Objective:
Mitochondrial genome sequences are very useful for understanding the mitogenome evolution itself and reconstructing phylogeny of different plant lineages. Bauhinia purpurea, a species from the legume family Leguminosae, is widely distributed in South China and has high ornamental value. Here, we sequenced and assembled the mitogenome of B. purpurea to provide a useful genetic resource for further evolutionary studies.
Data Description:
We assembled and characterized the complete mitogenome of B. purpurea based on Illumina sequence data. The mitogenome size was 525,727 bp, and its GC content was 45.38%. A total of 35 protein-coding genes, 16 tRNA genes, and 3 rRNA genes were identified in the mitogenome. We also identified 124 pairs of repeats and 6 mitogenome sequences of plastid origin (MTPTs). These MTPTs range from 108 bp to 751 bp, covering 0.65% of the mitogenome.
