Abstract excerpt
The complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) was determined. It consists of 141,182 base-pairs (bp), containing a pair of inverted repeat regions (IR(A), IR(B)) of 22,794 bp each. The IR(A) and IR(B) sequences separate a small single copy region (12,546 bp) and a large single copy (83,048 bp) region. The gene content and relative arrangement of the 116 identified...
