Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Solanum erianthum: genome structure and genomic resources

Abstract

Solanum erianthum is known for its valuable medicinal properties. In this study, we report its complete chloroplast genome. The chloroplast genome size is 156,343 bp, including a LSC region of 86,855 bp, a SSC region of 18,608 bp and two inverted repeats (IR). The complete chloroplast genome includes a total of 128 unique genes with 83 protein-coding sequences, 37 tRNA and 8 rRNA genes. The results showed that S. erianthum was the most closely related to S. violaceum.
