The complete plastid gentome of Dendrocalamus yunnanicus (Poaceae, Bambuseae)

Abstract

Dendrocalamus is an economically important woody bamboo genus. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of D. yunnanicus was determined from Illumina HiSeq pair-end sequencing data. The genome was 139,432 bp in length, including a large single-copy region (LSC) of 82,964 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 12,878 bp, and two inverted repeat regions (IR) of 21,795 bp. There were 132 genes predicted, containing 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 39 transfer RNA genes.
