Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Asplenium nidus (Aspleniaceae), an economically important foliage fern

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

It is first reported on complete chloroplast genome of Asplenium nidus, an economically important fern. The genome is 156,173 bp in length with 40.8% GC content, comprising a pair of inverted repeats (22,834 bp for each) separated by a large single copy (89,014 bp) and a small single copy (21,491 bp) region. It encodes 130 genes, including 88 protein-coding genes, 33 tRNA genes, eight rRNA genes, and one pseudogene. The maximum-likelihood tree shows that A. nidus is sister to A. prolongatum with 100% support value. The complete chloroplast genome of A. nidus provides powerful valuable molecular data to address classification issues of Asplenium.
