The First Complete Chloroplast Genome of Cordia monoica: Structure and Comparative Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Cordia monoica is a member of the Boraginaceae family. This plant is widely distributed in tropical regions and has a great deal of medical value as well as economic importance. In the current study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. monoica was sequenced, assembled, annotated, and reported. This circular chloroplast genome had a size of 148,711 bp, with a quadripartite structure alternating between a pair of repeated inverted regions (26,897-26,901 bp) and a single copy region (77,893 bp). Among the 134 genes encoded by the cp genome, there were 89 protein-coding genes, 37 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. A total of 1387 tandem repeats were detected, with the hexanucleotides class making up 28 percent of the repeats. Cordia monoica
