Mitochondrial DNA B Resour. 2021 Jul 15;6(8):2322-2323. doi: 10.1080/23802359.2021.1950063. eCollection 2021.

Abstract

As an important medicinal herb, no complete organelle molecular data has been reported for Tubocapsicum anomalum. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome of Tubocapsicum anomalum Makino was sequenced and assembled. The genome is 155,802 bp in length and contained 124 encoded genes in total, including 75 protein-coding genes, 10 ribosomal RNA genes, and 39 transfer RNA genes. The phylogenomic analysis showed that Tubocapsicum anomalum was closely related to Withania somnifera according the current sampling extent.

Keywords: Tubocapsicum anomalum; chloroplast genome; phylogeny.
