RESUMO
The complete chloroplast genome of the microalgae Dunaliella salina strain SQ was determined in this study. The total length of the chloroplast genome is 243,635 bp with 29.73% GC content. The genome is composed by a small single copy (SSC) region of 101,527 bp and a large single-copy region of 107,815 bp separated by two inverted repeats (IR) regions of 17,145 bp. A total of 98 genes were annotated, including 66 coding genes, 3 rRNAs, and 29 tRNAs. This complete plastid genome can be used to elucidate genetic variations in organellar genomes between D. salina strains.
RESUMO
The complete mitochondrial genome of the microalgae Dunaliella salina strain SQ (GenBank accession number: KX641170) was de novo assembled and annotated using Illumina MiSeq sequencing data. The mitochondrial genome is 41,904 bp long with 31.85% GC content and contains 7 protein-coding genes, 16 introns, 3 ribosomal RNA genes and 3 transfer RNA genes. To date, only two complete mitochondrial genomes of Dunaliella salina strains have been reported, and this genome provides knowledge to the study of genetic variations and evolution of mitochondrial genomes of Dunaliella salina strains.
