Codon Bias in Chloroplast Genome of Dendrocalamus strictus
摘要
Abstract
The codon usage bias in the chloroplast genome of Dendrocalamus strictus is analyzed to identify the major factors shaping its codon usage pattern and to determine the optimal codons,thereby providing a molecular basis for taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of the genus Dendrocalamus.The complete chloroplast genome sequence is retrieved from the NCBI database.Following data filtering,codon usage bias is analyzed using CodonW and EMBOSS,while correlation analyzes and visualization of gene feature parameters are performed using SPSS and R.The results reveal that:1)The chloroplast genome of D.strictus contains 50 effective protein-coding genes,with an overall GC content of 39.34%,where GC1(47.72%)>GC2(39.36%)>GC3(30.05%),indicating a strong bias toward A/U-ending codons.The mean values of ENC(50.38),CAI(0.17),CBI(-0.09),and FOP(0.36)suggest low expression levels of chloroplast genes and a weak codon usage bias;2)Neutral plot,ENC-plot,and PR2-plot analyzes collectively indicate that natural selection is the dominant force shaping codon usage bias in the chloroplast genome;3)Eighteen optimal codons(GCA,GCU,GAU,GGU,AAA,GUU,UUA,CCU,CAA,CGA,CGU,AGU,UCC,UCU,ACA,ACU,GUA,GUU)are identified,and 4)Phylogenetic analysis reveals that D.strictus forms a highly supported monophyletic clade with D.latiflorus and D.giganteus,suggesting a close genetic relationship.This indicates that codon usage patterns exhibit significant phylogenetic signal at the genus level.These findings provide new molecular evidence for phylogenetic reconstruction and offer valuable insights for future taxonomic and evolutionary studies of Dendrocalamus species.关键词
