The whole genome assembly and evolution analyze of carmine radish () Mitochondrion.

Carmine radish, which contained a high natural red pigment (red radish pigment), was peculiar produced in Fuling, Chongqing City. Here, the complete nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of carmine radish () have been determined with a circular sequence with the lengths of 258,965 bp, comprised of 40 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNA genes, and three ribosomal RNA genes. To demonstrate the evolution of organelles genomes in plants, other plant mitochondrial genomes' evolution were also selected for analyze. The results showed that carmine radish is related to MS_Gensuke and Black radish , as well as related to Brassica nigra and Brassica carinata, comparing with other Brassicaceae species. This study will provide important genetic tools for other Brassicaceae species research and improve yields of economically important plants.
