Abstract:
The complete chloroplast genome of Rosa laevigata has been characterized by reference-based assembly using Illumina paired-end data. The complete cp genome is 156,342 bp in length, containing a large single-copy region of 85,459 bp, a small single-copy region of 18,785 bp, which are separated by a pair of inverted repeat regions of 26,049 bp, a total of 140 genes were predicted from the cp genome, including 87 protein-coding genes, 39 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes . Most genes occur as a single copy, while 19 gene species are duplicated. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that R. laevigata and Rosa roxburghii f. normalis are more closely related to each other than either is to Rosa banksiae var. normalis.
