RESUMEN
Nitrogen (N2) is the most important source of mineral N for plant growth, which was mainly transported by nitrate transporters (NRTs). However, little is known about the NRT gene family in potato. In this study, StNRT gene family members were identified in potato. In addition, we performed StNRT subfamily classification, gene structure and distribution analysis, and conserved domain prediction using various bioinformatics tools. Totally, 39 StNRT gene members were identified in potato genome, including 33, 4 and 2 member belong to NRT1, NRT2, and NRT3, respectively. These 39 StNRT genes were randomly distributed on all chromosomes. The collinearity results show that StNRT members in potato are closely related to Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum melongena. For the expression, different members of StNRT play different roles in leaves and roots. Especially under sufficient nitrogen conditions, different members have a clear distribution in different tissues. These results provide valuable information for identifying the members of the StNRT family in potato and could provide functional characterization of StNRT genes in further research.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), a species of the family Solanaceae, is the fourth most important food crop worldwide. Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Favorita is a long oval, smooth, yellowish-skinned potato variety with green and plump leaves. It has a dry matter content of 17.7% and starch content of 12.4-14.01% in the tuber. In order to support more genetic data for the taxonomy of S. tuberosum, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of S. tuberosum L. cv. Favorita was determined using next-generation sequencing. In leaves, the chloroplast genome accounts for 5.17% of the total genome. The entire cp genome was determined to be 155,296 bp in length. It contained large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions of 85,737 and 18,373 bp, respectively, which were separated by a pair of 25,593 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions. The genome contained 132 total genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 37.9%. A phylogenetic tree reconstructed by 60 chloroplast genomes reveals that S. tuberosum L. cv. Favorita is most closely related to S. tuberosum L. cv. Desiree and S. tuberosum L. cv. Atlantic.
RESUMEN
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), a species of the family Solanaceae, is the fourth most important food crop worldwide. Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Shepody is a long, smooth, white-skinned potato cultivar with medium green leaves. It has good specific gravity and boils and bakes well. To support more molecular data for breeding of S. tuberosum, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of S. tuberosum L. cv. Shepody was determined using the next-generation sequencing. In leaves, the chloroplast genome accounts for 3.88% of the total genome. The entire cp genome was determined to be 155,296 bp in length. It contained large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions of 85,737 and 18,373 bp, respectively, which were separated by a pair of 25,593 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions. The genome contained 132 total genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 37.9%. A phylogenetic tree reconstructed by 60 chloroplast genomes reveals that S. tuberosum L. cv. Shepody was closely related to S. tuberosum L. cv. Desiree with bootstrap support values of 100%.
RESUMEN
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), a species of the family Solanaceae, is the fourth most important food crop worldwide. Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Atlantic, a main fried special potato, has a dry matter content of 19%-23% and a starch content of 16.26% in the tuber. In order to support more molecular data for the taxony of S. tuberosum, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of S. tuberosum L. cv. Atlantic was determined using next-generation sequencing. In leaves, the chloroplast genome accounts for 5.49% of the total genome. The entire cp genome was determined to be 155,296 bp in length. It contained large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions of 85,737 and 18,373 bp, respectively, which were separated by a pair of 25,593 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions. The genome contained 132 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 37.9%. A phylogenetic tree reconstructed by 64 chloroplast genomes reveals that S. tuberosum L. cv. Atlantic is most closely related to Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desiree.
