Research uncovers the chloroplast genome sequence of Populus × beijingensis, highlighting its genetic makeup and implications for ecological studies.
This study examines the chloroplast genome of Populus × beijingensis, a deciduous tree species from the genus Populus in the Salicaceae family, which is highly valued for its ecological and economic significance. The sequencing result shows that the chloroplast genome of P.×beijingensis is approximately 157,070 base pairs (bp) in length, with the large single-copy (LSC) region being 85,192 bp and the small single-copy (SSC) region at 16,564 bp. It encodes a total of 128 genes, comprising 84 protein-coding genes, 36 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. This research establishes a foundation for future studies on the genetic diversity and ecological adaptation of P.×beijingensis and other Populus species.
