Abstract
Ficus altissima plays an important role on biodiversity in tropical forests. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence and the genome features of F. altissima were analyzed using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The whole chloroplast genome sequence of F. altissima is 160,251 including a large single-copy region (LSC, 88,468 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 20,009 bp), and a pair of repeat regions (IRs, 25,887 bp, each). Further gene annotation revealed the chloroplast genome contains 124 genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. A total of 82 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were identified in the chloroplast genome. Phylogenetic development was analyzed based on F. altissima with other species of Moraceae. This information will be useful for study on the evolution and genetic diversity of F. altissima in the future.
