Abstract
The whole chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of Carrierea calycina has been characterized using Illumina pair-end sequencing. The complete cp genome was 158,085 bp in length, containing a large single copy region (LSC) of 84,663 bp, and a small single copy region (SSC) of 17,570 bp, which were separated by a pair of 27,926 bp inverted repeat regions (IRs). The genome contained 129 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content of C. calycina cp genome is 36.8%, whereas the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 34.8%, 30.3%, and 41.8%, respectively. Further, phylogenetic analysis suggested that the location of C. calycina is out of the Idesia polycarpa and it is an outgroup to the genera of Salix and Populus.
