RESUMO
Fraxinus malacophylla is one of the commonly used ecological restoration tree species in rocky desertification areas. It has high medicinal and timber value. And has high marketization prospects. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of F. malacophylla was generated by de novo assembly using whole-genome next generation sequencing. The complete chloroplast genome of F. malacophylla was 155621 bp in total sequence length and divided into four distinct regions: large single copy region (86404 bp), small single copy region (17821 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (25698 bp). The F. malacophylla chloroplast genome annotation predicted a total of 131 genes, consisting of 35 tRNA genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 88 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis with the reported chloroplast genomes revealed that F. malacophylla has most closely related to F. excelsior.
