The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Ficus sarmentosa (Moraceae, Rosales), a widely distributed fig tree in East Asia

Ficus sarmentosa is a common climbing fig tree in East Asia in Moraceae, and its particular geographical distributed pattern and on-going radiation evolution make it significant to explore evolutionary history and biogeography of Ficus. In this work, the first complete chloroplast genome of F. sarme...

Description
Summary:Ficus sarmentosa is a common climbing fig tree in East Asia in Moraceae, and its particular geographical distributed pattern and on-going radiation evolution make it significant to explore evolutionary history and biogeography of Ficus. In this work, the first complete chloroplast genome of F. sarmentosa was reported using Illumina NovaSeq high-throughput sequencing data. Totally, the whole chloroplast genome of F. sarmentosa is 160,183 bp in length, which includes large single-copy region of 88,307 bp, small single-copy region of 20,080 bp, and two pairs of inverted repeat regions of 25,898 bp. In addition, GC content and microsatellite makers of the genome were explored. Lastly, phylogenetic analysis demonstrated the closest relationship between F. sarmentosa and F. pumila.
