| Abstract/Contents: | "The fine fescue species [Chewings fescue (Festuca rubra ssp. fallax), hard fescue (Festuca brevipila), sheep fescue (Festuca ovina), strong creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra ssp. rubra), and slender creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra ssp. litoralis)] have been shown to perform well in low-input environments in temperate climates. However, due to morphological similarity, species classification of fine fescue species has been challenging. Previous classification of fine fescue species was done through flow cytometry, however, the method is expensive and time consuming. Besides, frequent hybridization events in Poacea species present complications for the use of flow cytometry for species identification. The chloroplast genome has been widely used for several purposes including plant phylogeny determination, species identification, DNA barcoding activities and comparative genomics. Here, we report the first whole chloroplast genome sequence of hard fescue species cultivar 'Beacon'. We also present the chloroplast genomes of slender red fescue cv. 'Shoreline', strong creeping red fescue cv. 'Navigator II', Chewings fescue cv. 'Treazure II', and sheep fescue cv. 'Quatro'. We used the genome sequences to reconstruct the phylogeny tree of the fine fescue species with other species within the Festuca-Lolium complex. Finally, we used a comparative genomics approach to characterize the five fine fescues chloroplast genome in order to further develop molecular markers for species identification." |
