The complete chloroplast genome sequence of a critically endangered orchid Paphiopedilum gratrixianum (Orchidaceae)

Paphiopedilum gratrixianum is a critically endangered orchid with extremely small populations and of great horticulture value. We assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of P. gratrixianum in this study. The genome is 157,292 bp in length and 35.8% of the GC content. It encodes a tot...

Sumario:Paphiopedilum gratrixianum is a critically endangered orchid with extremely small populations and of great horticulture value. We assembled and annotated the complete chloroplast genome of P. gratrixianum in this study. The genome is 157,292 bp in length and 35.8% of the GC content. It encodes a total of 102 unique genes, including 68 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis results strongly supported that it was closely related to P. tranlienianum. The complete chloroplast genome of P. gratrixianum (GenBank accession number: MW284890) can be useful for the evolutionary study in Orchidaceae.
