transcriptomes of two Balanophoraceae species (Rhopalocnemis phalloides and Balanophora fungosa) and compared them to the transcriptomes of their close photosynthetic relatives (Daenikera sp., Dendropemon caribaeus, and Malania oleifera). Our analysis revealed that the AT content of the nuclear genes of Balanophoraceae did not markedly differ from that of the photosynthetic relatives. The nucleotide substitution rate in the genes of Balanophoraceae is, for an unknown reason, several-fold larger than in the genes of photosynthetic Santalales; however, the negative selection in Balanophoraceae is likely stronger. We observed an extensive loss of photosynthesis-related genes in the Balanophoraceae family members. Additionally, we did not observe transcripts of several genes whose products function in plastid genome repair. This implies their loss or very low expression, which may explain the increased nucleotide substitution rate and AT content of the plastid genomes.

Abstract
Phalaenopsis zhejiangensis is a rare and endangered plant species with extremely small populations. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. zhejiangensis was assembled, its structural organization was described and comparative genomic analyses was carried out. The cp genome of P. zhejiangensis is 143,547 bp in length, with a GC content of 37.2%, which includes a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,464 bp separated by a small single-copy region of 10,764 bp and a large single-copy region of 83,856 bp. The cp genome contains 126 genes, consisting of 80 protein-coding genes, 38 transfer RNAs, and eight ribosomal RNAs. Six protein-coding genes, including ψndhB (two copies), ψndhD, ψndhG, ψndhK, and ψndhI, are identified as pseudogenes. Another six ndh genes, ndhA, ndhC, ndhE, ndhF, ndhH, and ndhJ, are missing from the plastid genome. A total of 41 cp simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were identified, including 40 mono-nucleotides and one di-nucleotides. Phylogenic analysis revealed P. zhejiangensis was nested inside the Phalaenopsis species and sister to P. wilsonii. The assembly and analysis of P. zhejiangensis cp genome will provide essential data for further study of taxonomy and systematics of Orchidaceae.

Abstract
Background DNA markers improved the productivity and accuracy of classical plant breeding by means of marker-assisted selection (MAS). The enormous number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping read for different plant species have given a plenitude of molecular marker-gene associations. Main body of the abstract In this review, we have discussed the positive aspects of molecular marker-assisted selection and its precise applications in plant breeding programmes. Molecular marker-assisted selection has considerably shortened the time for new crop varieties to be brought to the market. To explore the information about DNA markers, many reviews have been published in the last few decades; all these reviews were intended by plant breeders to obtain information on molecular genetics. In this review, we intended to be a synopsis of recent developments of DNA markers and their application in plant breeding programmes and devoted to early breeders with little or no knowledge about the DNA markers. The progress made in molecular plant breeding, plant genetics, genomics selection, and editing of genome contributed to the comprehensive understanding of DNA markers and provides several proofs on the genetic diversity available in crop plants and greatly complemented plant breeding devices. Short conclusion MAS has revolutionized the process of plant breeding with acceleration and accuracy, which is continuously empowering plant breeders around the world.

Abstract
GATA transcription factors (TFs) are widespread eukaryotic regulators whose DNA-binding domain is a class IV zinc finger motif (CX2CX17-20CX2C) followed by a basic region. Due to the low cost of genome sequencing, multiple strains of specific species have been sequenced: e.g., number of plant genomes in the Plant Genome Database (http://www.plantgenome.info/) is 2,174 originated from 713 plant species. Thus, we investigated GATA TFs of 19 Arabidopsis thaliana genome-widely to understand intraspecific features of Arabidopsis GATA TFs with the pipeline of GATA database (http://gata.genefamily.info/). Numbers of GATA genes and GATA TFs of each A. thaliana genome range from 29 to 30 and from 39 to 42, respectively. Four cases of different pattern of alternative splicing forms of GATA genes among 19 A. thaliana genomes are identified. 22 of 2,195 amino acids (1.002%) from the alignment of GATA domain amino acid sequences display variations across 19 ecotype genomes. In addition, maximally four different amino acid sequences per each GATA domain identified in this study indicate that these position-specific amino acid variations may invoke intraspecific functional variations. Among 15 functionally characterized GATA genes, only five GATA genes display variations of amino acids across ecotypes of A. thaliana, implying variations of their biological roles across natural isolates of A. thaliana. PCA results from 28 characteristics of GATA genes display the four groups, same to those defined by the number of GATA genes. Topologies of bootstrapped phylogenetic trees of Arabidopsis chloroplasts and common GATA genes are mostly incongruent. Moreover, no relationship between geographical distribution and their phylogenetic relationships was found. Our results present that intraspecific variations of GATA TFs in A. thaliana are conserved and evolutionarily neutral along with 19 ecotypes, which is congruent to the fact that GATA TFs are one of the main regulators for controlling essential mechanisms, such as seed germination and hypocotyl elongation.

Abstract
Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. is a model organism of plant molecular biology. More than 1,700 whole genome sequences have been sequenced, but no Korean isolate genomes have been sequenced thus far despite the fact that many A. thaliana isolated in Japan and China have been sequenced. To understand the genetic background of Korean natural A. thaliana (named as 180404IB4), we presented its complete chloroplast genome, which is 154,464 bp long and has four subregions: 85,164 bp of large single copy (LSC) and 17,781 bp of small single copy (SSC) regions are separated by 26,257 bp of inverted repeat (IRs) regions including 130 genes (85 protein-coding genes, eight rRNAs, and 37 tRNAs). Fifty single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 14 insertion and deletions (INDELs) are identified between 180404IB4 and Col0. In addition, 101 SSRs and 42 extendedSSRs were identified on the Korean A. thaliana chloroplast genome, indicating a similar number of SSRs on the rest five chloroplast genomes with a preference of sequence variations toward the SSR region. A nucleotide diversity analysis revealed two highly variable regions on A. thaliana chloroplast genomes. Phylogenetic trees with three more chloroplast genomes of East Asian natural isolates show that Korean and Chinese natural isolates are clustered together, whereas two Japanese isolates are not clustered, suggesting the need for additional investigations of the chloroplast genomes of East Asian isolates.

Abstract
Cervus canadensis nannodes (Merriam, 1905) is one of the subspecies of elk distributed only in California, USA. We completed the first mitogenome of C. canadensis nannodes. Its length is 16,428 bp, which is in middle among 24 available Cervus mitogenomes. It contains 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs). Phylogenetic trees show that C. c. nannodes was clustered with some subspecies of C. elaphus. Number of inter-subspecific variations between C. c. nannodes and C. e. alxaicus are relatively small in comparison to intraspecific variations of insect and fish mitogenomes and plant chloroplast genomes.

Abstract
The complete chloroplast genome of Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb. isolated in Korea is 155,125 bp long (GC ratio is 36.9%) and has four subregions: 84,458 bp of large single copy (34.9%) and 18,737 bp of small single copy (30.4%) regions are separated by 25,965 bp of inverted repeat (42.6%) regions including 129 genes (84 protein-coding genes, eight rRNAs, and 37 tRNAs). 258 SNPs and 542 INDELs were identified as intraspecific variations against the partial genome (KY419942). Phylogenetic trees show that our chloroplast genome was clustered with the previous A. pilosa chloroplast genome.
