The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Ficus concinna (Moraceae) from Sichuan province

Ficus concinna is an important contributor to tropical forest biodiversity. Here, we provide the first report of the complete F. concinna chloroplast genome, thereby providing a basis for subsequent phylogenetic analyses of the Moraceae family. The final assembled chloroplast genome was 160,331 bp in size and included a 20,018 bp long small single-copy (SSC) region, an 88,541 bp long large single-copy (LSC) region, and two 25,886 bp inverted repeats (IRs). The total content of GC for this chloroplast genome was 42.6%, with respective frequencies of 33.6%, 35.9%, and 28.9% in the SSC, LSC, and IR regions, accordingly. Overall, the chloroplast genome was found to encode 131 genes, comprising 37 tRNAs, 86 protein-coding genes, and 8 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analyses revealed a close relationship between F. concinna and Ficus altissima, consistent with prior research results. Together, these data provide valuable insights regarding the evolution and conserved genetic features of F. concinna.
