Abstract

Abstract: Malus transitoria, belongs to the genus Malus of the family Rosaceae, which is native to China. In this study, our results showed the complete chloroplast genome of M. transitoria 159, 847 bp in length consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) with a length of 26, 365 bp, separating by two single-copy regions (LSC, 87, 896 bp and SSC, 19, 221 bp). In total, 112 genes was annotated comprising of 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. A total of 102 SSRs and 49 long repeats were identified in the complete chloroplast genome of M. transitoria . The phylogenetic analysis revealed that M. transitoria has a close relationship with M. yunnanensis .
