The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Malus halliana (Rosaceae), an important ornamental plant.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Malus halliana is an important ornamental plant resource. Herein, we determined the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of M. halliana using Illumina sequencing data. The whole cp genome is 160,089 bp in size, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IR 52,706 bp), a large single-copy region (LSC 88,189 bp), and a small single-copy region (SSC 19,194 bp). The plastid genome contains 129 genes, 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. In addition, a maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that M. halliana was most closely related to Malus hupehensis. The complete plastome sequence will provide useful genetic information for phylogenetic studies, the resolution of taxonomic discrepancies, and molecular breeding.
