Table 1. Basic characteristics of the newly sequenced plastid genomes.

  T. minutus CCALA 838 Ochromonas sp. CCMP1393
Size (bp) 120,090 126,750
Inverted repeat (bp) 9,412/ 9,411 22,910
Small single-copy region (bp) 45,210 805
Large single-copy region (bp) 56,060 80,130
Total GC content (%) 34.0 30.9
Gene content (total) 163 154
Identified protein-coding genes 129 121
Unknown or hypothetical ORFs 3 5
rRNA genes 3 3
tRNA genes 28 25

The gene counts ignore the presence of duplicated genes in inverted repeats; the split clpC_A and clpC_B genes in Trachydiscus minutus are counted as two separate genes.
