Abstract
Casuarina glauca, commonly known as swamp oak, belongs to Casuarinaceae. Herein, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of C. glauca. To our knowledge, this is the first reported complete chloroplast genome of Casuarinaceae species. The complete chloroplast genome of C. glauca is 155,669 bp in length with a typical quadripartite structure, consisting of a large single-copy region (LSC, 85,823 bp), a single-copy region (SSC, 25,694 bp) and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 18,461 bp). There are 130 genes annotated, including 85 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 36 transfer RNA genes. To investigate the evolution status of C. glauca, as well as Casuarinaceae, we constructed a phylogenetic tree with C. glauca and other 16 species based on their complete chloroplast genomes. According to the phylogenetic topologies, C. glauca was closely related to Betulaceae.
