| Popis: | Dracaena fragrans is a shrub native to tropical Africa classified in the family Asparagaceae. It is a common horticultural plant grown as a hedge as well as an ornamental house plant for its green leaves, attractive shape and fragrant flowers. The species has been used for many medicinal purposes including inducing labor, treating malnutrition and fighting illness. Here, we investigated the complete plastid genome of D. fragrans using Illumina 150 bp next-generation sequencing technologies. De novo assembly and annotation showed that the chloroplast genome is a typical quadripartite structure with 37.5% GC content. A pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 26,507 bp each) were separated by one large single-copy region (LSC, 83,703 bp) and one small single-copy region (SSC, 18,466 bp). The chloroplast genome is 155,183 bp in length and contained 131 genes of which 12 are intron-containing genes, comprising 85 protein-coding, 38 tRNA, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of D. fragrans and 11 plastomes obtained from GenBank shows that it is closely related to D. elliptica. |
