Résumé
Background
Cultivar identification and the reconstruction of breeding relationships require markers that reflect both parents, yet plastome sequencing is often applied to these problems on its own.
Methods
We tested how far chloroplast data alone can go in Rubus crataegifolius Bunge, using one plant of each of eight cultivars from Korean breeding programs. Complete chloroplast genomes (155,664-155,770 bp) were assembled for all eight and compared with nuclear resequencing data from the same plants.
