The complete chloroplast genome sequence of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) and phylogenetic analysis

Abstract

Red raspberries, Rubus idaeus L. 1753 are famous fruits which possess high value bioactive compounds. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of R. idaeus, it displayed a typical quadripartite structure with 155687 bp in length. The genome encodes 127 genes including 79 protein coding genes, 8 rRNA genes and 40 tRNA genes, the overall GC content is 37.2%. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a close relationship between R. idaeus and R. sachalinensis in Section Malaehobatus.
