Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Yuanjiang wild Ichang papeda (Citrus cavaleriei) in China

摘要

Ichang papeda (Citrus cavaleriei ) is an endemic perennial plant in China. In this study, we assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of Yuanjiang wild Ichang papeda using Illumina Hiseq-2500 sequencing data. The chloroplast genome is constituted of 160,996?bp, containing a 87,634?bp large single-copy region, a 18,762?bp small single-copy region, and a pair of 27,300?bp inverted repeat regions. The chloroplast genome contains 114 unique genes, including 80 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs and 4 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the relationship between the chloroplast gennomes of C. cavaleriei and C . reticulata is the closest, which consistently support their chloroplast relationships.
