The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of spinach, Spinacia oleracea L

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) is an economically important vegetable crop. Here we describe the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of spinach, which has a length of 329,613 bp and a GC content of 43.4%. It is separated by a pair of directly repeated elements of 7286 bp, to form a large single copy...

Sumario:Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) is an economically important vegetable crop. Here we describe the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of spinach, which has a length of 329,613 bp and a GC content of 43.4%. It is separated by a pair of directly repeated elements of 7286 bp, to form a large single copy region of 229,375 bp and a small single copy region of 85,666 bp. The genome contains 29 protein-coding genes, 4 pseudogenes, 24 tRNA genes, and 3 rRNA genes. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that spinach was closely related to Beta vulgaris (sugar beet), both belonging to the Amaranthaceae family.
