The First Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Boswellia sacra, a Resin-Producing Plant in Oman.
Boswellia sacra (Burseraceae), a keystone endemic species, is famous for the production of fragrant oleo-gum resin. However, the genetic make-up especially the genomic information about chloroplast is still unknown. Here, we described for the first time the chloroplast (cp) genome of B. sacra. The c...
