Complete chloroplast genome of Physalis chenopodifolia Lam. (Solanaceae).
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Physalis chenopodifolia is a perennial wild tomatillo with traditional use in central Mexico because of its edible fruits. Due to their agronomic potential and nutraceutical properties, this species is a resource that can be a candidate to plant breeding programs to be included in the Mexican diet. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of P. chenopodifolia. Its full size is 156,888 bp, includes a large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,117 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,451 bp, and two invert repeat (IR) regions of 25,660 bp each. The plastome contains 113 genes, 79 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes and 30 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic hypothesis supports P. chenopodifolia as a member of Physalis genus. Although relationships within the genus have moderated bootstrap support, the utility of the complete plastome sequence to solve infrageneric phylogenetic relationships is confirmed.
