Bouché is an important germplasm resource used for rootstock and hypoglycemic food in Cucurbitaceae. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of has been determined in this study. The total genome size is 157,533 bp in length and contains a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,639 bp, which were separated by large single copy (LSC) and small single copy (SSC) of 88,112 bp and 18,143 bp, respectively. A total of 130 genes were predicted including 86 protein-coding genes, eight rRNA genes and 36 tRNA genes. Further, Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis revealed that is a base clade of genus Cucurbita and closer to Cucurbita maxima. The chloroplast genome of would promote the germplasm exploration, phylogenetic relationships, and molecular biology researches in Cucurbita.
布歇是葫芦科中用于砧木和降血糖食品的重要种质资源。本研究已确定了其完整的叶绿体基因组序列。基因组全长157,533 bp，包含一对25,639 bp的反向重复序列（IRs），它们分别被88,112 bp的大单拷贝（LSC）和18,143 bp的小单拷贝（SSC）隔开。共预测到130个基因，包括86个蛋白质编码基因、8个rRNA基因和36个tRNA基因。此外，最大似然系统发育分析表明，它是南瓜属的一个基部类群，与笋瓜关系更近。布歇的叶绿体基因组将促进南瓜属的种质探索、系统发育关系和分子生物学研究。
