Abstract

The complete cp genome of Cerasus dictyoneura was 158,084 bp in length, consisting of a LSC of 86,275 bp and a SSC of 19,039 bp, which were separated by a pair of 26,385 bp IRs. The genome contained 131 genes, including 86 proteincoding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The overall GC content is 36.7%, while the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 34.6, 29.5, and 42.6%, respectively. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis based on 16 complete cp genome sequences indicated that C. dictyoneura is within Eurosids I.
