Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Camptotheca acuminata
2017
The whole chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Camptotheca acuminata has been characterized from Illumina pair-end sequencing. The complete cp genome was 162,382 bp in length, containing a large single copy region (LSC) of 89,493 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 16,540 bp, which were separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 56,648 bp. The genome contained 129 genes, including 83 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes and 8 ribosomal RNA genes (4 rRNA species). The most of gene species occur as a single copy, while 18 gene species occur in double copies. The overall GC content of C. acuminata cp genome is 38%, while the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC and IR regions are 36.2, 32.7 and 42.3%, respectively. Further, phylogenetic analysis suggested that C. acuminata is closely related to the species of Davidia involucrata.
