The complete chloroplast genome of Euphorbia prostrata (Euphorbiaceae).

ABSTRACT: Euphorbia prostrata Aiton 1789, an annual herb, is native to tropical and subtropical Americas and was introduced into many parts of the Old-World including Korea. We determined the genomic characteristics of the complete chloroplast genome of E. prostrata with a de novo assembly strategy. The complete chloroplast genome was 162,858 bp long, and harbored 86 protein coding, 37 tRNA and 8 rRNA. The genome showed the typical quadripartite structure consisting of a large single copy (LSC) (90,580 bp), a small single copy (SSC) (18,570 bp) and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) (26,854 bp). The phylogenetic tree inferred from chloroplast genomes of 25 taxa, which belong to Euphorbiaceae indicated that the Euphorbia is a monophyletic group and E. prostrata is clo
