The complete plastid genome of Amphicarpaea ferruginea Bentham (Leguminosae), a grass species with development and utilization prospect

Abstract

We are reporting the complete plastid genome of Amphicarpaea ferruginea, a grass species with development and utilization prospect. The A. ferruginea plastome is 152,531 bp long, with two inverted repeat(IR) regions (25,616 bp each) that separate a large single copy (LSC) region (83,364 bp) and a small single copy (SSC) region (17,935 bp). A total of 130 genes were annotated, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 37 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree shows that Amphicarpaea edgeworthii is closely related to Amphicarpaea ferruginea with strong bootstrap support.
