Plastid genomes and 45S nuclear rDNA cistrons of six <i>Polyscias </i>species assembled from publicly available SRA data

<pre><pre>Twelve annotated nucleotide assemblies for six Polyscias (Araliaceae) species: six complete plastid (chloroplast) genomes (~156 kb each) and six complete 45S nuclear ribosomal DNA cistrons (18S-ITS1-5.8S-ITS2-26S; ~5.8 kb each).<br><br>Every sequence was assembled by the authors from third-party, publicly available SRA reads that were generated by other groups; the source SRA run for each sequence is given in the FASTA header and in sample_metadata.tsv.

Because the underlying reads were not generated by the authors, these derived assemblies are eligible for INSDC deposition only as Third Party Assembly (TPA:assembly) records and INSDC accessions may not be available for them; they are archived here so the results remain openly available, citable and reproducible.<br><br>Files: FASTA sequences; NCBI 5-column feature tables (.tbl) and GenBank flatfiles (.gbf) with full annotation; per-sequence metadata (sample_metadata.tsv); README.<br><br>Assembly programs: plastid genomes - dnaLCW v4.21 (Illumina) and GetOrganelle v1.7.7.1 (PacBio HiFi); 45S nrDNA - dnaLCW v4.21 (Illumina) and hifiasm v0.25.0 (PacBio HiFi).
