Complete chloroplast genome of medicinally important poisonous shrub Adenium obesum (Forssk.) Roem. & Schult. (Apocynaceae)

Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of medicinally important plant Adenium obseum (Forssk.) Roem. & Schult. (Apocynaceae) was sequenced. A total of 5,028,192,488 paired-end reads were obtained. One-hundred-and-twenty-seven unique coding genes including 96 protein-coding, 28 tRNA, and 3 rRNA genes were annotated. The length and GC content of the plastome were 154,437 bp (GenBank accession number MN765097) and 38.1%, respectively.
