The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson)

摘要

The complete chloroplast genome of Palmer Amaranth Amaranthus palmeri was sequenced and assembled in this study. The genome is 150,721?bp in length and contained 129 encoded genes in total, including 84 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 37 transfer RNA genes. The phylogenetic tree based on 12 chloroplast genomes in Amaranthaceae support that A. palmeri is sister to A. hypochondriacus and A. caudatus .
