The complete chloroplast genome of Salix cupularis Rehder, a sand binder in alpine hillslope, China

Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of Salix cupularis Rehder was assembled and subjected to phylogenetic analysis. The chloroplast genome of S. cupularis was 155,518 bp in length, containing a large single-copy region (84,373 bp), a small single-copy region (16,226 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (27,458 bp). The overall GC content of S. cupularis chloroplast genome was 36.70%. The chloroplast genome of S. cupularis contained 127 unique genes, including 82 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that S. cupularis was most related to Salix magnifica.
