Chloroplast genome of Calamus tetradactylus revealed rattan phylogeny.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Calamus tetradactylus, a species primarily distributed in Vietnam, Laos, and southern China, is highly valued for its utilization as a small-diameter rattan material. While its physical and mechanical properties have been extensively studied, the genomic characteristics of C. tetradactylus remain largely unexplored.

Results

To gain a better understanding of its chloroplast genomic features and evolutionary relationships, we conducted sequencing and assembly of the chloroplast genome of C. tetradactylus. The complete chloroplast genome exhibited the typical highly conserved quartile structure, with specific variable regions identified in the single-copy region (like psbF-psbE, π = 0.10327, ndhF-rpl32, π = 0.10195), as well as genes such as trnT-GGU (π = 0.05764) an
