Project description:Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of Keteleeria evelyniana. The genome is 116,940 bp in size, which is comprised of a large single-copy (LSC) region of 74,075 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 40,425 bp, and two short inverted repeat (IR) regions of 1,220 bp. The overall GC content of the plastome was 38.5%. The new sequence comprised 103 unique genes, including 74 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 25 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that K.evelyniana was close to Keteleeria hainanensis and Keteleeria davidiana.
Project description:Keteleeria hainanensis is an endemic species with extremely narrow distribution. In this study, the complete genome of K._hainanensis was sequenced and analyzed. The genome size is 117,366?bp and it contains two short inverted repeat regions of 1,272?bp, which was separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 74,819?bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 40,003?bp. The GC content of this genome was 38.57%. The chloroplast genome contained 103 unique genes, including 74 protein-coding gene, 25 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis base on 11 chloroplast genomes indicated that K. hainanensis is closely related to K. davidiana.
