The complete chloroplast genome of a centennial olive tree (Olea europaea, Oleaceae) from the southern Peruvian coast

Le résumé fourni par la source

Olive ( Olea europaea Linaeus 1753) is one of the valuable fruit trees and very important edible oil plant in the world. The chloroplast (cp) genome of an olive tree ( Olea europaea) from the southern Peruvian arid coast was obtained for the first time. Genomic DNA of high quality was used to generate librarieswith Illumina Hiseq paired-end methods. The cp genome is 155,886 pb in length and contains a large single-copy region (LSC) of 86,610 pb and a small single copy region (SSC) of 17,790 pb separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions (25,741bp). The cp genome of olive contains 124 genes that consists of 80 protein-coding genes, 36 tRNA, eight rRNA. Phylogenetic analysis showed this olive tree is sister to O. europaea subsp. maroccana ( Oleeae tribe). This study presents the first overview of the chloroplast genome organization and phylogenetics of O. europaea , offering valuable insights for genetic and evolutionary research in the genus Olea.
