Deskripsi

The complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of Chenopodium glaucum, an annual halophytic herb, was determined. The plastome was 152,191 bp in size, containing a large single-copy region (83,675 bp), a small single-copy region (18,130 bp), and two inverted repeats regions (25,193 bp). The overall GC content of this plastome was 37.2%. In total, 113 unique genes were annotated including 79 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 30 tRNAs and 4 rRNAs. Phylogenomic analysis showed that C. glaucum was sister to C. album.
