Abstract

A physical map of black pine (Pinus thunbergii) chloroplast DNA (120 kb) was constructed and two separate portions of its nucleotide sequence were determined. One portion contains trnQ-UUG, ORF510, ORF83, trnK-UUU (ORF515 in the trnK intron), ORF22, psbA, trnI-CAU (on the opposing strand) and trnH-GUG, in that order. Sequence analysis of another portion revealed the presence of a 495 bp inverted repeat containing trnI-CAU and the 3' end of psbA but lacking rRNA genes. The position of trnI-CAU is unique because most chloroplast DNAs have no gene between psbA and trnH (trnI-CAU is usually located further downstream). Black pine chloroplast DNA lacks rps16, which has been found between trnQ and trnK in angiosperm chloroplast DNAs, but possesses ORF510 instead. This ORF is highly homologous to ORF513 found in the corresponding region of liverwort chloroplast DNA and ORF563 located downstream from trnT in Chlamydomonas moewusii chloroplast DNA. A possible pathway for the evolution of black pine chloroplast DNA is discussed.
