The complete chloroplast genome of Catalpa fargesii Bur. f. duclouxii (Dode) Gilmour

In this study, we reported and characterized the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Catalpa fargesii Bur. f. duclouxii (Dode) Gilmour. The chloroplast genome was determined to be 158,250 bp in length. It contained large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions of 84,929 bp and 12,663 bp, respectively, which were separated by a pair of 30,329 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions. The genome is predicted to contain 121 genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 35 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 38.1%. A phylogenetic tree reconstructed by 12 chloroplast genomes reveals that C. fargesii is mostly related to Catalpa. ovata and Catalpa. speciosa. This study identified the unique characteristics of the C. fargesii cp genome, which will provide a theoretical basis for species identification and biological research

The complete chloroplast genome of Pinus densata

Here, we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Pinus densata. The complete chloroplast genome is 119,617 bp in length. There were 112 genes in the genome, including 73 protein-coding genes, 35 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. The overall GC was 38.5%, and the base of A, C, G, and T were 30.6, 19.3, 19.2, and 30.9%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that P. densata was relatively closely related to Pinus tabuliformis. These data may providing useful information for the phyletic evolution of P. densata within the Pinaceae family
