Malania oleifera genome sequencing. Malania oleifera cultivar:suntouguo

We characterized the complete chloroplast genome of a critically endangered species endemic to China of the Olacaceae family, Malania oleifera Chun et S. Lee. The total length of this cp genome was 135,443 bp, including a large single copy (LSC) region of 10,408 bp, a single copy genes (SSC) region of 10,408 bp and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,324 bp. There are 98 genes in the genome, including 62 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA, and 28 tRNA genes. There were also 14 genes duplicated in the IR regions, and the overall AT content is 64.76%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that of a data set of nine cp genomes indicated that M. sciaphilum is closely related to Erythropalum scandens.
