The genus Zingiber of the Zingiberaceae is distributed in tropical, subtropical, and Far East Asia. This contains about 100-150 species, with many species valued as important agricultural, medicinal horticultural resources. However, genomic resources suitable molecular markers for identification are currently sparse.We conducted comparative genomics phylogenetic analyses on species. chloroplast genome (size range 162,507-163,711 bp) possess typical quadripartite structures that consist a large single copy (LSC, 86,986-88,200 bp), small (SSC, 15,498-15,891 pair inverted repeats (IRs, 29,765-29,934 bp). genomes contain 113 unique genes, including 79 protein coding 30 tRNA 4 rRNA genes. structures, gene contents, amino acid frequencies, codon usage patterns, RNA editing sites, simple sequence long conservative Zingiber. analysis divergence indicates following genes undergo positive selection (ccsA, ndhA, ndhB, petD, psbA, psbB, psbC, rbcL, rpl12, rpl20, rpl23, rpl33, rpoC2, rps7, rps12 ycf3). Eight highly variable regions identified seven intergenic (petA-pabJ, rbcL-accD, rpl32-trnL-UAG, rps16-trnQ-UUG, trnC-GCA-psbM, psbC-trnS-UGA ndhF-rpl32) one genic (ycf1). revealed sect. was sister to Cryptanthium rather than Pleuranthesis.This study reports 14 complete Overall, this provided solid backbone phylogeny polymorphisms we have uncovered sequencing offer rare possibility (for Zingiber) generation DNA markers.

SUMMARY Serine carboxypeptidase‐like acyltransferases (SCPL‐ATs) play a vital role in the diversification of plant metabolites. Galloylated flavan‐3‐ols highly accumulate tea ( Camellia sinensis ), grape Vitis vinifera and persimmon Diospyros kaki ). To date, biosynthetic mechanism these compounds remains unknown. Herein, we report that two SCPL‐AT paralogs are involved galloylation flavan‐3‐ols: CsSCPL4, which contains conserved catalytic triad S‐D‐H, CsSCPL5, has alternative T‐D‐Y. Integrated data from transgenic plants, recombinant enzymes, gene mutations showed CsSCPL4 is acyltransferase, while CsSCPL5 non‐catalytic companion paralog (NCCP). Co‐expression likely responsible for galloylation. Furthermore, pull‐down co‐immunoprecipitation assays interact, increasing protein stability promoting post‐translational processing. Moreover, phylogenetic analyses revealed their homologs co‐exist galloylated flavan‐3‐ol‐ or hydrolyzable tannin‐rich species. Enzymatic further necessity co‐expression those acyltransferase activity. Evolution analysis residues may have taken place about 10 million years ago. These findings show SCPL‐ATs NCCPs contributes to acylation kingdom.
