The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Myristica yunnanensis (Myristicaceae)

Myristica yunnanensis is a member of Myristicaceae. The M. yunnanensis chloroplast genome is found to be 155,923 bp in length and has a base composition of A (30.04%), G (19.28%), C (19.91%), and T (30.77%). The genome contained two short inverted repeat (IRa and IRb) regions (48,004 bp) which were...

Description
Summary:Myristica yunnanensis is a member of Myristicaceae. The M. yunnanensis chloroplast genome is found to be 155,923 bp in length and has a base composition of A (30.04%), G (19.28%), C (19.91%), and T (30.77%). The genome contained two short inverted repeat (IRa and IRb) regions (48,004 bp) which were separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region (87,088 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (20,731 bp). The genome encodes 120 unique genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 27 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Further, complete chloroplast sequence of M. yunnanensis was aligned together with Horsfieldia pandurifolia and other Magnoliales and basal angiosperms species which have reported the complete chloroplast sequence. This complete chloroplast genome will provide valuable information for the development of DNA markers for future species resource development and phylogenetic analysis of M. yunnanensis.
