The Complete Chloroplast Genome Of Reevesia Thyrsoidea (Malvaceae)

Reevesia thyrsoidea Lindl. is an important ornamental plant with horticultural, industrial, and timber usages. In this study, we reported a complete chloroplast genome of R. thyrsoidea, which was quadripartite and 161,786bp in size, including two inverted repeats (25,466bp for each) that separated one large single-copy (90,565bp) and one small single-copy (20,289bp) regions. The chloroplast genome contained 131 unique genes (86 protein-coding, 37 tRNA, and 8 rRNA), and 17 of them were double copies. Phylogenetic analysis using the chloroplast genome data indicated that R. thyrsoidea was sister to the species in the family Malvaceae.
