Abstract:
The first complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) sequence of Beckmannia syzigachne was determined from Illumina HiSeq pair-end sequencing data in this study. The cpDNA is 136,181 bp in length, contains a large single-copy region (LSC) of 80,345 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 12,810 bp, which were separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IR) regions of 21,513 bp. The genome contains 132 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 39 transfer RNA genes. Further phylogenomic analysis showed that B. syzigachne clustered in a unique clade in the Pooideae subfamily.
