The complete chloroplast genome of Rhizophora stylosa and its phylogenetic implications
Abstract
Rhizophora stylosa is a true mangrove distributed in the Indo-Pacific region. In this study, the whole chloroplast genome of R. stylosa was assembled and annotated. The chloroplast genome was 164,475 bp in length, consisting of a large single copy (LSC) region of 92,582 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 19,243 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,325 bp. It contained 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content was 34.9%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that R. stylosa was sister to Erythroxylum novogranatense.
