Complete chloroplast genome sequences of an important horticultural orchid: Paphiopedilum hirsutissimum (Orchidaceae)
Paphiopedilum hirsutissimum is an important ornamental orchid species with great horticultural value. The whole chloroplast genome was assembled using genome skimming data. The total length of the cp genome is 154,569 bp, comprising a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85198 bp, a small single-copy (...

| Summary: | Paphiopedilum hirsutissimum is an important ornamental orchid species with great horticultural value. The whole chloroplast genome was assembled using genome skimming data. The total length of the cp genome is 154,569 bp, comprising a large single-copy (LSC) region of 85198 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 683 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 34,344 bp each. The chloroplast genome consists of 125 functional genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 38 tRNA genes. The systematic position of the species was also inferred based on plastid phylogenomic analyses. |
