Complete plastome sequence of Hydnocarpus hainanensis Merr (Achariaceae): an endemic 'vulnerable' tree in South China.

ABSTRACT: Hydnocarpus hainanensis Merr. is an evergreen tree with a height of 6-12 m and a diameter at breast height of 50 cm. It is distributed in Guangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, South of Yunnan Province of China. Here, we report and characterize the complete plastid genome sequence of H. hainanensis in an effort to provide genomic resources useful for promoting its conservation and systematics research. The plastome of H. hainanensis is found to possess a total length 163,330 bp with the typical quadripartite structure of angiosperms, containing two inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,870 bp, a large single copy (LSC) region of 91,510 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,080 bp. The plastome contains 111 genes, consisting of 78 unique protein-coding genes (seven of which are dupli
