The chloroplast genome of Archontophoenix alexandrae (Arecaceae): an important landscape tree for the subtropics

Archontophoenix alexandrae, known as king palm, is an important landscape tree for the subtropics and potential sources of dietary fiber. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of A. alexandrae was determined through Illumina sequencing method. The chloroplast genome was 159,196 bp in length...

Sumario:Archontophoenix alexandrae, known as king palm, is an important landscape tree for the subtropics and potential sources of dietary fiber. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of A. alexandrae was determined through Illumina sequencing method. The chloroplast genome was 159,196 bp in length and contained a small single-copy region (17,763 bp), a large single-copy region (87,055 bp) and a pair of IR regions (27,189 bp). 135 genes were determined in the A. alexandrae chloroplast genome, including 86 CDS, 39 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Archontophoenix alexandrae showed the closest relationship with Veitchia arecina in the phylogenetic analysis.
