Deskripsi
Camellia amplexicaulis (Pit.) Cohen-Stuart is a shrub or small tree that extensively cultivated throughout Vietnam and beyond, which is now considered to extinct in the wild. Here, the whole plastid genome of C. amplexicaulis was assembled using Illumina paired-end sequencing reads. The plastid genome is 157,203 bp in length with a typical quadripartite structure, containing two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,133 bp), a large-single copy (LSC) region (86,644 bp), and a small-single copy (SSC) region (18,293 bp). A total of 114 unique genes were encoded, of which 80 are protein-coding genes, 30 are tRNA genes, and four are rRNA genes. The phylogenetic result indicates C. amplexicaulis is closely related to Camellia szechuanensis C. W. Chi.
