Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequences of Four Meliaceae Species and Comparative Analyses.

The Meliaceae family mainly consists of trees and shrubs with a pantropical distribution. In this study, the complete chloroplast genomes of four Meliaceae species were sequenced and compared with each other and with the previously published plastome. The five plastomes are circular and exhibit a quadripartite structure with high conservation of gene content and order.
