The complete mitochondrial genome of Sporobolus alterniflorus (loisel.) P.M. Peterson & Saarela (Poaceae) and phylogenetic analysis

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sporobolus alterniflorus was a circular molecule of 566,328 bp in length and encoded 64 genes, including 35 protein-coding genes, 24 tRNA genes, and 5 rRNA genes. The most common initiated codon was ATG and the most common termination codon was CAT. The overall A + T content was 55.96%. The phylogenomic analysis revealed that Sporobolus alterniflorus have a closest phylogenetic relationship with Sorghum bicolor.
