Chloroplast genome sequence of Solanum demissum, a wild tuber-bearing species was completed

Abstract

Solanum demissum is a wild tuber-bearing species belonging to Solanaceae family. The complete chloroplast genome of S. demissum was constituted by de novo assembly using a small amount of whole genome sequencing data. The chloroplast genome of S. demissum was circular DNA molecule with a length of 155,558 bp and consisted of 85,999 bp of large single copy, 18,373 bp of small single copy, and 25,593 bp of a pair of inverted repeat regions. A total of 158 genes were annotated including 105 protein-coding genes, 45 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis with 30 Solanaceae species revealed that S. demissum is most closely grouped with S. hougasii and S. stoloniferum.
