Complete plastid genome of Dendrocalamus brandisii (Poaceae, Bambusoideae)

Abstract

Dendrocalamus brandisii is high bamboo with branches several, dominant branches well developed. In this study, the complete plastid genome of D. brandisii was assembled and annotated. The total plastid genome was 139,423 bp in length, consisting a large single-copy region (LSC) of 82,956 bp, a small single-copy region (SSC) of 12,879 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats (IR) regions of 21,794 bp. The complete chloroplast genome contains 132 genes, including 39 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and 85 protein-coding genes. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that D. brandisii sister to D. latiflorus.
