RESUMEN
The complete chloroplast genome of Quercus virginiana was sequenced with Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. It was a typical quadruple structure as other plants of Quercus with 161,221 bp in length, including a large single-copy (LSC: 90,553 bp) region and a small single-copy (SSC: 19,016 bp) which were separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRa, b: 25,826 bp) region. The overall GC content is 36.9%. A total of 131 genes was annotated which contained 86 protein-coding genes including the Trans splicing gene of rps12, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. ML phylogenetic analysis compared with 17 expressed chloroplast genomes revealed that Q. virginiana was a sister to other species of Quercus, which were grouped together with five species of Section Quercus and another 12 species of Quercus were divided into another group.
RESUMEN
The complete chloroplast genome of Catalpa 'Bairihua' a hybrid variety with multi season flowering obtained from hybrid progeny of C. bungei 'Luoqiu Sihao' (C. bungei '01' × C. bungei 'Changguo Qiu') and C. fargesii f. duclouxii was first sequenced with the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Which was 158,210 bp in length with a typical quadruple structure and contained a large single copy (LSC: 84,928 bp) region and a small single copy (SSC: 12,664 bp) region that were separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRa, b: 30,309 bp) region. The GC content of the whole chloroplast genome is 38.1%. A total of 130 genes was annotated in the complete chloroplast genome, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8rRNA genes. ML phylogenetic analysis by comparing with 39 chloroplast genomes of the Bignoniaceae indicated that Catalpa 'Bairihua' was close to Tecomaria capensis.
