Abstract

Nymphaea atrans belongs to the subgenus Anecphya and displays varied flower colors over successive days. Because of its excellent ornamental characteristics, this species is widely cultivated in waterscape gardens worldwide. Here, we have sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of N. atrans. The whole genome size is 160,990 bp in length with four subregions: large and small single-copy regions of 90,879 and 19,699 bp, respectively, separated by a pair of inverted repeat regions of 25,206 bp each. A total of 126 genes were annotated, including 82 coding genes, eight ribosomal RNAs, and 36 transfer RNAs. The total GC content of the complete genome was 39%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that N. atrans was closely related to N. immutabilis. In this study, we have provided the chloroplast genome of N. atrans as a valuable resource for further phylogenetic analysis of Nymphaea species.
