The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Vitis berlandieri

Abstract

Vitis berlandieri, a species of grape native to the southern North America, is known for good tolerance against soils with a high content of lime and was almost used for rootstock breeding. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of V. berlandieri. The chloroplast genome was 161,028 bp in length, harboring a large single-copy region (89,228 bp) and a small single-copy region (19,028 bp) separated by two inverted repeat regions. A total of 130 unique genes were identified from this genome, including 85 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Chloroplast phylogenetic analysis revealed that V. berlandieri is closely related to V. cordifolia.
