Abstract
Morinda parvifolia is a traditional medicinal plant of the family Rubiaceae. In the current study, the complete chloroplast genome of M. parvifolia was sequenced and reported for the first time. The genome is 153,069 bp in total length, containing two inverted repeats (IR) regions of 25822 bp which were separated by a large single copy (LSC) region of 83813 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 17612 bp. A total of 131 gene species were annotated, including 86 protein-coding genes,37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the genome is 38.07%. The phylogenetic analysis based on the complete chloroplast genome reveals that M. parvifolia is closely related to Morinda officinalis. This study enriches the genetic information of M. parvifolia as well as for the phylogenetic studies for Rubiaceae.
