The chloroplast genome of Moringa oleifera (Moringaceae).

Moringa oleifera is a small to medium-sized, evergreen or deciduous tree that native to northern India, Pakistan and Nepal. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome sequence of M. oleifera for the first time (accession number of MH778650), and it is also the first reported chloroplast genome of Moringaceae. The chloroplast genome is 160,599 bp long and includes 113 genes. Its LSC, SSC and IR regions are 88,933, 19,482 and 26,092 bp long, respectively. Phylogenetic tree analysis exhibited that M. oleifera was clustered with other Moringaceae species with 100% bootstrap values. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
