Description
Summary:Salsola abrotanoides, one of the dominant plant species of desert vegetation, adapts well to the arid, saline, and alkaline environment in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast sequence and characters of S. abrotanoides based on the Illumina NovaSeq Platform. The chloroplast genome is 151,622 bp in length, containing a pair of inverted repeated (IR) regions of 23,701 bp, a large single copy (LSC) region of 84,658 bp, and a small single copy (SSC) region of 19,562 bp. And the chloroplast genome sequence encodes 130 genes totally, including 85 mRNA genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. S. abrotanoides is the first species of Genus Salsola and the chloroplast sequence will provide a valuable resource for the phylogenetic studies of Chenopodiaceae.
