The complete nucleotide sequence of Viburnum odoratissimum chloroplast genome

Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) Viburnum odoratissimumis sequenced and assembled from the whole genome data. The cpDNA of V. odoratissimum is 158,744bp in lengthwith the overall GC content of 38.1%. It consists of a pair of inverted repeats (IRa and IRb, 26,494bp) which separate a large single copy (LCS, 87,348 bp) and small single copy (SSC,18,408 bp). The complete chloroplast genome contains 129 genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes and 37 tRNA genes. A phylogenetic tree of DNA sequences of barcoding regions, including rbcL, matK, psbA-trnHfrom 8 species of the Genus Viburnum shows that V. odoratissimum is closely related to V. furcatum and V. burejaeticum.
