Abstract

The complete plastome sequence of Microlicia cogniauxiana R. Romero (Melastomataceae) (NCBI accession number MK726004), a plant endemic to the campos rupestres formations of the Brazilian savannahs, is presented in this study. A genomic unit is 155,883 bp in length, comprising 130 genes, 85 DNA coding sequences, 37 tRNAs, eight rRNAs, and 23 introns, and a GC content of 37%. We recovered a large single-copy (85,691 bp), a small single-copy (16,859 bp), and two inverted repeats (26,667 bp). The M. cogniauxiana plastome resembles the ancestral organization of plastomes of flowering plants, including those of other genera of Melastomataceae.
