Abstract:
Trophis caucana, which belongs to Moraceae, is a tree species lived in a humid climate at low and middle altitudes. The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of T. caucana was sequenced and assembled in this study. The cp genome is 161,445 bp in length with comprising two copies of inverted region (IR, 25,894 bp) separated by the large single copy (LSC, 89,633 bp) and small single copy (SSC, 20,024 bp) regions. It encodes 111 unique genes, consisting of 77 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes, with 19 duplicated genes in the IR regions. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that T. caucana is sister to Antiaris toxicaria in Moraceae family.
