Abstract excerpt
The complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of potato Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desiree was determined. The circular double-stranded DNA, which consists of 155,312 bp, contains a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRa, IRb) of 25,595 bp each. The inverted repeat regions are separated by small and large single copy regions of 18,373 and 85,749 bp, respectively. The genome contains 79 proteins, 30...
