Characterization and comparative analysis of the complete chloroplast genome sequence from Prunus avium 'Summit'.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sweet cherry (Prunus avium) is one of the most popular of the temperate fruits. Previous studies have demonstrated that there were several haplotypes in the chloroplast genome of sweet cherry cultivars. However, none of chloroplast genome of a sweet cherry cultivar were yet released, and the phylogenetic relationships among Prunus based on chloroplast genome data were unclear.

Methods

In this study, we assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of a sweet cherry cultivar P. avium 'Summit' from high-throughput sequencing data. Gene Ontology (GO) terms were assigned to classify the function of the annotated genes. Maximum likelihood (ML) trees were constructed to reveal the phylogenetic relationships within Prunus species, us
