Next-generation sequencing yields the complete chloroplast genome of Abies Alba

Abies alba is native to the mountains of Europe and often used as Christmas trees. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of A. alba. The complete chloroplast genome is 121,243 bp in length, comprising a large single copy (LSC) region of 67,034 bp, a small single copy (SSC) regio...

Description
Summary:Abies alba is native to the mountains of Europe and often used as Christmas trees. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of A. alba. The complete chloroplast genome is 121,243 bp in length, comprising a large single copy (LSC) region of 67,034 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 53,681 bp, and two inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb) of 264 bp each. The genome contains 114 genes and they were 68 peptide-encoding genes, 35 tRNA genes, four rRNA genes, six open reading frames, and one pseudogene. Loss of ndh genes and inverted repeat sequences were identified in this genome. The phylogenetic analysis confirms that the Abies species are supported as monophyletic with high bootstrap values.
