Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of the Long Blooming Cultivar Camellia 'Xiari Qixin': Genome Features, Comparative and Phylogenetic Analysis.

ABSTRACT: The camellia flower is a famous woody plant with a long-cultivated history and high ornamental value. It is extensively planted and utilized around the world and owns a massive germplasm resource. Camellia 'Xiari Qixin' belongs to one of the typical cultivars in the four seasons camellia hybrids series. Due to its long flowering period, this kind of cultivar is identified as a precious resource of camellia flowers. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of C. 'Xiari Qixin' was first reported. Its whole chloroplast genome is 157,039 bp in length with an overall GC content of 37.30%, composed of a large single copy region (LSC, 86,674 bp), a small single copy region (SSC, 18,281 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs, 26,042 bp each). A total of 134 ge
