The complete chloroplast genome of monotypic fern, Mesopteris tonkinensis (Thelypteridaceae)
Mesopteris tonkinensis is monotypic species in the genus Mesopteris (Thelypteridaceae). We characterized its complete chloroplast genome sequences by Illumina sequencing and de novo assembly. The genome size is 161,380 bp in length with a GC content of 43.6%, containing a large single-copy (LSC) reg...

| Summary: | Mesopteris tonkinensis is monotypic species in the genus Mesopteris (Thelypteridaceae). We characterized its complete chloroplast genome sequences by Illumina sequencing and de novo assembly. The genome size is 161,380 bp in length with a GC content of 43.6%, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,678 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 21,786 bp and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) of 28,458 bp. In total, 131 genes are identified, including 88 protein-coding genes, 34 tRNA genes with absent trnV-UAC, eight rRNA genes and one pseudogene. ML tree revealed that M. tonkinensis and Christella appendiculata were closely related. |
