The complete chloroplast genome sequences of potato wild relative species, Solanum commersonii.

ABSTRACT: Solanum commersonii Dunal is a well-known wild potato belonging to Solanaceae family and commonly used as materials for somatic hybridization due to various biotic and abiotic stress resistances. The complete chloroplast genome of S. commersonii was constituted by de novo assembly using a small amount of whole genome sequencing data. The chloroplast genome of S. commersonii was 155?525?bp in length, consisted of 86?013?bp of large single copy, 18?366?bp of small single copy region and 25?573?bp of a pair of inverted repeats. A total of 113 genes were annotated including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and four rRNA genes. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis with 14 Solanaceae species revealed that S. commersonii is much closely related to Solanum tuberosum and S. bulbocastanum.
