The complete chloroplast genome of Dendrobium harveyanum (Orchidaceae)

Abstract

Dendrobium harveyanum is an endangered species of Orchidaceae. Here we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence and the cp genome features of D. harveyanum. The complete cp genome sequence of D. harveyanum is 157,292 bp in length and presented a typical quadripartite structure including one large single-copy region (LSC, 86,583 bp), one small single-copy region (SSC, 19,449 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 25,630 bp each). The cp genome encoded 138 genes, of which 120 were unique genes. The phylogenetic relationships show that D. harveyanum is closely related to other species in Dendrobium.

The complete chloroplast genome of Dendrobium wattii (Orchidaceae)

“…The cp genome encodes 133 genes, consisting of 131 unique genes (79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs, and 4 rRNAs). The gene order and organization of the D. wattii are consistent with those of other species in Dendrobium (Yan et al 2016;Huang et al 2019;Pan et al 2019).…”
