Complete chloroplast genome of , a SALB-resistant relative wild species of rubber tree.

is a SALB-resistant wild species of , the only source of mass production of high quality natural rubber. This study sequenced and analyzed the chloroplast genome of . The chloroplast genome of contains 161,124 bp and consists of 51,495 bp of A (31.96%), 52,022 bp of T (32.29%), 28,915 bp of G (17.95%), and 28,692 bp of C (17.81%). The ring-shaped genome includes four regions: a large single-copy region (LSC, 89,110 bp), a small single copy (SSC, 18,376 bp) region, and two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 26,819 bp). A total of 134 genes were annotated, of which 86 encode proteins; four are pseudogenes; 36 are tRNA genes, and eight are rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analyses showed that is very closely related to , this result indicates that is highly valuable for the breeding of SALB-resistant varieties of rubber trees.
