Bletilla Striata: Complete Mitochondrial Genome Assembly and Annotation

1.9 MB of genomic resources for the medicinal orchid Bletilla striata, supporting a manuscript on its first complete mitochondrial genome. The dataset includes the finalized genome sequence, predicted coding sequences, an assembly graph, and annotation files in GenBank and GFF3 formats. Author Chenglong Yin published this dataset on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license, last updated on 2026-05-06.

Use Cases

• Comparative mitochondrial genomics analysis based on the complete genome sequence (mt.fasta).
• Gene prediction and functional annotation validation based on the provided coding sequences (cds.fa).
• Assembly graph analysis for structural variation studies based on the GFA file (Mito.gfa).
• Phylogenetic studies of Orchidaceae based on the annotated mitochondrial gene features (mt.gb, mt.gff).

Strengths

• Provides the first complete mitochondrial genome for Bletilla striata, a species used in traditional Chinese medicine.
• Includes multiple standardized genomic file formats (FASTA, GFA, GenBank, GFF3) for different analysis pipelines.
• Links to raw sequencing data under NCBI BioProject PRJNA1461179 for potential re-analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain statistical analyses.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The 1.9 MB size indicates a small-scale genomic dataset, limited to a single species' organelle genome.
