is an industrially relevant microalga that is used for the production of the carotenoid astaxanthin. Here, we report the use of PacBio long-read sequencing to assemble the chloroplast genome of strain UTEX:2505. At 1.35 Mb, this is the largest assembled chloroplast of any plant or alga known to date.
是一种与工业相关的微藻,用于生产类胡萝卜素虾青素。在此,我们报告了使用PacBio长读长测序来组装菌株UTEX:2505的叶绿体基因组。该基因组大小为1.35 Mb,是迄今为止已知的任何植物或藻类中组装出的最大叶绿体基因组。
