The chloroplast genome of the Malus kansuensis, an important apple rootstock native to China, was sequenced and assembled. A total of 129 functional genes were predicted, including protein-coding genes, tRNA genes, and rRNA genes, showing consistency with traditional taxonomy.
The Malus kansuensis belongs to the Malus genus of Rosaceae family and it is an important apple rootstock resource native to China. Here, its complete chloroplast genome was sequenced and assembled by high-throughput Illumina sequencing data. The DNA was circular in shape with 160,133 bp length, containing IRA and IRB inverted repeat regions (26,354 bp), large single-copy region (LSC) (88,141 bp), and small single-copy region (SSC)(19,284 bp). In the chloroplast genome, 129 functional genes were predicted, including 85 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic tree basically accords with the traditional taxonomy of the order Malus genus of Rosaceae family.
