Abstract:
Lindera megaphylla (Lauraceae) is an ecologically important and dominant evergreen broad-leaf tree species in the warm-temperate and subtropical zone of China. In this study, we sequenced and assembled two complete genomes of L. megaphylla (LM01 and LM02) based on the next-generation sequencing data. The two complete chloroplasts of L. megaphylla are 152,741 bp in length, including two same length inverted repeats of 20,067 and 20,068 bp, a small single copy of 18,882 and 18,914 bp and a large single copy of 93,726 and 93,691 bp for LM01 and LM02 respectively. They all contain 84 protein-coding, 36 tRNA and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast genomes indicates that L. megaphylla is closely related to another Lindera and Litsea species.
