Chloroplast genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of Brassica tournefortii Gouan (Brassicaceae)

This study reported the chloroplast genome of Brassica tournefortii Gouan (Brassicaceae). The chloroplast genome was 153,167 bp, including a large single copy region of 83,247 bp, a small single copy region of 17,816 bp, and two inverted repeat regions of 26,052 bp. It contains 129 genes, comprising 84 coding sequences (CDSs), 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis of 78 CDSs showed B. tournefortii closely related to B. carinata A.Braun and B. nigra (L.) W.D.J.Koch. These findings provide essential chloroplast genome data for B. tournefortii, supporting research on species identification, evolutionary studies, and understanding species invasion mechanisms.
