Assembly and comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Viburnum chinshanense.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Viburnum chinshanense is an endemic species found exclusively in the North-Central and South-Central regions of China. This species is a lush garden ornamental tree and is extensively utilized for vegetation restoration in rocky desertification areas.

Results

In this study, we obtained 13.96 Gb of Oxford Nanopore data for the whole genome, and subsequently, by combining Illumina short-reads, we successfully assembled the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the V. chinshanense using a hybrid assembly strategy. The assembled genome can be described as a circular genome. The total length of the V. chinshanense mitogenome measures 643,971 bp, with a GC content of 46.18%. Our annotation efforts have revealed a total of 39 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 28 tRNA
