Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of traditional Chinese herb, Solanum japonense Nakai. (Solanaceae).

ABSTRACT: Solanum japonense Nakai. (Solanaceae) is a traditional Chinese medicine and animal fodder in Asian continent. Here, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of S. japonense was determined by the Illumina Hiseq technology. The complete chloroplast genome of S. japonense was 155,415 bp and the GC content was 37.81%. The typical circular quadripartite structure was composed with two inverted repeat (IR) regions with 25,588 bp, a large single-copy (LSC) region (85,931 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (18,344 bp). The chloroplast genome of S. japonense contained 132 unigenes, which contained 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA and 8 rRNA genes and one pseudo-gene. Moreover, 183 SSRs were identified and 65% (119)of them located at LSC region. A Maximum-Likelihood
