Abstract excerpt
Cucurbitaceae is the fourth most important economic plant family with creeping herbaceous species mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. Here, we described and compared the complete chloroplast genome sequences of ten representative species from Cucurbitaceae. The lengths of the ten complete chloroplast genomes ranged from 155,293 bp (C. sativus) to 158,844 bp (M. charantia), and they shared the...
