Ficus concinna
is an important contributor to tropical forest biodiversity. Here, we provide the first report of the complete
F. concinna
chloroplast genome, thereby providing a basis for subsequent phylogenetic analyses of the
Moraceae
family. The final assembled chloroplast genome was 160,331 bp in size and included a 20,018 bp long small single-copy (SSC) region, an 88,541 bp long large single-copy (LSC) region, and two 25,886 bp inverted repeats (IRs). The total content of GC for this chloroplast genome was 42.6%, with respective frequencies of 33.6%, 35.9%, and 28.9% in the SSC, LSC, and IR regions, accordingly. Overall, the chloroplast genome was found to encode 131 genes, comprising 37 tRNAs, 86 protein-coding genes, and 8 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analyses revealed a close relationship between
F. concinna
and
Ficus altissima
, consistent with prior research results. Together, these data provide valuable insights regarding the evolution and conserved genetic features of
F. concinna
.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
