The complete chloroplast genome sequence of pomegranate ‘Bhagwa’

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: Pomegranate (Punica granatum), as one of the most important fruit trees, is widely cultivated in the tropical and subtropical of the world. In our present study, we assembled a complete chloroplast genome of an important pomegranate cultivar ‘Bhagwa’ using whole genome sequencing data previously reported. The complete cp genome is 158,641 bp in length. A total of 112 unique genes were annotated, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on complete cp genomes of Myrtales supported that P. granatum belongs to the Lythraceae family.
