Chloroplast genome and phylogenetic analyses of Poncirus trifoliata (Rutaceae).

ABSTRACT: Poncirus trifoliata is an important medicinal plant that is used to treat human diseases. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. trifoliata was assembled based on the Illumina sequencing reads. The cp genome of P. trifoliata was 160,260 bp and contained two short inverted repeat regions (27,029 bp) which were separated by a small single copy region (18,760 bp) and a large single copy region (87,442 bp). The cp genome encodes 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA genes and 4 ribosomal RNA genes. The topology of the phylogenetic tree showed that P. trifoliata is closely clustered with genus Citrus.
