Comparative chloroplast genomes provided insights into the evolution and species identification on the Datureae plants.

ABSTRACT: Generally, chloroplast genomes of angiosperms are always highly conserved but carry a certain number of variation among species. In this study, chloroplast genomes of 13 species from Datureae tribe that are of importance both in ornamental gardening and medicinal usage were studied. In addition, seven chloroplast genomes from Datureae together with two from Solanaceae species retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) were integrated into this study. The chloroplast genomes ranged in size from 154,686 to 155,979 and from 155,497 to 155,919 bp for species of Datura and Brugmansia, respectively. As to Datura and Brugmansia, a total of 128 and 132 genes were identified, in which 83 and 87 protein coding genes were identified, respective
