Abstract:
Hippeastrum rutilum (Ker-Gawl.) Herb. is a high-end ornamental flower in the family Amaryllidaceae. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of H. rutilum (Ker-Gawl.) Herb. was determined from Illumina pair-end sequencing data. The sequencing results indicated the complete chloroplast genome sequence of H. rutilum (Ker-Gawl.) Herb. 162,696 base pairs (bp) in length, including one large single-copy region (LSC, 86,933 bp), one small single-copy region (SSC, 5418 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 34,932 bp. Besides, the complete chloroplast genome contained 128 genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA, and 8 rRNA. The phylogenetic analysis suggested that H. rutilum (Ker-Gawl.) Herb. is closely related to H. rutilum. The complete chloroplast genome sequencing results will provide a reference for the further investigation and research of H. rutilum (Ker-Gawl.) Herb.
