Characterization of the Chloroplast Genome of Argyranthemum frutescens and a Comparison with Other Species in Anthemideae.

ABSTRACT: Argyranthemum frutescens, which belongs to the Anthemideae (Asteraceae), is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of A. frutescens was obtained based on the sequences generated by Illumina HiSeq. The chloroplast genome of A. frutescens was 149,626 base pairs (bp) in length, containing a pair of inverted repeats (IR, 24,510 bp) regions separated by a small single-copy (SSC, 18,352 bp) sequence and a large single-copy (LSC, 82,254 bp) sequence. The genome contained 132 genes, consisting of 85 coding DNA sequences, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes, with nineteen genes duplicated in the IR region. A comparison chloroplast genome analysis among ten species from the tribe of Anthemideae revealed that the chloroplast genome si
