Sequencing and Annotation of the Chloroplast Genome of Triticum timonovum Heslot et Ferrary

The chloroplast genome of the synthetic octaploid Triticum timonovum Heslot et Ferrary k-43065 (France) was sequenced for the first time. Plastome sequencing was carried out on a Genolab M sequencer (GeneMind, China). The genome assembly was carried out using the NOVOwrap program. The size of the chloroplast genome of T. timonovum was 136 158 bp. The length of the inverted repeat region was 21 552 bp, that of the SSC region was 12 795 bp, and the LSC length was 80 257 bp. The chloroplast genomes of T. timonovum and different T. timopheevii accessions from the GenBank database were compared. As for the chloroplast genome, T. timonovum was closer to T. timopheevii (AB976560.1) but differed from it by the presence of one insert A at position 47891.
