Abstract

Ficus tinctoria subsp. gibbosa (Blume) Corner is a hemiepiphytic dioecious fig species of the genus Ficus in the family Moraceae. To better determine its phylogenetic location with respect to the other Ficus species, the complete plastid genome of F. tinctoria was sequenced. The whole plastome is 160,342 bp in length, consisting of a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,859 bp, one large single-copy (LSC) region of 88,526 bp, and one small single-copy (SSC) region of 20,098 bp. The overall GC content of the whole plastome is 35.9%. Further, maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analyze was conducted using 23 complete fig plastomes, which support close relationships among F. tinctoria, F. heteropleura, F. obscura, and F. deltoidea.
