The complete chloroplast genome of Salsola abrotanoides (Chenopodiaceae), a desert halophyte shrub in China.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Salsola abrotanoides, one of the dominant plant species of desert vegetation, adapts well to the arid, saline, and alkaline environment in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast sequence and characters of S. abrotanoides based on the Illumina NovaSeq Platform. The chloroplast genome is 151,622 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeated (IR) regions of 23,701 bp, a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,658 bp, and a small single copy (SSC) region of 19,562 bp. And the chloroplast genome sequence encodes 130 genes totally, including 85 mRNA genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. S. abrotanoides is the first species of Genus Salsola and the chloroplast sequence will provide a valuable resource for the phylogenetic studies of Chenopodiaceae.
