The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Tartary Buckwheat Cultivar Miqiao 1(Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertn.)

摘要

Chloroplasts (cp) are indispensable organelles in plant cells that perform photosynthesis amongst other functions, including producing pigments, synthesizing sugars and certain amino acids. The complete chloroplast genome of Tartary Buckwheat Cultivar Miqiao 1 is sequenced in this study. Miqiao 1 is currently the only Tartary Buckwheat variety that can produce the whole nutritive Tartary Buckwheat Rice by hulling. The Miqiao 1 cp genome size is 159,272?bp in length, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. A pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 30,817?bp were disconnected by a large single copy (LSC) of 84,397?bp and a small single copy (SSC) of 13,241?bp. The cp genome with 37.9% GC content contained 113 annotated genes.
