Mitochondrial DNA B Resour. 2020 Jan 21;5(1):738-739. doi: 10.1080/23802359.2020.1715286.

Abstract

In this study, we firstly reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of the Mangifera sylvatica from Nanning, Guangxi province, China. The complete wild mango cp genome size is 158063 bp with a typical small single-copy region (SSC, 18340 bp), a large single-copy region (LSC, 87008 bp) and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 26379 bp and 26379 bp respectively). Out of 112 unique annotated genes in mango cp genome, 78 found to be protein coding, 30 to be tRNA and 4 rRNA genes. Besides, we found 51 microsatellite sequences (SSRs) in the cp genome. Sequence alignment and ML analysis of 29 full plastome data revealed M. sylvatica shares the closest relationship with cultivated mango (M. indica) and form a sister group with Rhus chinensis within Anacardiaceae.
