The first mitochondrial genome of Calophyllum soulattri Burm.f.

ABSTRACT: Calophyllum soulattri Burm.f. is traditionally used to treat skin infections and reduce rheumatic pain, yet genetic and genomic studies are still limited. Here, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome of C. soulattri. It is 378,262 bp long with 43.97% GC content, containing 55 genes (30 protein-coding, 5 rRNA, and 20 tRNA). Repeat analysis of the mitochondrial genome revealed 194 SSRs, mostly mononucleotides, and 266 pairs of dispersed repeats ( ≥ 30 bp) that were predominantly palindromic. There were 23 homologous fragments found between the mitochondrial and plastome genomes. We also predicted 345 C-to-U RNA editing sites from 30 protein-coding genes (PCGs) of the C. soulatrii mitochondrial genome. These RNA editing events created the start codon of nad1 and the stop codon of
