Abstract:
The complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Actinidia setosa (A. setosa) was sequenced and assembled into a circular genome of 156,728 bp length using Illumina paired-end data. The cp genome composed of a pair of 24,090 bp inverted repeat (IR) regions separated by a large single copy region (LSC) of 88,256 bp and a small single copy region (SSC) of 20,292 bp. Additionally, a total of 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes, were identified in the A. setosa cp genome. Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. setosa was evolutionarily close to other two kiwifruits A. deliciosa and A. chinensis.
