Abstract:
Vaccinium species have great significance as fruit crops due to their economic and food values. Here we report the chloroplast genome of V. oxycoccos. The chloroplast genome of V. oxycoccos was 177,088 bp in length with a GC content of 36.74%. LSC, SSC, and IR regions were 104,139 bp, 3031 bp, and 34,959 bp in length, respectively. The chloroplast genome contained 105 different genes, including 73 protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes, and 28 tRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that V. oxycoccos was closely related to V. microcarpum in the family Ericaceae. This chloroplast genome not only enriches the genome information of Vaccinium, but also will be useful in the evolution study of the family Ericaceae.
