The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Horsfieldia amygdalina (Myristicaceae).

ABSTRACT: Horsfieldia amygdalina is a member of Myristicaceae. The H. amygdalina chloroplast genome is found to be 155,683?bp in length and has a base composition of A (29.99%), G (19.32%), C (19.92%), and T (30.77%). The genome contained two short inverted repeat (IRa and IRb) regions (37,754?bp) which were separated by a large single copy (LSC) region (86,931?bp) and a small single copy (SSC) region (30,998?bp). The genome encodes 121 unique genes, including 86 protein-coding genes, 27 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Further, complete chloroplast sequence of H. amygdalina was aligned together with Horsfieldia pandurifolia, Myristica yunnanensis and other Magnoliales and basal angiosperms species which have reported the complete chloroplast sequence. This complete chloroplast genome will provide valuable information for the development of DNA markers for future species resource development and phylogenetic analysis of H. amygdalina.
